Based on the classic novels by Nobel Prize-winning author John Galsworthy, The Forsyte Saga is an epic series spanning three generations of the powerful Forsyte family at the turn of the 20th century. Superior, arrogant, and confident on the surface, a festering core of unhappy and brutal relationships lies beneath the family's imposing veneer. The legacy begins with Soames Forsyte (Damian Lewis, Homeland, Wolf Hall), a rich and successful partner in the family law firm and staunch upholder of the old moral code. His fiery relationship with his beautiful wife, Irene (Gina McKee, Notting Hill), leads her to embark on a passionate affair that tears the Forsyte family apart in a bitter feud. Also starring Rupert Graves (Sherlock), and Ioan Gruffudd (Black Hawk Down), with Corin Redgrave and Gillian Kearney.
