NOW A MAJOR ITV SUNDAY NIGHT DRAMAThe brand new story from Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes, set in 1840s London

Nel giugno del 1815, Bruxelles è un luogo incantevole, con mercati affollati e carrozze colorate. Durante il ballo della duchessa di Richmond, partecipano alti ufficiali dell'esercito del duca di Wellington, tra cui Lord Edmund Bellasis, erede di una delle famiglie più importanti della Gran Bretagna. Lord Bellasis si presenta con Sophia Trenchard, bella e ambiziosa figlia di un commerciante che, partendo da una bancarella, ha raggiunto una notevole ascesa sociale. Durante la serata, un aiutante di campo irrompe con una missiva che annuncia l'invasione delle truppe francesi, costringendo gli ufficiali a lasciare il ballo. Le eleganti sale, un tempo piene di fiori, diventano teatro di strazianti commiati, incluso quello tra Sophia e Lord Bellasis, ignari del futuro che li attende. Venticinque anni dopo, i Trenchard vivono a Belgravia, un quartiere costruito da James, che ha fatto fortuna nell'edilizia. Non lontano, risiede la famiglia dei conti di Brockenhurst, genitori di Edmund Bellasis. Le due famiglie, apparentemente distanti per estrazione sociale, sono unite da un segreto che suscita curiosità nei salotti londinesi, dando vita a pettegolezzi e a una serie di eventi ricchi di colpi di scena e rivelazioni.

Belgravia beginnt am Vorabend der Schlacht von Waterloo, dem 15. Juni 1815, als in Brüssel die Herzogin von Richmond einen prächtigen Ball für den Herzog von Wellington gibt. Kurz nach Mitternacht kommt die Nachricht, dass Napoleon unerwartet die Grenze überschritten hat. Wellington und seine Truppen müssen umgehend in die Schlacht ziehen. Eingeladen zum Ball sind auch die Trenchards, die durch Geschäfte mit der Armee reich geworden sind. Auf ihre schöne Tochter Sophia hat Edmund Bellasis, der Sohn und Erbe einer der prominentesten Familien des Landes, ein Auge geworfen. Nach diesem Abend wird nichts mehr so sein wie zuvor. Fünfundzwanzig Jahre später werden die beiden Familien noch immer von dem dunklen Geheimnis verfolgt, das am Vorabend der Schlacht von Waterloo seinen Anfang nahm.
