Daniel Deronda
Created by Andrew Davies
On BBC One
A stately Victorian literary adaptation exploring identity, duty, and romantic entanglement across a small cast of interconnected lives.
In 1870s England, idealist Daniel Deronda seeks his mysterious origins and becomes entangled in the lives of the self-centered Gwendolen Harleth, who is trapped in a loveless marriage, and Jewish singer Mirah Lapidoth.
