Matthew Goode (Match Point) stars as Gerald Brenan and James Fleet (Vicar of Dibley, Four Wedding as and a Funeral) as Lytton Strachey. Gerald is forced into facing his feelings and confronting the machinations of the town's women- all of whom are mapping a future with him. What he wants more than anything is Romance. How far from this class and country doe he have to go to get this? A period romance with a light-hearted humour.
