Summary:
"As the most opulent hotel in Manchester, England, during the decadent Roaring '20s, The
Grand
is more than a building. It's a nexus for schemes, scandals, romance, and intrigue. For owner John Bannerman, The
Grand
symbolizes a tradition of luxury and elegance begun by his father. For Marcus Bannerman, it becomes a risky investment and a way to entice his brother's wife into bed. And for the maids and porters employed there, it represents a possible escape from their hardscrabble pasts - and an endless source of backstairs gossip. Written by Russell T. Davies (Doctor Who, Touching Evil) and featuring three-time Emmy-winner Susan Hampshire, this is addictive period drama in the tradition of Upstairs, Downstairs and The Duchess of Duke Street. Divided by class and circumstance or tied together by love and loyalty, the myriad characters who populate The
Grand
prove unforgettable."--Container.
