Plot Synopsis

BELGRAVIA: THE NEXT CHAPTER is an eight-episode period drama that picks up in 1871, three decades after the events depicted in BELGRAVIA, the TV series that was named for -- and set in -- the affluent London district that became synonymous with the upper echelons of London society in the 19th century.
