Show Guide: 'The Trial Of Christine Keeler'

Synopsis: The Trial of Christine Keeler takes us behind the headlines to tell a human story about the sexual and cultural politics of one of the most revealing and iconic stories of modern times. At the center of the storm was 19-year-old Christine Keeler (Sophie Cookson, The Confessions of Frannie Langton)  – a young woman who the powerful, male-dominated establishment sought to silence and exploit, but who refused to play by their rules. Written by BAFTA award-winning novelist and screenwriter Amanda Coe (Apple Tree Yard) and directed by Andrea Harkin (The Girlfriend), this six-part drama takes a fresh look at one of the most infamous British stories: the chain of events in the 1960s that came to be known as the Profumo affair.
