Based on the novels: The warden / by Anthony Trollope & Barchester Towers / by Anthony Trollope.
Originally produced as a television mini-series in 1982.
Special features (ca. 30 min.): "Middle England's marvel," a commemorative profile of Peterborough Cathedral as it celebrated its 750th anniversary in 1989; cast & author bios.
The cozy community of Barchester is rocked from its complacency when a crusade against the Church of England's practice of self-enrichment misfires.
