I have watched this Granada television adaptation of the wonderful Raj quartet by Paul Scott many times and am always moved to tears. The tragic story of a romance between an English woman and an Indian man in India during colonial British rule runs parallel to the story of the doomed relationship between ruler (Britain) and ruled (India) as the Raj ends. The story addresses questions of identity, Hindu-Muslim relations, British paternalism and more. The acting is amazing, the script intelligent and the glimpse into another more exotic time and place intoxicating. No wonder it was voted one of the top ten Masterpiece Theaters of all time.
