An epic 14-hour dramatization of the twilight of British rule in India, told from the often-intertwined points of view of rulers and the ruled. Based on Paul Scott's 'Raj Quartet' novels (and made not long after Hollywood had success with 'Gandhi' and 'A Passage to India'), the miniseries won an Emmy and a Peabody Award following its airing on 'Masterpiece Theatre.' The year before, it won a British Academy of Film and Television (BAFTA) Award.
