The Barchester Chronicles is a 1982 BBC television drama series adapted from Anthony Trollope’s novels and set in the fictional English cathedral town of Barchester. The story follows a decent middle-aged clergyman caught in a moral crisis when a lawsuit aimed at church reform forces him into conflict with his pompous son-in-law, an archdeacon. When a new bishop arrives with his imperious wife and a devious chaplain, the narrative transforms into a satirical exploration of power struggles among the town’s clergy and citizens, filled with dry wit and Byzantine scheming that proves both darkly comic and deeply engaging.

This BBC Video release comes on 2 DVDs with a total runtime of 6 hours and 25 minutes and carries an NR rating. The ensemble cast includes Donald Pleasence, Nigel Hawthorne, Geraldine McEwan, Alan Rickman in one of his early roles, Angela Pleasence, and Susan Hampshire, with direction by David Giles and writing by Alan Plater and Anthony Trollope.
