Storyline
Set against the sweeping grandeur of the Himalayas and tea plantations of Northern India, the drama tells the rich and explosive story of the decline of the British Empire and the birth of modern India, from both sides of the experience. But at the heart of the story lie the implications and ramifications of the tangled web of passions, rivalries and clashes that define the lives of those brought together in this summer which will change everything. It's the summer of 1932. India dreams of Independence, but the British are clinging to power. In the foothills of the Himalayas stands Simla; a little England where every summer the British power-brokers of this nation are posted to govern during the summer months. Written by Channel4

Each episode builds on the one before it. It is stunning.
I'm not going to give any spoilers away, but this is the most visually astounding thing I've ever seen come out of UK, and that includes Downton Abbey.
The acting is amazing, there are so many strong performances that it's impossible to pick out just one; the storyline riveting, the costumes are pitch-perfect, and there's more than a little sex, drinking, and romance.
The tension is palpable, and if you know anything about history, you know why.
Don't miss it, watch it twice. It's a feast.
