The Gilded Age
WEDNESDAY, PARAMOUNT+
From the man behind Downton Abbey comes another sumptuous, soapy saga, this time set in 1880s New York, when industrialisation saw the economy soar and traditions upturned. Like any good period piece, there are fantastic frocks and detailed design elements. Add to that Julian Fellowes’ sparkling dialogue and an impressive cast led by Christine Baranski and Cynthia Nixon, Louisa Jacobson and Denee Benton (pictured).
