Description
'Threads of romance, social comment, country lore and intrigue both above and below stairs are cunningly worked together to create a brilliant tapestry' Sunday TelegraphIt is 1913 - a breath away from the Great War - and Edwardian England is about to vanish into history.
An assorted group of men and women gather at Sir Randolph Nettleby's estate for a shooting party.
Opulent, adulterous, moving assuredly through the rituals of eating and slaughter, they are an era's dazzlingly obtuse and brilliantly decorative finale. A quiet, elegant meditation on class frustration and the transience of human concern, The Shooting Party is also the inspiration behind one of the great landmarks of popular culture - Downtown Abbey.
