Editorial Review:

Description:
Jonny Lee Miller, Natasha Little and Oscar(R)-winner Vanessa Redgrave star in the dramatic, true story of Lord Byron, the greatest romantic poet of his age, whose life was even more adventurous and scandalous than the heroes of his epic poems. A wildly successful poet, notorious lover, political radical, wit and foreign adventurer, Byron was a figure who defined the romantic spirit of the early 19th Century in the most reckless and brazen terms. Here is a man who hurls himself into every imaginable experience but cannot find fulfilment in any of them. In five days, he rises from obscurity to superstar status, invited to parties everywhere and pursued by women determined to get close to the sexiest and most exciting man in England. But at the height of his fame, Byron throws it all away in a scandal that ultimately forced him to flee the country. After a brief fling with an Italian countess, he dies helping the Greek fight for independence. Relive the true story of one of history's greatest romantic and tragic heroes in this moving drama from the BBC.
