If you missed the gorgeous feature-length adaptation of Daphne du Maurier’s classic novel The Scapegoat on ITV1 on Sunday 9th September, be sure to catch up on ITV player.
Written and directed by Charles Sturridge, it stars Matthew Rhys, Dame Eileen Atkins, Sheridan Smith, Johdi May and Phoebe Nicholls.
The story is set in England at the time of the coronation of Elizabeth II and begins with the chance meeting of two men who look uncannily alike.
Gripping and complex, The Scapegoat is a masterful exploration of double identity, and of the dark side of the self. Filled with du Maurier’s trademark elements of suspense, dark humour and unexpected twists it is a wonderful story in the tradition of Don’t Look Now, Rebecca and The Birds.
