In 1666, against the decadent backdrop of King Charles II’s court and centering on the circumstances that lead to the catastrophic fire, Thomas Farriner deals with family at the bakery in Pudding Lane, the playboy King’s extravagant lifestyle, and Farriner’s complex relationship with his fictional sister-in-law, Sarah.
Not for laughs, comfort or warmth.
