A raw and passionate three-part adaptation of one of Dickens' finest novels starring Ray Winstone, Douglas Booth, Gillian Anderson and David Suchet. In episode one a terrifying encounter on the marshes with an escaped convict and a summons by the mysterious Miss Havisham (Gillian Anderson) are enough to change orphan Pip's (Oscar Kennedy and Douglas Booth) life forever. He dares to believe he might be destined for a future beyond the marshes - a future linked to that of Miss Havisham's daughter, the beautiful Estella (Vanessa Kirby). Part thriller, part mystery, Great Expectations is an epic tale of obsession, corruption, revenge, redemption and forgiveness. With the shadow of the gallows always present, this is a story of what we will do, what we will risk, and just how far we will go for love.
