A new adaptation of Thomas Hardy’s heartbreaking novel about a woman violated by one man and forsaken by another. Gemma Arterton stars as Tess.

Violated by one man, forsaken by another, Tess Durbeyfield is the magnificent and spirited heroine of Thomas Hardy's heartbreaking novel. Set in England's West Country in the late 1800s, the two part miniseries stars Gemma Arterton (James Bond: Quantum of Solace ) as Tess, joined by Hans Matheson (Dr. Zhivago ) as her seducer, Alec, and Eddie Redmayne (Elizabeth: The Golden Age ) as Angel, the idealistic and self-deserving man she loves.
