Synopsis by Mark Deming
John Galsworthy's epic tale of love, conflict, and dark secrets continues in this made-for-television adaptation of To Let, the final novel in Galsworthy's "Forsythe" trilogy. The Forsyte Saga: Series 2 focuses on Fleur (Emma Griffiths Malin), daughter of Soames Forsythe (Damian Lewis), and Jon (Lee Williams), son of Irene Heron (Gina McKee), who was once married to Soames. Fleur and Jon's friendship has blossomed into love, but while they're aware of the bad blood between their divorced parents, they have yet to uncover the secret that has led to the long-standing bitterness between the Forsythe and Heron families. A tremendous hit on British television, The Forsyte Saga: Series 2 was first aired in the United States as part of the award-winning anthology series Masterpiece Theatre.
