6 x 30 Docusoap

THE DUCHESS follows the aristocratic lives of the Duke and Duchess of Rutland who live at Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire.
We have been given unrivalled – and exclusive - access to the Duke, the Duchess, and all the castle staff.
We will experience life on this historic estate with the Duchess as she juggles family life and her five children with her efforts to increase revenue at the castle. The Duke understands the necessity to have his castle open to the public, but sometimes would rather it wasn’t.
The Duke and the Duchess will be joined ‘on screen’ by the ‘front of house team’ – who must make sure the public and private sides of life at Belvoir don’t clash. We also feature the private staff including Gemma, the children’s nanny, and Mr. Horton, the family butler.
