Win a copy of the new BBC 1 series Decline and Fall on DVD
The quintessentially British comedy Decline and Fall aired on BBC One this spring to great acclaim. Adapted for the first time on TV from Evelyn Waugh’s classic satire, it stars renowned comedian Jack Whitehall (Bad Education), Hollywood’s favorite Desperate Housewife Eva Longoria and one of Britain’s greatest stage and screen actors, David Suchet (Agatha Christie’s Poirot).
Set for a quiet life of contemplation as a priest, Paul Pennyfeather (Whitehall) is shocked when he is unceremoniously expelled from Oxford University through no fault of his own. Without a private fortune to fall back on, Paul is forced to take up a teaching position at a substandard boarding school in rural Wales. But it soon becomes apparent that Paul is not a natural disciplinarian and he finds scant comfort in drinking to excess with the other teachers. When Paul meets Margot Beste-Chetwynde (Longoria), a wealthy widow and mother of one of his pupils, things start to look up. Could his fortunes finally be changing?
