Home & Away, set in Ancient China’s Forbidden City. Everybody wearing floor length silk bathrobes and enough gold hairpins to stock a medium sized sunburst. The murders, the romances (appropriate & inappropriate), the betrayals, the promises of undying loyalty which promptly get broken. Gorgeous sets. Pregnancies galore. And EVERYBODY has perfect hair & makeup except those that have gone mad and been locked up for life (before the Emperor sends them a dose of poison via his favorite eunuch). This one was the Legend of Zhen Huan.
8/10 politely spiteful catty remarks - the kind that draw blood.
