Anatomy of a Scandal, starring Sienna Miller (Factory Girl) and Michelle Dockery (Downton Abbey), is a psychological thriller and gripping courtroom drama that explores themes of consent, entitlement, and trauma. Once you start it, you’ll need to keep going. 

The series infiltrates Britain’s elite through personal and political scandal, where the truth lies between justice and privilege. James and Sophie Whitehouse live in a blissful and rarified world. A Minister in Parliament, a loving family at home, James’ trajectory appears without limits. Until a scandalous secret suddenly comes to light. Barrister Kate Woodcroft has a trajectory of her own, and her prosecution threatens to tear into Westminster, the Whitehouse marriage, and her own personal esteem.

Based on the international bestselling novel of the same name by Sarah Vaughan, this powerful series with knockout performances is an enthralling bingeable watch.
