What Happened
ITV has launched a new four-part true-crime drama titled The Lady, which dramatizes the life of Jane Andrews, a former personal dresser to Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York. The series stars Mia McKenna-Bruce as Andrews and Natalie Dormer as Ferguson. It explores Andrews’ rise from a small town in Grimsby to the royal household, culminating in her conviction for the murder of her boyfriend, Thomas Cressman, in 2001.
Why It Matters
Writer Debbie O’Malley emphasized that the series delves into themes of female ambition, human frailty, and the societal implications of class and royalty, making the story relevant even two decades after the events. The drama not only recounts a sensational crime but also reflects on broader societal issues that resonate with contemporary audiences.
What’s Next
Viewers can catch new episodes of The Lady on ITV1 and ITVx. Despite the show’s intriguing premise, promotional efforts have been subdued, particularly following Natalie Dormer’s withdrawal from the publicity circuit due to recent revelations regarding Ferguson’s past connections with Jeffrey Epstein.
