What is The Forsytes Season 3 about?

The casino, the beach, and a luxurious hotel are all settings for this third chapter in writer Debbie Horsfield‘s reimagining of John Galsworthy’s The Forsyte Saga novels.”

“It’s been an absolute treat to take the Forsytes on a roller-coaster ride of intrigue, glamour, romantic encounters, and shock revelations, all played out against the sun-drenched Mediterranean at the height of the Belle Époque,” said Writer and executive producer Debbie Horsfield. “We hope audiences will enjoy watching our characters bask in the pleasures of the Riviera whilst grappling with the curve balls which fate inevitably throws their way.”
