Margot examines the glamorous and turbulent life of Britains first international ballet superstar. At the age of 40, Dame Margot Fonteyn (Anne-Marie Duff The Virgin Queen; Shameless) was seemingly at her creative peak and under mounting pressure to retire gracefully. Her unexpected pairing with young Russian émigré Rudolph Nureyev (Michiel Huisman The Young Victoria, De Co-assistant) caused a worldwide sensation. Whilst Margots marriage to Panamanian diplomat Roberto de Arias (Con ONeill Telstar, Criminal Justice) was put under immense strain, her passionate and vibrant relationship with Nureyev created one of the most enduring and celebrated ballet partnerships of all time. This is a timeless drama about love, passion and performance also starring Lindsay Duncan, Derek Jacobi and Penelope Wilton.
