Taboo
Taboo is a BBC drama series produced by Scott Free London and Hardy Son & Baker. The eight-episode series was created by Steven Knight, Tom Hardy and his father, Chips Hardy, based on a story written by Tom and Chips Hardy. It premiered on BBC One in the United Kingdom on 7 January 2017 and on FX in the United States on 10 January 2017. In 1814, following the death of his father and with Britain's war of 1812 with the United States drawing to a close, adventurer and businessman James Delaney (Tom Hardy) returns to England after twelve years in Africa. The series explores the dark side of 19th-century London: political and business corruption involving the East India Company, criminal gangs and the misery of the working class. Jessie Buckley plays Lorna, the widow of James's father; Oona Chaplin plays his sister Zilpha; Mark Gatiss is the Prince Regent; Tom Hollander plays the chemist George Cholmondeley; and Stephen Graham plays Atticus, an underworld informant. Kristoffer Nyholm and Anders Engström each directed four episodes, and Max Richter composed the score. Reviews were generally favourable, praising Hardy's performance, the visuals and the pacing. A second series was announced in 2017, but its release date remains unknown.
