Casanova
Created by Russell T Davies
On BBC Three
A brisk, burlesque-tinged miniseries that frames Casanova's legendary seductions as a melancholic meditation on love and aging, told with warmth and playful irreverence.
Castle Dux, Bohemia, 1798. Casanova, now a penniless librarian in his seventies, tells Edith, a young kitchen maid in the castle, his remarkable life story, and about falling in love with Henriette.
