Beechan House starting on ITV on Sunday at 9pm could be of interest. 6 part drama with the second episode on Monday. Period drama, set in 18th-century Delhi, years before the territory fell under British colonial rule. John Beecham (Tom Bateman), a former soldier for the East India Company, buys a mansion in the area in the hope of starting a new life. His shadowy past is soon the talk of the household, particularly since he arrives accompanied by a mysterious child of unknown parentage.
It's ITV's response to BBC's Poldark (which I think starts on the following Sunday. Also aimed at fans of Downton Abbey though it's said to be closer to Downstairs and Upstairs as the servants and Indians are as key to the drama as the British people.
Behind it as producer, co-writer and director is Gurinder Chadha. She made Bend it Like Beckham and Bride & Prejudice. The series has also got Lesley Nicol (she was Mrs Patmore in Downton Abbey) and Dakota Blue Richards (WPC Shirley Trewlove who left Endeavour).
