The Mitford Girls

Sarah Williams’ new truth-based six-part series Outrageous, about the infamous Mitford sisters, is set to premiere this coming summer on BritBox in the U.S. and on U&Drama in the U.K. Billed as an “epic tale of sibling rivalry and political radicalisation,” Outrageous takes place in upper crust Britain, where old social orders are crumbling and a group of headstrong, rebellious sisters set out to change the world, with sometimes devastating consequences. The show explores how and why these women, unwilling to conform, were so ahead of their time – and what drove them to take their very different, complex and often dangerous paths. A family saga like no other, this is the Mitfords as they really were: unapologetic, outrageous and utterly human.
