Summary

Based on author and naturalist Gerald Durrell's much-loved Corfu trilogy of novels, The Durrells in Corfu sees impoverished-but-sparky widow Louisa Durrell make the radical decision to leave 1930s England to seek out a new destiny for her family before she and her children go completely off the rails. As Louisa relocates her reluctant brood to a dilapidated house in the Greek sun, the Durrells face a whole new set of challenges as they meet new friends, rivals, lovers--and animals.

Notes

Based on The Corfu Trilogy by Gerald Durrell.

Originally broadcast as individual episodes on ITV in Great Britain and on PBS as episodes of the series Masterpiece in 2016.
