The long-anticipated Rivals<\/em> hits our screens this month. It is based on Jilly Copper’s iconic romp Rivals <\/em>featuring the ever-favourite character Rupert Campbell-Black and stars actors such as David Tennant, Danny Dyer, Emily Atack and Poldark\u2019s Aidan Turner. <\/p>

Set in 1980s Britain, the racy drama takes place in the cutthroat world of independent television. At its heart is the fierce rivalry between two powerful men: the charismatic ex-Olympian and Tory MP Rupert Campbell-Black, and his nemesis, Lord ‘Tony’ Baddingham, the ambitious controller of Corinium Television.\u00a0<\/p>
