Textile heiress Margaret Campbell's infamous second marriage to the Duke of Argyll will be at the heart of 'A Very British Scandal.' See the first images of Claire Foy in character here.

When the beautiful textile heiress Margaret Campbell married her first husband, American stockbroker and golfer Charles Sweeny, at the Brompton Oratory in 1933, the crowds that assembled to see her Norman Hartnell gown were so vast that traffic in southwest London came to a standstill for nearly three hours.

Paul Bettany will appear as the Duke of Argyll, who used his wife’s inheritance to restore his family home of Inveraray Castle.It’s Margaret’s infamous second marriage to the Duke of Argyll, however, that will be at the heart of, airing on BBC One in the U.K. and Amazon Prime Video in the U.S. in 2022.

While Margaret refused to identify the other figure in the portraits, the media speculated that “the headless man” may have been everyone from Hollywood actor Douglas Fairbanks Jr. to Winston Churchill’s son-in-law, Minister of Defence Duncan Sandys. Her husband, meanwhile, declared in court that she had committed adultery with no fewer than 88 men, leading the presiding judge, Lord Wheatley, to label her a “completely promiscuous woman” in a 40,000-word judgement.

Julia Davis will also star as Maureen, Marchioness of Dufferin and Ava, a member of the Guinness family.Happily, the BBC drama will offer a more enlightened take on her story, believed by many to be the first true case of revenge porn. Not only were Margaret’s private Polaroids widely shared despite her objections, her husband also released her letters and diaries, which he stole with the help of a locksmith.
