Sydney Carton (James Wilby) has fallen in love with Lucie (Serena Gordon), but she marries aristocrat Charles Damay (Xavier Deluc) and does not know of Sydney's love for her. Later, the French Revolution has exploded, and Charles has been captured and sentenced to the guillotine. Unselfishly, Sydney comes up with a plot to take Charles's place at the guillotine so that Charles can return to Lucie. This Masterpiece Theater presentation of Dickens' story of ideals during the French Revolution is definitely worth watching. It is a lavish production that originally was shown in episodes in 1989 and 1990.
