Colin Firth starred as Richard Herncastle, a young and impressionable Yorkshire lad who in 1913 signed on as assistant to his Uncle Nick (John Castle), a professional magician. During the next year or so, Richard toured with Nick throughout the provinces as part of an Empire Music Hall circuit performing troupe. His delightful and sometimes shocking experiences with his fellow vaudevillians (among them such long-forgotten acts as Dunffield's Dogs and the Musical Tiplows) came to an abrupt end when WWI was declared and Richard was called to the colors. Largely filmed at the old Burton Opera House, which actually did serve as a music hall in years gone by, Lost Empires was telecast by ITV in 1987. ~ Hal Erickson, RoviHide synopsis

Description:BRAND NEW. Eager to see more of the world, Richard Herncastle ...BRAND NEW. Eager to see more of the world, Richard Herncastle (Oscarr winner Colin Firth, The King's Speech) joins a traveling stage act run by his uncle Nick (John Castle, The Lion in Winter). His new colleagues are an assorted bunch of singers, dancers, acrobats, jugglers, and comedians, including one (Oscarr winner Laurence Olivier, Rebecca) whose best days are well behind him. Captivated by the group's female performers, Richard embarks upon a series of love affairs as the act tours the length and breadth of Britain. Nominated for six BAFTA awards and a supporting actor Emmyr for Olivier, this haunting saga based on J.B. Priestley's novel garnered acclaim on Masterpiece Theatre. Set on the eve of World War I, Lost Empires unfolds against the backdrop of the coming conflict in Europe and the growing sense that the world is about to change forever.
