Jennifer Saunders (Absolutely Fabulous, French & Saunders) stars as Lady Hester Stanhope, a 19th-century adventurer and niece of Prime Minister Pitt the Younger. In her twenties, as London's top society hostess, Lady Hester held court at the PM's residence at 10 Downing Street. Penniless after Pitt's death, she opted to leave Britain permanently and spent the rest of her life touring the Middle east, astride a white stallion, captivating local Bedouin tribes who proclaimed her "Queen Of The East". Charmingly mysterious and trailing exotic lovers at every turn, Lady Hester set the century's standard for adventure and daring. An inspiring tale of a woman who became a legend in her own time - and by her own unique means!
