Rueben's Ramblings

The PBS Masterpiece mini-series Indian Summers will debut on September 27 at 9 PM and will continue to air each week through November 22.

Julie Walters (Harry Potter franchise) plays the glamorous doyenne of an English social club in the twilight of British rule in India. The lavish series explores the collision of the English ruling class and local people agitating for Indian independence. The two sides alternately clash and merge in intricate games of power, politics and passion.

The cast includes Jemima West (The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones) and Henry Lloyd-Hughes (Madame Bovary and Anna Karenina) [among others].
