Based on naturalist Gerald Durrell's trilogy of novels, The Durrells in Corfu sees impoverished widow Louisa Durrell (Keeley Hawes, MI-5) make the radical decision to leave 1930s England to seek out a new destiny for her family. As she relocates her brood to a house in the Greek sun, the Durrells face a whole new set of challenges as they meet new friends, rivals, lovers-and animals.
