Ray Winstone leads a gang of smugglers in our brand new family drama, Moonfleet. Written by Ashley Pharoah (Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes), this two-part adaptation of the much-loved John Meade Falkner novel is set in the small Dorset village of Moonfleet. In the story, young John Trenchard (Aneurin Barnard - The Truth About Emanuel, The White Queen) is desperate to join the local band of smugglers led by Elzevir Block (Winstone - The Departed, Hugo, Snow White And The Huntsman). Together they embark on an adventure full of action, friendship, and humour, and hunt for a fabled lost diamond. Their journey takes them from 18th Century Dorset, to the jewellery quarter of The Hague, and on to a gripping, final sea voyage. Newcomer Sophie Cookson joins the cast as John's first love, Grace, who is also the daughter of Moonfleet's anti-smuggling magistrate, Mohune, played by Ben Chaplin

In Moonfleet, John Trenchard dreams of the infamous Blackbeard's treasure - and the wealth and happiness it will bring him. John's search draws him in to the company of local smugglers, led by the charismatic Elzevir Block.
Now outlaws Elzevir and John deduce that the diamond is hidden in a well at Carisbrook castle prison and bribe the turn-key to let them in, posing as workmen. They find the diamond but Elzevir is shocked by John's ruthlessness when he kills the turn-key, who has threatened to expose them. After attempting to sell the jewel they are captured and sentenced to be sent to the East Indies as slaves. Their ship runs into a violent storm off the coast of Moonfleet and they swim ashore - but the curse of Blackbeard's diamond may still prevent them from resuming normal lives.
