What happens
Deceit is a British television mystery thriller, based on the 1993 novel of the same name by Clare Francis, that first broadcast on BBC One on 2 April 2000. Stuart Orme served as director, while Nicolas Brown served as producer. The miniseries, which stars Francesca Annis, Peter O'Brien and Christopher Fulford, follows housewife Ellen Richmond (Annis), whose husband mysteriously disappears after going out sailing on his yacht. The series was partly filmed in and around Ipswich. Critical reception to the series was positive. The series was remade as an American television movie with the same title in 2004. Notably, the series has never been released on VHS or DVD; however it is often repeated on True Entertainment as part of their "Best of British" season. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
