The series is produced for Amazon Studios by Blueprint Pictures. Jeremy Brock is the screenwriter and Julian Jarrold the director. Emily Maitlis is executive producer on the series alongside Karen Thrussell, Graham Broadbent, Pete Czernin, Diarmuid McKeown, Brock and Jarrold.
The series is a spiritual sequel to A Very English Scandal (2018), about the Thorpe affair, and A Very British Scandal (2021), about the Argyll divorce, both of which were also produced for Amazon by Blueprint.
