    I think House of Guinness is worth a watch. To me more like Peaky Blinders meets Succession.

    im watching the twisted tale of Amanda Knox.
    always difficult to know how much is dramatised and embelished for the TV.
    but its scary how words can be twisted by the press and it spreads around the world ,
    all i remember from the story at the time is the phrase Foxy Knoxy.

    House of Guinness is next on my list to watch. James Norton is a great actor.

    Watching with interest Lambo as there is a connection to my wife's family. Her Grandfather was a butler at Mulgrave Castle near Sandsend/Whitby and Lord Normanby's wife there was a Guinness heiress, we've worked out that the old Lady Normanby's Grandfather was Edward Guinness the second brother in this TV series, enjoying it.

    I remember when The Guinness Trust owned Warter Estate, I found Lord Normanby's dog after it ran off and he gave me a pound!

    They did use to own Warter Estate, sold it to Malcolm Healey, Lady Normanby was called Grania Guinness, a Marquess and a Dowager Marchioness, which is high in the aristocracy. If you ever go past Sandsend up the hill the estate village to Mulgrave Castle is there called Lythe and my wife's grandparents lived in the Lodge house.
