The Forsyte Saga (1967)

Michael and Fleur drift further apart as last ditch efforts to settle the libel case fail, and Ferrar vs. Mont is heard in court. The episode is dominated by the bruising cross-examination of Marjorie by Fleur’s attorney, who reveals the plaintiff’s true views on morality, views secretly shared by the Monts. A settlement is reached, but at great cost: Fleur and Michael are ostracized, while Marjorie becomes the victimized belle of the ball.
