As exec producer Delyth Scudamore explains, the pair were “different sides of the same coin. They both loved the outdoors, adventure — and bonking in the grounds of [Ian’s family castle] Inveraray!”
Their passion, however, gave way to pique, and they both had extramarital affairs and treated the other cruelly: She forged a letter from his ex-wife that intimated he wasn’t the father of his sons; he had her banned from Inveraray, the home she renovated with her family money.
Their outrageous war played out in the press, but it was Margaret who was painted as the villain for being unapologetic about her sexuality (nude photos emerged at the divorce trial) and insisting she be treated as an equal to her husband. “She was a woman born in the wrong time,” Scudamore says, adding, “Her story demanded to be told.”
