Trinity was a British drama series which ran for one season on ITV2 in 2009. Created by Robin French and Kieron Quirke, the show revolved around the lives of students and staff at a fictional university called Trinity College in Cambridge. The series starred veteran actor Charles Dance as Dr. Edmund Maltravers, the Master of Trinity College, a man with a reputation for being both brilliant and intimidating. He was joined by Claire Skinner as his wife, Charlotte, a former student of his who now teaches at the college. Together, they presided over a world of academic excellence, social hierarchy, and secret societies.

Antonia Bernath played the role of Charlotte's niece, Rosalind, who arrives at Trinity as a freshman and quickly gets drawn into the intrigue of the college. Christian Cooke played her love interest, Dorian Gaudain, a charming but troubled aristocrat with a dark past. Reggie Yates played Theo Mackenzie, a working-class student who defies the traditional social norms of the university and stands up to the elitist attitudes of the other students.

Isabella Calthorpe played Charlotte's daughter, Charlotte Jr., a student at another university who comes to visit her mother and becomes embroiled in a scandal involving a group of Trinity students. Arnab Chanda played Raj Patel, a brilliant but socially awkward student who becomes involved with one of the college's secret societies.

Michael Higgs played Martin Hawkins, a charismatic lecturer at the college who is involved in an illicit relationship with one of his students, played by Tom Hughes. David Oakes played Theo's older brother, Angus, a successful entrepreneur who sends shockwaves through the college when he shows up for a surprise visit.

Anthony Calf rounded out the cast as Lord Marchmain, an influential member of the college's governing council who clashes with Dr. Maltravers over the direction of the college's future.

Trinity combined elements of drama, romance, and mystery to create an addictive story that kept viewers on the edge of their seats. With its stunning setting and talented cast, the show captured the essence of university life while also exploring the darker side of academia.

Despite its strong reception among viewers, Trinity was cancelled after just one season due to low ratings. However, its legacy lives on as a cult classic among fans of British television.
