Masterpiece Season 36 Episode 5 To the Ends of the Earth (3)
- November 5, 2006
A perilous early nineteenth-century ocean voyage from England to Australia is portrayed in all its excitement, chaos and random horror in a three-part adaptation based on the trilogy by Nobel Prize-winning author William Golding. Benedict Cumberbatch stars as Edmund Talbot, a young aristocrat who books passage aboard an aging, leaking, converted man-of-war, commanded with icy detachment by Captain Anderson.
