Mystery, debauchery, murder, and financial ruin are all part of a night's stay at The Grand, the eponymous hotel of this lavish miniseries. Set during the 1920s in Manchester, England, the eight-part series details the tumultuous fortunes of the hotel's various denizens with an eye wide open towards high drama, sexual politics, suspense, and some very British humor. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, All Movie Guide
