I know they will bring the boardroom battles and love triangles of my characters to life – particularly those of my devastatingly handsome hero.Which is all very well and good, but a comment which completely ignores the context of Cooper’s opus, within which women do what they want with their own bodies and hang the consequences.

In addition to Treadwell-Collins and Wade, the series writers room also includes Sophie Goodhart ( The Baby, Sex Education), Marek Horn, Mimi Hare & Clare Naylor ( The Accidental Husband), Dare Aiyegbayo ( The Dumping Ground, EastEnders), Kefi Chadwick ( Looted, Avoidance), Tray Agyeman, and Sorcha Kurien Walsh ( The Pink Pill). Eliza Mellor ( The Midwich Cuckoos, Behind Her Eyes, Poldark) serves as Series Producer. The series lead director is BAFTA-nominated Elliot Hegarty ( Ted Lasso, Cheaters, Trying), who also serves as executive producer on episodes 1-3. The show will premiere on Disney+ in EMEA and Asia Pacific and on Star+ in Latin America. Treadwell-Collins has written the series with Olivier Award-winner Laura Wade ( The Riot Club). The series is executive produced by Dominic Treadwell-Collins ( A Very English Scandal, Holding, EastEnders) and Alexander Lamb ( The Bay, We Hunt Together, Ackley Bridge). Rivals is part of Cooper’s bestselling Rutshire Chronicles, a beloved series of novels set amongst the brazen power-grabbing affluent elite of 1980s England. We can’t wait to welcome Rupert Campbell-Black and the residents of Rutshire to the platform,” said Lee Mason, Director of Scripted Content, EMEA, Disney+. We were thrilled when Dominic brought us these iconic books, and we leapt at the chance to bring them to life. “The combination of Jilly Cooper and Disney+ is delightfully unexpected.
