STORYLINE SYNOPSIS |
Based on the true story of a Tichborne's claim to a family fortune during
the late 19th century. Lord Tichborne, the ninth richest nobleman
in England, disappears in a shipwreck. Years later, his mother refuses to
believe him dead and sends family servant Andre Bogle to Australia, where
Tichborne is rumoured to have survived and settled. Bogle finds a claimant
and brings him back to England. There the family accepts him and his claim
to the family position and fortune. All seems to be well, until the death
of Lady Tichborne. A long court case follows as the claimants identity is
attacked and defended.
