在这部巴切斯特传剧情片中,主角是由唐纳德·普利森斯（《抓鬼节》）扮演的里维·塞普蒂默斯和奈杰尔·霍桑（《小妇人》）扮演的大助祭格兰特里，《巴切斯特传》讲述了一个英国教堂背后困境的故事。政治上的争吵和个人的不和就像烧滚的开水般爆发，使这个由著名作家安东尼·特罗洛普所写的故事极度紧张而惊险。
The Barchester Chronicles, a BBC miniseries, is adapted from two mid-19th century novels by Anthony Trollope. When a crusade against the Church of England's practice of self-enrichment misfires, scandal taints the cozy community of Barchester when their local church becomes the object of a scathing report about the use of church funds. Consequently, an honorable middle-aged clergyman (Donald Pleasence) is forced into moral crisis and a conflict with his son-in-law, a pompous archdeacon (Nigel Hawthorne) and his youngest daughter's beloved (David Gwillim). The arrival of a new bishop (Clive Swift), his domineering wife (Geraldine McEwan), and a devious chaplain (Alan Rickman) - who may be hiding secrets - add to the dramatic scheming and complex power struggles among a colorful cast of characters.
