Tells the untold story of one of Britain's greatest heroines, in her own words

Written and directed by multiple award-winning director Norman Stone and starring Laura Fraser, this powerful BBC drama brings to life Florence NIghtingale's spiritual and emotional breakdown after returning home from the horrors of the Crimean War.

Returning from her hospital at Scutari Florence fought tirelessly for an investigation into the war only to discover that her own shortcomings had led to the deaths of many of those she and her fellow nurses cared for. The impact on her was devastating and would break her in mind and spirit.

Sharp, fresh and controversial, Florence Nightingale features a distinguished supporting cast including Roy Hudd, Michael Pennington, Barbara Marten, Andrew Harrison, Ian Bartholomew and Catherine Tyldesley
