Archived · TF1
In 1899, Céleste, a can-can dancer in a Montmartre cabaret, desperately tries to find the brother and sister from whom she was brutally separated as a child when their father was murdered before their eyes. To pay Léon, the inspector tasked with finding them, she has no choice but to become Paris's first stripper. Arsène, a young automobile engineer from the wealthy neighborhoods, is preparing to take over the reins of his father's factory. Engaged, he cannot bring himself to marry even though he secretly loves men. He then takes the risk of opposing his father and suddenly breaks off his engagement. Rose, a young laundress from the suburbs, deeply in love, is preparing to start a family with her fiancé. But her dream is short-lived when he actually leads her to a brothel where she is locked up. Rose manages to escape, but pursued by her pimps, she throws herself into the Marne and finds herself between life and death. None of our three heroes realizes that blood ties connect them.

A Woman of Substance
We meet the magnetic Emma Harte in 1911, as an impoverished, ambitious maid in Yorkshire, England, and follow her irresistible and dizzying climb to become the world's richest woman, gazing down on her sprawling empire from a luxury New York penthouse. The background to Emma Harte's rags-to-riches rise is the tale of women through the 20th century, as Emma defies the expectations of her society, fearlessly challenging the roles she's given, smashing glass ceilings, and never, ever deviating from her masterplan: Get to the top. Whatever it takes. A housemaid-turned-mogul, daughter, mother, lover, fighter and a 20th century feminist icon who refused to know her ‘place', Emma Harte returns to Channel 4 once again to delight and scandalise audiences.
