Hugh Grant delivers in Amazon's brilliant 'A Very English Scandal'

A delicious three-part import with a first-class pedigree, "A Very English Scandal" tells the true story of British politician Jeremy Thorpe and his secret lover, played -- in a dream pairing -- by Hugh Grant and Ben Whishaw. Full of sly humor, poignant commentary and bizarre twists, it's almost like the perfect marriage of "The Crown" and a Coen brothers movie.
