Description
The story follows the Earl of Groan, Titus, and Steerpike as they all try to take over Gormenghast. Steerpike is trying to drive the Earl of Sepulchrave insane so he can take over the kingdom, while Titus is trying to stop him.
The kingdom of Gormenghast rejoices when its ruler, Lord
Sepulchrave (Ian Richardson), produces a son and heir: Titus, 77th
Earl of Groan. However, scheming kitchen boy Steerpike (Jonathan
Rhys Meyers) himself dreams of taking power, and sets about driving
Sepulchrave insane. He also seduces Titus' sister, Lady Fuchsia,
planning to seize the kingdom through her. It seems that Steerpike
cannot fail in his plans - only the timid Titus himself, young and
inexperienced, stands in his way...
