Whitby, 1986. At a masked soiree on the Royal Crescent, Dorian meets the elusive and enigmatic Tobias Matthews: a man he is instantly drawn to... but also a man with dangerous secrets. Has Dorian Gray finally met his match?

Based on Oscar Wilde's famous novel The Picture of Dorian Gray and positing a world in which Dorian Gray was all too real and knew Wilde, The Confessions of Dorian Gray stars Merlin's Mordred, Alexander Vlahos, as the titular immortal. This week's fourth episode, The Heart That Lives Alone, is written and directed by series mastermind Scott Handcock; the last of the five episodes will be released next Saturday, and a subscription option is also available.

The series continues to be enthusiastically received: here are, rather appropriately, a selection of tweets about the third episode, The Twittering of Sparrows:

Dawn C: 'Wow, third ep of Confessions of Dorian Gray was especially gripping. Ouch.'
