By Lucy Catherine The origin story of Milady de Winter, one of the greatest villains of classic fiction. Created by Alexandre Dumas, Milady is one of D'Artagnan & Co's fiercest and most memorable adversaries in The Three Musketeers. Over the years, she has become an iconic femme fatale, not least because of the many portrayals by stars including Lana Turner, Faye Dunaway and Eva Green. In this original, two-part drama, we tell Milady's genesis story, charting her rise from spirited provincial teenager to deadly political operative in 17th century Paris and London. Milady . . . . .
