Her mother cannot adapt to this new life and her brother becomes seriously ill, so both return to England. Beryl remains with her father, enjoying learning about Africa and the mores of the local tribe. The girl grows up playing polo and going to the parties of wealthy friends, but when drought forces her father to sell their property, she makes a marriage of convenience with Jock Purves (Brian Cox), whose brutality soon causes her to leave him. Much like her father, she becomes a horse trainer, then meets her next husband, the wealthy Mansfield Markham (James Fox), after her horse wins a race. She goes on to have a number of affairs, one with Denys Finch Hatton (Trevor Eve), which ignites an interest in learning to fly.
