Episode one: "Steed in the Stable" After being arrested and charged with "foul atheism" and fornication, Casanova is sentenced to five years imprisonment at "
The Leads": the most notorious of
Venetian gaols. Brutalised by Lorenzo the gaoler and devoid of hope under the harsh prison regime, Casanova's mind wanders back to his past loves and adventures. He finds himself haunted by the memory of Christina, a simple country girl he gave to another rather than marry her himself.
Episode two: "One at a Time" This episode alternates mostly between Casanova's time in prison, where he receives a new cellmate in the form of Schalon, a corrupt
insurance broker, and a time after his release from prison, where he seduces three daughters at a house in
Grenoble.
Episode three: "Magic Moments" Casanova is irritated by his constantly complaining cell mate Schalon and remembers how he once pretended to be a magician casting a spell to seduce the virgin daughter of an old naive man.
Episode four: "Window, Window" This episode switches between Casanova's time in prison, and a time after his release where he sees Robert-François Damiens tortured, and tries to seduce Anne Roman-Coupier.
Episode five: "Fevers of Love" This episode consists mostly of scenes in prison, where Casanova is recovering from an infection, and scenes that take place after his release, in London, where he is reunited with Schalon.
Episode six: "Golden Apples" This episode flashes back and forward between Casanova finally managing to escape from his prison cell and him trying to write his memoirs in the
Castle of Duchcov near the end of his life as an old, dying man. ==Cast==
