Spoilers for ‘Belgravia: The Next Chapter’

LONDON, ENGLAND: The first three episodes of ‘Belgravia: The Next Chapter’ are currently available for streaming on MGM+, offering a treat for fans of the original series, ‘Belgravia.’

Viewers are in for a captivating experience, particularly as the sibling rivalry takes center stage in Episode 3 of the latest series.

Frederick Trenchard and James Trenchard, who could have been close brothers turned best friends, find their relationship strained due to Frederick’s traumatic past. Flashbacks continue to haunt Frederick, hindering any potential resolution between the siblings.

In the most recent episode of ‘Belgravia: The Next Chapter,’ Frederick’s wife, Clara Dunn, attempts to facilitate a reconciliation between the brothers. However, their strained relationship is resistant to a quick resolution.

The question now arises: Could there be a chance for reconciliation in the upcoming episodes?

Clara Dunn interferes in the one-sided feud

The term "one-sided feud" aptly describes the ongoing conflict between Frederick Trenchard and his brother, Reverend James Trenchard. Frederick harbors a deep-seated grudge against James, while the latter remains oblivious to any animosity.

James portrayed as a sweet and gentle man through the eyes of the viewers, expresses genuine enthusiasm when receiving a letter from Clara Dunn, Frederick's wife.

However, the situation takes a turn for the worse during a premature encounter between Frederick and James which was not anticipated by viewers nor Clara. Frederick vehemently makes it clear that he wants no part in any relationship with James. The burning question now becomes: How long will this one-sided feud persist, and is there hope for resolution in future episodes?

Sooner or later, if Frederick really wants his marriage to work with Clara and put his anger away, he will have to come to terms with his past. The sooner he realizes that he can’t blame James for his father’s actions, the better it might be for all the characters. However, this is likely to happen close to the end of ‘Belgravia: The Next Chapter.’

Despite the current tensions, there remains hope that Clara’s earnest attempts to reconcile the estranged brothers will bear fruit. A heartfelt conversation between Frederick and James could potentially take place in subsequent episodes, providing an opportunity for the revelation of hidden secrets.

Such a confrontation might lead to Frederick finding solace and addressing some of the demons from his traumatic past.

In addition to the potential resolution between the Trenchard brothers, fans of 'Belgravia' may be in for a pleasant surprise, as there could be a chance for characters from the original series to make a comeback in 'Belgravia: The Next Chapter.'

‘Belgravia: The Next Chapter’ is now streaming on MGM+
