Rivals is a new eight-part series that was recently introduced to Disney+, but before you prepare for another TV binge, read the bestselling novel it was inspired by. In 1988, Dame Jilly Cooper released Rivals, a novel from the Rutshire Chronicles. This story follows a fictional independent commercial television station, Corinium, as two opposing powers fight for control. The novel paints a picture of the high-stakes and chaos of the '80s TV industry, while feeding audiences a mix of romance and satire. Although the small screen adaption is certainly worth a watch, to truly enjoy the story, pick up a copy of Cooper's original story first.
