In reply to:
I saw a period drama/thriller on PBS some years back. I think it was set in England, with a man and woman that didn't know each other very well getting married, and a lot of awkwardness at first. It may have been the husband's 2nd marriage? At one point they are playing chess and the new husband startled his new bride by kissing her neck. Also there was a secret passage way between two bedrooms. Eventually they grow attached to each other and the wife becomes pregnant. Then the husband announces he is leaving the country (to go to India, in the British army perhaps??) much to the wife's dismay. While he is gone a female relative and an Indian woman come to stay with the wife, even though she wasn't comfortable having them there. The wife begins to suspect that she is being poisoned by them, or perhaps induce a miscarriage by poison and the husband comes back just in the nick of time at the end, if I remember correctly. It was a good film, with suspense, and the couple is really quite sweet in the beginning.
