Canterbury Tales are Geoffrey Chaucer's tales updated to the present day. Producer Kate Barlett wanted to remain as faithful as possible to the spirit of the original tale. Each tale was scripted by a different writer and like the original tales they embody the timeless themes of love, lust, greed, power, anger and bigotry.
