Details.
Wiki.
Beryl Markham: A Shadow on the Sun is a 1988 American-British TV mini-series starring Stefanie Powers and Jack Thompson. It was directed by Tony Richardson and was written by journalist James Fox and screenwriter Allan Scott, based on interviews Fox conducted when researching White Mischief. It was filmed on location in Limuru, Kenya. It traces Beryl's life from a 20-year-old equestrian to a lonely 82-year-old and focuses more on her personal life than her achievements as an aviator.
