I'm not on top of the threads here, so I hope I'm not repeating someone else, but I just found out today that Masterpiece on PBS is showing four Dickens adaptions over the next few months. Mark your calendars:

Okay, now it's happened twice and suddenly a troop of people have arrived at my house so I can't work at fixing the links now. I'll be back.

>3 christiguc: I watched the BBC's Oliver Twist (2007) last night (a re-run on Australia's ABC channel). I think I preferred it to the Roman Polanski movie and enjoyed the performances by Edward Fox, Sarah Lancashire and Anna Massey. But it still felt very 'abridged'.
