Book vs. Series Adaptation
I've been working SO hard lately that I've not looked at anything on imdb for ages. How encouraging to check JITC and see what I've always thought of as the absolute best series ever made has so many newer posts!
Thought I'd add one of my own:
A couple of mentions in previous posts of how the series inspired one to seek out the Paul Scott books. So for those who've enjoyed both versions I was wondering, what was most surprising or relevatory when you read the books?
For me, it was what happened to Daphne and Hari's daughter -- that she went to live with Lady Chatterjee when Lady Manners died, and was an intense student of raga singing. Lady Manners never tried to contact Hari Kumar about his daughter, thinking that his life was probably difficult enough and a child might make it more so.
Interesting.
Does anyone remember any other remarkable additions or discrepencies between the book and the series?
