Anyone know anything about this?


Not much info available on this? Is it a TV mini-series?

reply

I just saw in the latest Radio Times that this is a 90 minute special which will air on BBC 1 at 18:00 on 27 December.

It was good. I videod it and watched it just now, because I couldn't watch it at the time, and I enjoyed it. Looks like the BBC put a lot of effort into it, as usual.

worked very well, much of the script was according to the book. i was a bit disappointed not to see the snakes in the bath and the brother in the towel which is at the end of the book, but you can't have everything ;) i loved it

Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps...She could sing in tune today Doris?

This has been announced for Masterpiece Theater in March.

bad bad server. no donut for you

Masterpiece Theater is what PBS (the US Public Broadcasting System) uses to show BBC shows. _Upstairs, Downstairs_ and _I, Claudius_ were shown on Masterpiece Theater, for example.

I just checked the PBS website, and _My Family and Other Animals_ is sceduled to air April 9th.

I have loved the book (and its sequels, _Birds, Beasts and Relatives_ and _Fillets of Plaice_) for 35 years...I hope the film can live up to it.

PBS really did show this movie on 4/9 in the States--at least in Wisconsin. I was rather amused with the performance.

reply

I just watched it. I thought it was pretty entertaining. I certainly didn't expect it to be funny, but it was!

reply

I saw a movie a few nights ago and I thought this mught be it, but i wasn't sure.

Can someone give me a summary of it?

reply

You can order the DVD from Amazon. That is, if your DVD player will accept the format that you buy it in.

The (USA) Amazon DVD link is on this board just below this thread. You can also try the UK/European Amazon sites.

It's being shown on Israel, it was on 10 minutes ago, my second viewing and it still makes me laugh. Great performances and a Cinema worthy movie!

reply

i borrowed the book from a library and i started reading it but i didnt like it =[

reply

how come? its a great book. if you can't be bothered with his animal exploits, at least you should find the descriptions of his family quite amusing
