10/10
Brilliant and totally absorbing adaptation of the novel.
26 August 2000
Having first seen this memorable serial in 1980, I was intrigued to have the opportunity to watch it again recently on UK Drama channel, 20 years on. I was not disappointed. It had truly withstood the test of time and was just as compelling as I remembered - why oh why has it never been repeated on BBC?

Sensitive dramatisation and inspired acting combined to make it a very reluctant farewell at the end of part 13. Complements to John Duttine, albeit belatedly, not only for his superb portrayal of PJ, but also for the authenticity and consistency of his Welsh accent. This "revisit" has made my year!
