An absolutely awful adaptation. We lasted around 30 minutes of episode one but the thought of four two hour episodes of this drivel had us reaching for the TV remote. Hadyn Gwynne, Caroline Catz and Anthony Head are fine actors each with an impressive back catalogue to be proud of but they are completely wasted in this awful production. The special effects are good but characterisations are stereotypical, in particular the Gypsy family. The superb locations are also wasted and can do nothing to save what is a poor poor story. In short if you are thinking of watching this production don't. It would be several hours of your life you won't get back!
