I have the two-disc BBC 1997 Miniseries, "The History of "Tom Jones, a Foundling" now up for trade. It was W wanted when I posted it, but it's dropped into nobody-wants-me limbo since the original trader dropped out of sight. Surely it can't be unwanted.... Request it now and it's yours!
This miniseries is so much fun! The cast list alone is a hoot -- no end of fun in recognizing old BBC character-actor friends such as sweet-natured, gentlemanly Benjamin Whitrow, Brian Blessed (completely over the top!), Frances de la Tour (dry wit like twice-toasted week-old bread), unctious James D'Arcy playing the "bad guy".... and what miniseries would be complete without Ron Cook???
The "Tom" character is truly enjoyable to know: he's catnip to females, yes, but is also pleasing, sweet-tempered, honorable guy who's madly in love with his childhood friend, Sophia, though thick and thin and then some. Not a bad set of traits to have, opposite Sophia herself, fiery Samantha Morton playing the short-tempered yet ladylike Daddy's girl who sticks by her Tom. And Kathy Burke, her snarky-devoted lady's maid! Wonderful stuff.
