David Copperfield 1999 A two part tv series by the BBC with some of the best of UK film & theatre. Probably one of if not the best of Dickens' books. I've always been a great admirer of Dickens and could talk about him for hours but I won't. Only to say I've often had a suspicion that Copperfield's sad marriage to Dora in the book probably is something similar to Dickens' own failed marriage. Certainly his childhood is very similar to what happened to Dickens. I didn't think I'd find another film version to equal the 1974 tv series but this one does. To anyone interested in Dickens I can recommend the biography by Ackroyd.
