We have two new sets of DVDs.
Nicholas Nickleby I gave to Adrienne for Christmas.
It is the early 1980s nine hour version that was produced by the RSC at the Aldwych Theatre in London. It was then filmed at the Old Vic for the opening of Channel 4, before being taken to Broadway.
It is a most wonderful production with 39 actors playing the 150 roles. I can thoroughly recommend it to everyone.
The first twenty episodes of the comedy Cheers. I am sure most of you will know of this beautifully written and performed series. It was at it’s very best until the untimely death of Nicholas Colasanto who played Coach. These were also shown by Channel 4 when it started. Many hours of pure genius.
I love NORM……………..Not being a frequent bar drinker, I once primed a barman who got the customers to call out CHRIS when I entered with Adrienne. She nearly went into hysterics.
