I did rather like the Campion mini series - Peter Davison made a good Campion. I really can't see Cliff Richards in that role :shudders:

Look on the bright side, at least you didn't have to sit through Sir Cliff in Heathcliff the Musical!!! Truly dire.
My nomination for ruining a great book is the movie of Circle of Friends. I love Maeve Binchy's work. She develops characters beautifully, and never seems to see the need end end her books with overly schmaltzy happy endings. At the end of Circle of Friends, there's no way that Benny should end up with Jack after everything he'd done to her, and yet the movie gave that ending. Couple that with Irish characters being played mostly by non Irish actors, and you end up with a movie so lame that it rarely even gets shown on TV!
