Brideshead Revisited (BBC TV Series 1981)

Brideshead Revisited (BBC TV Series 1981) Cast: Jeremy Irons, Anthony Andrews, Diana Quick Original novel: Evelyn Waugh Jeremy Irons (Charles) and Anthony Adams (Sebastian Flyte) story of friendship, eccentricity, discoveries, enforced rules, drunken stupor, flamboyance and ways of the Marchmains…This one too was a TV series from BBC and the pace of the story telling really transports you right into the midst of the characters…Elaborate and picking pace gradually, it is a definite must for English classic lovers. Jeremy Irons gives a stellar performance, and the character appears so natural for Jeremy. Even now when I think of Brideshead Revisited, I can accurately picture Jeremy as a student at Oxford and his escapades with Sebastian Flyte.
