Oliver. The BBC dramatisation

We have just watched last weeks dramatisation of Oliver Twist. It was a pleasure to watch. Sykes was fab and there have been tears here at the ending.......Can anyone tell me what else Tom Hardy (Sykes) has been in?

I thought it was fantastic but I have never read the book so was intrigued by the dark side of it and the deaths etc. Maybe one day I'll read it!

There are more I think

I thoroughly enjoyed this dramatisation. It was really well done with a brilliant cast.

loved it!:smt002

OMG i LOVED it , i have watched that flippin Musical of Oliver about 100 times & dont think i ever understood the Story (all that singing got in the way) but now i understand it all! a miracle!!!!

It had us all entranced from aged 7 to 40.......

Thanks for the list of his stuff. It was Cape Wrath I had seen him in. I have a new favourite, still not as good as Johnny though.

Haven't watched the current version, but the David Lean film takes some beating. The film didn't stick to the book exactly but the acting was superb.

I prefer the ending in the 1948 film to that f the book, but then I'm a sucker for a happy(ish)ending.

Can't believe that anyone didn't know the story-lol must be showing my age !-did several of the books at school & have read most of the books since as well,

The only one role that is nearly always cast wrong is the dog-in the book the dog is not given a breed, but is described in chapter 13
The dog has never been portrayed correctly not a SBT or a BT nor a Boxer(as in one film), but a white shaggy dog. Not a lot of people know this(or have forgotten if they have read the book) He was called Bull'e Eye though

The dog of course died at the end

he didnt die in this one, went off with dodger!!!!! Really nice looking Bull Terrier!!!!Though i suspect his "bulls eye" eye was make up!

Really enjoyed it! But my favourite actor was the dog!!!! He was gorgeous!!!!
