Loved it, Top Class, Just Brilliant.
I watched this series of 4 episodes (each featuring a story from Richmal Crompton's Just William books) and thought it was Brilliant.
I read the books avidly when I was at school (many years ago) and this is a very true adaptation of the stories, including William's long suffering parents, and of course Violet Elizabeth Bott (Isabella Blake Thomas who is brilliant). William is played by David Roche and gives a perfect portrayal of the irrepressible scruffy schoolboy battling against older sister and brother and teachers and gamekeepers along with the help from the Outlaws, making sure they always won. Robert Foster a Newcomer to our screens, played Henry
excellently, a perfect portrayal of the brain one trying to keep William out of trouble but yet I do remember Henry being to older one in the books.
In real life in 2010 he would be classed as an antisocial adolescent, charged with blackmail, trespassing, stealing, lying, etc, and given an ASBO. But the programs are set...
Just William Rev
If you are a middle school or preteen student you will probebly like Just William. It's slanted probably for middle ages boys. Not for adult unless you like kid movies. RHR
