Mapp And Lucia

What the ecky peck was that all about? I don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't what I watched

Well said, mikey!

I thought it was okay.....wonderful on the eye but maybe aimed (however accidentally) at people who had read Benson? My Sis, who hasn't read the books, had trouble following it and I thought it was too mixed up with too many non original additions (eg the painting being copied from a photo). Slightly a waste of the material, the actors and the staging.

I have ordered a second-hand copy of "Mapp and Lucia" today from Ebay.
It was only £3.49, so worth a punt. It on my reading list for early 2015 !

Woofy....looks very good value for money ! But I am not a Kindle person. I have tried but can't get on with them.

Another wonderful episode !

Wonderful. I hope there's more to come. Not sure if I'm enjoying it more than the 1980's one. Prunella Scales was better, for me, as Mapp, and as Is said before, I loved Nigel Hawthorn as Georgie. But, they're all doing a magnificent job. Sorry it's ended.

The re-make isn't nearly as good as the original series. That was hilarious.
