I believe that sometime this year, or next, there is a remake with Ben Afflek being made. Even though after 20 years I am sure it has dated I would still be at the front of the queue, jumping up and down to get my copy! If you ever see it up for a rerun (which so far I never have) then I would definitely recommend it to be watched. Unfortunately the BBC is yet to cotton onto the fact that there are many people out there waiting for them to release the DVD. As you can tell from that comment I thought it was a great watch at the time. I got hold of the book on holiday, but as with many TV or Film adaptation their are always differences (Althought it was as close as i've seen an adaptation), and I am still wishing almost 20 years on that I had seen that last instalment.
