Oliver Twist (2007–2008)
3/10
Hit and miss
1 May 2017
So beloved are the Dickens novels that each new adaption of them sees fresh scrutiny. Everyone has an idea in their heads of how the characters should look/sound.

I thought this mini series was OK, without ever being great. There are good portrayals, and others where I felt too many liberties had been taken.

I liked Timothy Spall in his role of Fagin. He brought a fresh spin on it, that was engaging.

It was a hit and miss adaption for me though on the whole.
