Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The BBC adaptation of Anne Bronte's moral tale The Tenant of Wildfell Hall will be a delight to those who revel in classics brought to the screen. Tara Fitzgerald stars as Helen Graham, a secretive woman who seeks independence for herself and her son from her cruel husband, Arthur Huntingdon. Huntingdon, a rake taken with women and drink, is played to perfection by Rupert Graves, believable as both the young lover who seduces Helen and as the depraved and brutish man he becomes. Toby Stephens is Gilbert Markham, the suspicious yet adoring yeoman farmer smitten with the supposed widow. The scenery and costumes of this period piece are lush, although the use of flashback as a narrative device is at times jarring. This tale is darker than the Jane Austen adaptations that BBC audiences are used to, yet the two-part film has an ending satisfying enough for even the most cynical of romantics. --Jenny Brown

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Dark tale Superbly produced
As a fan of British period films - I expected this Anne Bronte film to be whimsical like many BBC productions - but was pleasantly surprised at the haunting darkness of the story.

The lead female, played by Tara Fitzgerald, is almost repulsive in her abrasive and aloof character at first... but then as you discover her story, you are heartened by her strength and courage.
Rupert Graves is convincingly detestable in his role as the lover, turned abusive and monstrous husband. ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A bit dark for me
Although I've never considered the book particularly dark,at times situations are bleak while character is being built and challenges overcome. Here in the movie version of the tale,however,there seems to be a focus on all the dark challenges while minoring on the beautiful character outcomes that grow from making honorable choices. Too bad. The actors and sets are great.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great story, not quite true to the book.
I Read this Bronte novel 1st and then found the movie. Actually, I found Toby Stephens and knew I had to have to movie! He is an excellent Gilbert! And, it's one of his movies easily available in the states with a happy ending. (Hope I didn't give it away, but that only means he's still alive at the end!)

There are a few scenes in the movie version that are out of order and change the meaning from the book. I understand that to make a good movie, some creative license must be allowed. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 5 stars for....
getting my wife out of my hair by watching this. From a guy's perspective, this stuff is as boring as watching grass grow... in fact, I'd rather sit and watch grass grow than watch this! Only good to send men to sleep in a hurry :)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - One of my favorites
I enjoyed this BBC series (The Tenant of Wildfell Hall). I wanted to see more of Toby Stephens' work after being blown away by his performance as Edward Rochester in the BBC's 2006 version of "Jane Eyre". I checked out the video cassette from my public library several times before the DVD became available earlier this year.

Since seeing the series I've read the book by Anne Bronte several times. The deviations from the book don't bother me that much - I feel the series is true to the spirit ... Read More

The on-board menus, entertainment and lecture program will be geared to British tastes and the currency will be sterling. Queen Victoria will fly the red ensign; she will have the name of her home port, Southampton, on her stern, and she will have a British Captain and Officers.   In design terms the cruise Cunard Queen Victoria will have an undeniably British feel with two British design teams being responsible for the interior of the Cunard Queen Victoria.

Queen Victoria is being built at Italy’s Fincantieri shipyard in Marghera, near Venice, with her keel laid on July 12, 2003. One of the most technically advanced shipbuilders in the world, Fincantieri has built more than 7,000 vessels, including many for Cunard’s parent Carnival Corporation. Originally ordered as the fifth in a series of five 'Vista' class ships for sister company Holland America, the contact was signed over to Cunard before the keel was laid and Holland America then ordered a further ship for delivery  in 2006.   Enjoy a Cruise on Queen Victoria.  The lead ship in the series, Zuiderdam, entered service in December 2002.

No cruise schedules have yet been announced. Her float out is scheduled for May 2007, prior to her delivery in March 2008.She is scheduled to enter service in April 2008.
