I loved Gerald Durell’s books - read them all years ago. So entertaining and knowledgeable.
Gave up watching after the first series. With the exception of young Gerald himself, the rest of his family come across as vain, selfish, louts.
The English abroad at their worst.
love it, light entertainment, lovely setting too, love all the characters aswell and the era, whats not to like, one day I will buy and read the books too as love reading.
These ITV series are not a television version of the books...it clearly says "based on"....so you wouldn't expect too many similarites to the books- well, I wouldn't.
