This was originally broadcast on TV on December 30th 1985, and is from an old bought video tape I had which I found in a charity shop some years ago. Please note that because of this there may be some glitches or picture quality issues, but it is a TV adaptation that I don't think has been repeated since it's broadcast in Xmas 1985. This was an adaptation of the George Eliot novel, which was published in 1861.
