This has been redone by PBS and is quite a good effort. After the episodes were shown two years ago they were rerun again last Fall to prepare us for the second set of episodes, which were broadcast in February. The first set of the remake is now out on DVD with the second set yet to come.

I thought this as good as the first, which I borrowed on VHS from the library just after I saw the remake. The only complaint I have is that this Irenee does not come close to Nyree Dawn Porter's magnificent performance, 60's eye makeup and all.
