There’s a digitally remastered version of the BBC Narnia various TV series coming out in November. Complete with new documentary. Instant preorder for me!

I am intrigued to know if anyone manages to make all of them into a series.

I hope it turns out good, but I'll always have the BBC version, even if it's incomplete re the books.

We will probably rewatch at least some of it this weekend. Martin's only seen the first serial. I'm especially keen for him to see The Silver Chair given who plays Puddleglum!

I hope he loves them.

Thanks! Me too :)

Damn, just seeing that cover image takes me back -- I was younger than the child actors when I watched it on video in the early nineties, and they were very much Big Kids to me then. Almost grown-ups, really.

Also, Samuel West played Caspian in the BBC Dawn Treader. A factoid known to me as of ten seconds ago, after thinking "who was that beautiful blond young man in golden armour?"

I definitely took note of young Samuel West back in 1989 on the original BBC broadcast :)
