You're very welcome! Glad you enjoyed the clips. This is one of my favourite films, it's on YT. Great cast, marvellous performances (Glenda Jackson stole the show), it's also very moving and perfectly done, although many prefer the film with Laurence Olivier. Both films are splendid.

The entire series has been blocked... only clips are allowed... :(

Wish there was a DVD with good subtitles. The auto subtitles are not so good... :(

You're very welcome! These clips are from an ep. of The Edwardians - a very interesting series (1972). Michael Jayston said he hated cars and never wished to learn how to drive. Robert Powell was great as the eccentric aristocrat too. 🥰

@ _Now that’s a Fun tidbit_ 😊

Thank you so much for your beautiful heartfelt words! 🥰 He has brought so much joy to so many people, God bless him. He will always be so loved. 💔 💗💞Wish I could find his lost programmes. 🥲🥲🥲This is just a selection of my favourites, I would have included much more in the video but it would have been too long. :)

🥰😀🥰

You're most welcome. The entire miniseries is available too, on another channel.

Thank you so much! The entire Jane Eyre 1956 mini series is uploaded now, on Bronte Fan channel. I'll try to find out if Precious Bane still exists or was lost.

@@mrrochesterfan Oh thank-you! I just subscribed to the Bronte Fan Channel and I can't wait to watch the whole thing! 💘 I love all the performances so far. It's the first time I've ever seen Daphne Slater beyond her photo. And I know the Precious Bane would be just incredible if this Jane Eyre is any sign! I can't imagine how they even told the story in the 1950's, to be honest. (It's quite radical and they would need to be creative!) Daphne and the rest of the cast must be amazing in it. BBC audiences were so lucky! Fingers-crossed it is out there somewhere 💫✨

@@AmyWhoLovesFlowers I just checked and unfortunately all 6 eps. of Precious Bane were wiped or lost, they can't be found. But there is ongoing research to find tapes that have been in the possession of deceased private collectors, so there's hope this series would be found one day (as well as the 2 missing episodes of Jane Eyre 1963).

@@mrrochesterfan Oh dear, I was afraid of that. I do hope it's found one day!! I can't imagine how hard it is tracking these things down. (I wonder if the director's family could have a copy.) THANK YOU so much for looking into it for me! I don't know if there is anything I can do, but I do have my fingers-crossed for luck that it and other treasures will be found. Did you know that a crucial piece of Jim Henson's A Christmas Carol was lost by Disney? The scene is the turning point of Ebenezer Scrooge's character and it's musical theme echoes through the whole film! After it's release, Disney apparently edited the scene out. And then lost it on the cutting room floor. 🫢 It drives me crazy that Disney sells it today with the critical scene "missing" and not restored in any form. Not only is A Christmas Carol a beloved story, but this was the film that Mr. Henson basically died for, as I recall. It was indefensible in the first place to cut it. It boggles my mind how precious performances and interpretations ~ even treasured movies and 6 part creations of Jane Eyre, Precious Bane could be lost! Oh, I do do hope both of our lists of lost treasures are found. And I wish there was something I could do about it! I remember a story of lost film being discovered in a Hollywood flea market. So we should never give up hope! 🎬🎞️✨ Thank you so much for your important archiving efforts, RochesterFan ~ bringing what you love to us ~ because sharing them keeps the love for these artistic works alive and strong! I never even knew of Michael Jayston until I saw his Mr. Rochester! Thank-you so much for what you do! You are making a difference! 💖

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! I'm so sorry about Precious Bane too but there's always hope the series surfaces one day, from a private collection, fingers crossed! It's unbelievably hard to find out anything about lost programmes (I've tried to find Michael Jayston's lost ones and the 2 missing eps. of Jane Eyre 1963), wrote to so many people, they either know nothing or they don't reply. It's tragic that many tapes were wiped in the 70's, to be re-used. Even programmes that weren't wiped, like The David Frost Show (the interview with Michael Jayston, Tom Baker) are impossible to find because the owners simply prefer to keep them locked. I didn't know about A Christmas Carol, they should have kept a copy of the original one, absolutely, that's unforgivable. Best wishes and many thanks!

You're very welcome! The entire mini series is uploaded now, on Bronte Fan channel. :)

@@mrrochesterfan Found It😊Thanks…

The musical score is brilliant indeed. The film is available to watch, but still blocked on YT. And it's on DVD, of course.

Thank you so much! I tried everything, wrote to the libraries and the archives, no one knows anything about it. But I still think the 2 missing eps. could be in someone's private collection. On the other hand, I might be able to find more eps. of Jane Eyre 1956... not sure yet. If I do I'll upload to the other channel (Bronte Fan) :) Fingers crossed!

You're very welcome! 🤗

The Tsar and his family were canonised by the Russian Church in 2000... The Tsar wasn't a bloody tyrant, just a weak leader. There is a scene with Ian Holm (playing Yakovlev, a Bolshevik), he calls him "bloody Nicholas" but the truth is that Bloody Sunday wasn't ordered by the Tsar (he wasn't even in town) and the Bolsheviks caused dozens of millions of deaths themselves, before and after the revolution. No matter what the Tsar would or wouldn't have done, they had no chance from the start... No one from the royal family was left alive (they could have claimed the throne afterwards), not even the witnesses.

@@mrrochesterfan As Communism began 'testing the waters' here in America from the 40s to the 70s, you would think they would have at least supplemented my World History courses in High School to at least touch on Russian History and political Rulers back then, but NO. I knew absolutely nothing concerning Nicolas II, but to know that everyone, anyone that might have been able to ascend to the throne through his Family line was assassinated, Wow that gave me pause‼️😳 They succeeded in ending his Family Line. 🇷🇺Time for me to do a little 'light' reading 📚 ☺️

If a love interest is not mentioned here then it is not the full story, there definitely is love interest in the original book. That’s the whole point of him embarking on a mission to kill hitler.

Yes, this was an anniversary edition, there was just this short clip about TTSS.

@@mrrochesterfan Thanks so much for posting it, I've always wanted to see Patrick Stewart talking about being Karla!

@@CDMVIDZ You're very welcome! He was a great Karla. 🥰

Ok that's as clear as mud

Thank you so much for the lovely coomment. I so much wish the 2 missing eps show up somewhere. Tried everything, wrote to libraries, archives but no one could help. On the other hand my instinct tells me someone might have them, a private collector perhaps. There are also closed archives like the Royal one, they might have the entire series, hopefully...

@@mrrochesterfan It's possible that a certain private collector managed to save the missing episodes whether he got the tapes or recorded by himself / herself. Perhaps they may be hidden in a certain area that was purchased by BBC before. At least we know what the 1963 version of "Jane Eyre" looked like and it was fortunately recorded compare to many British period dramas released in that era where they're either lost or destroyed. That version seemed to have historical significance in "Jane Eyre" adaptations as it started the trend of releasing JE adaptation on BBC every ten years with 1973 and 1983 versions. Time will tell.

Absolutely, he has a very special intensity in his eyes. 🥰

Sinead Cusack and Prunella Gee played Quiller's girlfriends in the series (13 episodes). The series is absolutely cool and very British.

Yes, it's available to watch, but not on YT. 🥰

Wow, how lovely, he was the most adorable gentleman. Love him so much. 🥰

So sad to hear this, I had so much hope to see this performance one day... I'll make a video of Michael Jayston's singing, it is interesting that there are 2 versions of Edelweiss with him.

Wow! Many thanks for your lovely feedback! Someone said it was filmed... I don't know what to think any more. There are many scenes with Petula Clark singing, but none with Michael Jayston...

How wonderful! I would so much love to see it, but no one knows if it was filmed... probably it was, as it was a great success.

Thank you so much, I feel the same. I'll make another video for his birthday, if I can... I'm so sad that this was his last birthday.

​@mrrochesterfan yes so sad it was his last birthday. Look forward to more of your videos.

Yes, but all the actresses playing Jane were actually pretty or beautiful... 🥰

@@mrrochesterfan I did not think Zelah Clarke or Ruth Wilson looked beautiful in their adaptations. They were made up to look plain. This Jane was beautiful with minimal makeup.
