    War and Peace

    War and Peace

    War and Peace is a television dramatization of the Leo Tolstoy novel of War and Peace. This 20 episode series began on 28 September 1972.

    The BBC dramatisation of Tolstoy’s epic story of love and loss set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars. Anthony Hopkins heads the cast as the soul-searching Pierre Bezukhov, Morag Hood is the impulsive and beautiful Natasha Rostova, Alan Dobie is the dour, heroic Andrei Bolkonsky and David Swift is Napoleon, whose decision to invade Russia in 1812 has far-reaching consequences for Pierre and the Rostov and Bolkonsky families.

    The twenty-part serial was produced by David Conroy. His aim was to transfer the characters and plot from Tolstoy’s magnum opus to television drama to run for 15 hours. Scripted by Jack Pulman and directed by John Davies, Conroy’s War and Peace had battle sequences which were filmed in Yugoslavia. The production designer Don Homfray won a BAFTA for his work on the series.

    This dramatization differs from previous ones in that it preserves many of Tolstoy’s “minor” characters — notably Platon Karataev, played by Harry Locke.

    Cribb

    Cribb is a television police drama, which debuted in 1979 as a 90-minute TV film from Granada Television in the United Kingdom. Later, thirteen 50-minute episodes were produced, which ran from 1980-81.

    Adapted from Peter Lovesey’s Sergeant Cribb novels and set in Victorian London around the time of the Jack the Ripper murders in 1888, Alan Dobie starred as the tough Detective Sergeant who worked for the newly formed Criminal Investigation Department, determined to remove crime from the streets of London using the latest detection methods.

    The series portrayed life in Victorian England, and the programmes included many real historical events such as the publication of Jerome K. Jerome’s Three Men in a Boat and the sale of London Zoo’s famous elephant, Jumbo, to Barnum and Bailey’s Circus. The stories included issues such as bare-knuckle prize fighting, spiritualism and Irish terrorism. Assisting Cribb was Detective Constable Thackery, played by William Simons.

    The 1979 pilot episode was entitled Waxwork and featured Carol Royle and Susie Blake and was produced and directed by June Wyndham-Davies.
