The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (STV) - Title Sequence

[Loverboy19691]

This brought back memories, i used to watch this every sunday evening getting ready for a bath.

This seems good. But, I just don't see this Miss Brodie being a hit with the men, like Maggie Smith's Miss Brodie was. Maggie was gorgeous!!

Geraldine McEwan's portrayal of Miss Jean Brodie was Muriel Spark's personal fav interpretation :)

Miss Brodie certainly got about a bit. Newcastle, Dublin plus some places I can't identify.

@Cool2BCeltic The first three shots of a city are of Newcastle (bridge, monument, castle). The final shot I don't know...

Do you happen to have the rest of the series? I've been trying to find it for ages!

Thanks -- there are a fair number of people who would love to see more!

Thanks so much for posting this - I've had that tune in my head for over 30 years - nice to hear it again. (Actually what's in my head is the bit starting at 29 seconds in - and in this clip it's cut off at 36 seconds, so there must be a longer version somewhere: maybe the _end_ titles?)

@G6JPG You are right, the end titles were as you remember, there was an extended version of the opening titles. Someone had the end titles on youtube a few years back, but big brother again was watching and had them removed- not sure how long this one will last before the powers that be step in...

@Kitchiegeorgedotcom: the person who put up this one very kindly also put up the end credits:

If you do a search for the tv series on HMV.com you will see that there is an intention to have this production commercially available on DVD, when I do not know.

@dillonsbestfriend - thanks, I'll keep an eye out for it.
