[layanahs]

Thanks so much for uploading this series. I really enjoyed it.

[gaiagale]

thank-you for sharing this 1999 BBC series here ...I know that you have shared more than just these videos ...you have shared a wee part of your cultural tradition ...your time as well as your energy so thanks bundled with respect

[ColdHeartedSnivy]

Never watched the movie or read the book before but I had a feeling they were going to play cards again.

[pgill15]

I'd rather they stay single than she getting married to someone else, and he someone else. cause then there's always this chance that they just might get together later on.

[TheGingerella]

turkish subtitlesss PLEASEE!!!!

[cmsahe]

II'm looking forward to read that adaptation that Wikipedia mentions: "Pip and the Zombies" ;D

[cmsahe]

thanks for uploading! BTW  I finished reading the novel today too!

[18Jana2Marie1899]

I watched first and last part and I am happy now :D

[SyBabyProductions]

When I read how Drummle was supposedly killed by his horse, I thought: "Ah, justice!"

[hasawyah]

thank you, amazing movie!

[mo28mabini]

Thanks for uploading. no matter what version or ending, this will forever be - a great story.

[Nouranmosaad97]

@grahamcrackerxx I dont like the original ending... Like...C'mon!! Its expected that they unite after all those sufferings... But they didnt! I wanted them to unite after all.. thats why I like the re-edited ending.. xD

[TomKennyIsLovely]

Beautiful! The book was even better though, if you can imagine that!

[galinkame]

I waisted so much time watching this movie! It still makes no sense to me

[xXRawrxImxThexDinoXx]

Do we have to be deprived of our company...WOw beautttttttiful last scene...made me want to cry. Such a well done ovie as well as an amazing book.

[southwestguy223]

Awww, I wanted to see Joe and Biddy's Child.

Why is the music so scary?

[poolopis01]

The actress portraying Estella really delivers emotionally in this scene. The look on her face as she realizes the accumulation of her adamantly ignored pain is crushing and it makes her look so fragile.

[TheMimiblue1]

I feel bad for pip because he doesnt really have a happy anding. The story is titled Great Expectations and yet all his expectations dont turn out the way he wanted them to. But im also glad he didnt get with Estella because that kind of ending is to common, whic is why like the ending.

[xXRawrxImxThexDinoXx]

@TheMimiblue1 Its called Great Expectations because Pip has great expectations but they never occur. if they did then it wouldnt be named that so sarcastically.

[parisgala]

amazing story!! and thank god pip didnt marry biddy, i mean there's nothing wrong with her, but the ending with estella is much more suitable and it promises hope that the two may pursue what glimmer of a romantic relationship that they presently share.

[irishequalsme]

thank you so much for uploading this!! i read the book but could never find this movie!! i am eternally greatful!

[gaiagale]

this last day ...my evening into the wee hours of the morning was filled with Great Expectations 1,2 & 3 : ) ...the story line was a challenge for me to understand still I had my own great expectation in that if I watched with attention and total engagement to the end I would understand ...I did ...on all accounts

I will sleep well savouring small sweet success

thank-you for sharing the entire story

[NewMilleniumFilm]

I thought that the book ended with them walking hand and hand out of a graveyard or something...is that true, or did I just dream it up? o_O

[xXRawrxImxThexDinoXx]

@NewMilleniumFilm Dreamed it up...tho it might be from another movie or one of the shows...idk :P

[faeryquene]

@NewMilleniumFilm That is how I recall the ending (I've not read the book in years). There seemed the hope at least that they might eventually get together.

[XxIYaoiIxX]

I want Pip to marry with Estella.....Grrr....I was so disappinted at the ending,when i have finished reading the book(which is without a doubt great),to find that Estella didn't marry pip instead she married another man.However,i found the second ending that i have heard alot about,and found that the second ending is more logical....This series or movie should have implemented the second ending,in my humble opinion.....

[xXRawrxImxThexDinoXx]

@XxIYaoiIxX Lol you were dissapointed, Well the book is called "Great Expectations" and the problem with Pip was that he had too many...first he expected to be a gentleman than that Miss Havisham was his Benefactor and Estella (then she got married) then Biddy and Estella again...another problem is that Dickens (well idk if its a "problem") describes it sooo much he makes it sound likely when in truth everything that is to be expected...isnt.

[Whirlingling]

FYI I've noticed that many people use this same notation on their episodes or something similar like decimal points instead of back slashes. Just follow all the 1's before moving on to the 2's etc and you won't get lost. I have noticed that YT screws up the order of the next video sometimes (it did with GE a couple times for me) so you do need to keep an eye on that too. It always seems to happen after I've come bake from taking a break. Hope some of my babbling helps. {:o)

[Whirlingling]

Coolbean it goes like this... GE 1 in which there are 12 possible episodes which are notated 1/12, 2/12, 3/12, etc....12/12. Then it goes on to the 2nd movie in the series GE 2 of which there are 7 episodes.1/7, 2/7,... 7/7. Then onto GE 3, again 7 episodes so it ends with GE 3 7/7.Hope that clears things up.

[coolbean08]

i dont understand the way you have uploaded.....why are some videos great expectations 1, while some are 2 and this is 3?

[jamierourketen]

was not seperated from drummle! he died! jesus,the liberties they took with this great story! but thanks for putting it up!

[Moviestoexcape]

I think I liked Bleak House and Little Dorrit better, I like 'meaty' movies but prefer that they end up happy to a certain degree. This one is kinda depression or more bitter then sweet. The other two, and of course The Christmas Carol, ended more on the sweet note.

[MCRomg]

My heart wrenches whenever I see them kiss...it's just so cute.

[uyuyij]

o.o wait wait wait ... WHATT happened to the Havisham person o.o ?

[MCRomg]

@uyuyij She died in the fire.

[M3TALMALITIA]

as if they wudnt leave the 'suffering has been greatest teaching' line, huuuge theme

[PhailWynn]

So, thank you very much LadyAmaltheaUnicorn, for uploading this. I've never seen this before :) I'm off to watch your Jane Eyre now.

Thanks again!

[gertrudewhite]

That is a really retarded ending though.

[PhailWynn]

its not really.. i mean.. if you hadn't read the book, its not bad. Its just that so much is taken away between the novel and the movie. If you've read the book (especially as many times as i did, as it was one of my favourites) its hard not to be a little disappointed by the film. This is true in any case, not just this one. Book trumps movie almost 100% of the time. But.. having adapted a book to a stage play once myself, I realize its usually an impossible task to do the book justice.

[mark9111111]

@PhailWynn yeah, if they put the whole book in the movie, and copy every detail of it, it would probably take all day to watch it. Books are the perfect entertainment, if you ask me

[gertrudewhite]

It would be nice if some people could be civil with their comments.

[grunt616]

they dont make out in the book

[csakizli]

in pride and prejudice mr darcy not diving in lake or kiss elizabeth too.

[sweetcleverfemale95]

sche loks much more prettier when she is upset rather than cruel

[anderwaldmanman2]

is this the original ending?

[MinhonYT]

1:09 heart melting

[lookingback7]

I think it was a very good ending. Very artistic because it came full circle with them playing cards and being friends.

[hedonistic2008]

Thank you!

[PearlHarbFan]

I am glad this video was shared to me. Great video and keep up the great work!! Thank you for this upload.

[LadyAmaltheaUnicorn]

Well, thank you for the reply! I'm happy to share my little finds when I come across them, that is if someone else hasn't already uploaded them : )

[mmedefarge]

This ending here takes the middle ground between Dicken's original ending where Estella remarries & Pip remains single & the 2nd ending which most know, of Pip rescuing her from the ruins & they run off together. This one makes more sense, Estella as a divorced woman, would not be marriage material for any one in society & the social stigma of these two marrying would perhaps be too much for society to bear. There is still a huge class divide between the two but an attraction just the same.

[AshtonArcher]

The second (and published) ending is ambiguous. This adaptation is awful. Pip is truly unlikeable throughout - no sense of redemption which is one of the key themes of the novel. Joe is even nasty in this one - too simplistic and one dimensional; seems like Tony Marchant went a bit bonkers and just reinvented the characters as he saw fit.

Estella isn't divorced. READ THE BOOK!

[AshtonArcher]

You didn't read it very well then, if you get the basic facts wrong.

[mmedefarge]

When I referred to Dickens original ending, I was referring to the one he wrote & later changed. He did write originally that Estella was divorced & later changed it to the ambiguous ending (as it was ambiguous then you can take it as you please). The ending that I referred to as the ending "which most know" was the one presented in some other screen adaptations. You can un-knot your knickers now, kid.

[AshtonArcher]

No. Again you are wrong with your facts sunshine. In both versions of the endings Drummle is killed by a horse, not divorced from Estella. This ending that Marchant has wrote for this version it seems pretty obvious that they will get together. Even the revised original ending is ambiguous, but errs on the side of a reconciliation.

I wrote my MA dissertation on Great Expectations, so I know what I'm talking about. You, obviously don't 'kid'.

[mmedefarge]

I concede to the expert on Great Expectations. Everyone should be good at something.

[PhailWynn]

You're right, i think. I'm not sure Drummel's ending by horse is the original version or not as that's the only version i've read. But that IS what i remember.

I always got the sense from the book, however ambiguous the ending, that they did NOT come together as anything more than friends And it was years after the kerfuffle with debtor's prison and the whole Magwitch horrorshow.. not as recently as the movie suggests. I think..

[icecatblue]

@mmedefarge

In Dickens' revised ending, they simply remain friends, as is shown in this adaptation.

[XXsmswacXX]

@icecatblue Actually, it is unknown whether or not they remain friends. It is more probable that they end up getting married in the revised ending.

[Playahater77]

I watched this whole movie and now I have to read it for English class, what a different ending

[twilight6200]

it is a different ending! i wish they wouldve just gotn married. i mean cards? seriously cards?! in the original ending they part friends in the other ending they stay together. wich one was this?

[AshtonArcher]

Jesus. You seriously are a moron aren't you? It was a shit ending scripted by some imbecile. READ THE FUCKING BOOK MORON.

[requiemaura]

That last scene lit up the abyss within me like christmas lights in winter only to shed a tear in the blackout that followed.

[Elphie108]

Well they were pretty liberal with the plot, weren't they? Most of that wasn't in the book. Especially the end! HAH!

[xXxLaurenxoxoxXx]

hey thanks for posting this its help quite alot im actually playing biddy in our school production of this and well i didnt actually know much about this but its helped alot and hopefully once rehersals start i should have lots of fun thanks once again Lauren xoxo

[JeffandIoanFan]

I would just like to thank LadyAmaltheaUnicorn sooo much for posting this video! thank you :)

[yayiluvthis]

i luv Great Expectations!

[gigi2114]

wow. that so didn't happen in the book. hahahaha

[TheEditrix92]

Wow! What a story. . . I'll have to read the book ASAP.

[PhailWynn]

The book is far, far better. Its nothing against the movie. The book is always better :). You'll really enjoy it.

[moonstruckfaye]

Well, they've changed the end a bit, but I think the mood of the book was well expressed. Miss Havisham was brilliant -although I had imagined her differently - Joe (the actor was Caleb Garth in Middlemarch or not?) was also good, like Biddy, Wemmick, the sister, Estella...and Jaggers was as mysterious and scary as in the book and all the other actors were good too. And after all they didn't make a hollywood filmending with them being married and happy ever after ; )

Thanks a lot Lady Amalthea!

[PhailWynn]

i personally felt jaggers and wemmick were somewhat miscast. But they did their jobs very well nonetheless. Perhaps it wasn't that they were miscast.. but in the book they are so significant and i felt this significance was missing in this movie. However, given the task of adapting such an epic book, i have no complaints.

[goodluckpeace44]

Pip, Joe were such a great characters, they were the characters derived from the dusk and the birds

[goodluckpeace44]

this story is very deep though especialy the music and the dust.

makes me think of my own life

[swfcjess]

what is the song called at the end?

[k9596]

thank you!

what a peculiar ending... now i simply have to read the book and find out what "really" happened...

who is the actress playing estella? is she the same person who is in dollhouse?

[goodluckpeace44]

they are playing a game of chess this story is not as great as the book believe me

[ShawDAMAN]

Agreed. :-|

[ShawDAMAN]

The ending here is NOTHING like the book ending. Just so you know ;P

Justine Waddell is the actress however and a very good one. =P

[goodluckpeace44]

you just like the actress because she is pretty. just dont be technical, if you want to be technical, the only technician here was Charles Dickens

[ShawDAMAN]

I really don't understand your comment, but no, I don't just like her because she's pretty. She's a fine actress. I was impressed with her portrayal of Molly in "Wives and Daughters." Anyway Estella was supposed to be very beautiful- I've heard people say that Waddell was not pretty enough for the role!

Do you like this movie or not? I've actually never seen it except clips. Simply because I prefer a more book faithful adaptation. I'm not sure what you're driving at.

[goodluckpeace44]

well You must watch this, you know why? it is true that the story has been changed, but BBC is not like any other, it has studied thurowly and made those characters, and the image of Joe was brilliant, and it was very imortional when I saw the crops in the field with the pips childhood song sung and faded in th end. did you see that? it was so sweet. Sweet sweet. I cant watch it again because it reacts me badly. Pip was quite a child, if you read the book, his illutions were quite surreal

[ShawDAMAN]

Well, put yourself in the position of a person who has read the book and is a big fan of the book. You loved the book and so you go to see a film adaptation of it only to find that it's almost a different story altogether! In the book she marries Drummle and then is widowed when he dies in a horse riding accident! Pip and Estella run into each other by chance, both wanting to see the old house again....

[goodluckpeace44]

you should read books to admire the literature. Stories can change,

I am not sure about Estella, but the Convict, Joe, Bifddy and small Pip were very well playesd in my opinion. 1946 one was hrrible

[ShawDAMAN]

....there is a hint that they will get together some day but no notion of them agreeing to just be friends since she's still married or of her living in that house... and she was never this "warm" with Pip in the book.

Nevertheless I don't mean to be picky, I'm sure it's a fine film as such. I may watch it sometime. ;-D

[goodluckpeace44]

a movie make likes to make his own story and improvise, its a part of the art.

but i think it was what charles himself had in mind about the farm field and such the marshes.

[glen922]

Of course I meant to say, 'those who had not already read the book should do so,' and did not mean to imply that anyone had not. The character limit made me do it.

[glen922]

Thanks for posting, obviously a lot of work.

As for the film: close enough to the written work that I could not mistake it for another, but far enough from it that, considering the ample length of the film, I have to wonder why? Did they believe they could improve upon Dickens concepts? Think they had a better idea? The 'Dramatised by' opening credit is a laugh. I thought Dickens had done that. And the ending? It was neither of Dickens' endings at all.

Read the book, you'll be glad you did.

[mamicafericita]

Thank you so much!! Great film!

[ClassicLiterature]

Thanks, I have added this to my classic literature playlist collection.

[LadyAmaltheaUnicorn]

You have a great collection, I'm bookmarking it :)

[Keranofkri]

ty for all the trouble of posting good story.

[Taramriel]

Wonderful.

I only wish I had more time to read one his novels, Copperfield for example being one which would need a lot of time!

[falleninto]

This version was a bit different tan the book.

[sabafa8Pd8]

Excellent!

[livmlarsen]

I've stumpled upon this film more than once, but have only just watched it now. I like Ioan Gruffudd, he was also great in the Hornblower series. Thank you for uploading:-)

[nowayjose222]

gorgeously done! Ioan Gruffudd played Pip to perfection! Thank you soo much for uploading this, you're amazing!

[CandyArsenic]

*claps* Best movie ever <3

Charles Dickens is a genius.

[mssabik]

agreed. but his novels are so darn too long :| I hardly finished one, so what I could do is just watch the adaptations into films. But I don't know what I have missed.

[LexiixoxRoxx]

This film is good but it is innaccurate. You should read the book little by little. It's really good! =]
