Such a fond memory from childhood. How did you get hold of this, and do you have the other 2 episodes as shown in UK. Love to see what title sequence the BBC made for it. I have the original film version on DVD but prefer the way it was shown in UK. Do you have any other old 70s serials?...Im trying to track down Kizzy

This is the first time I see this UK version, and I must say, I'm shocked! Narrated by one single person changes the whole film, it makes it sterile!!! And worst, the beautiful songs are covered by chattering :-(  What a cheap way of dubbing this masterpiece. why didn't they just subtitle one of the two original versions (either the czech or the eastgerman)? All the atmospere of the original versions has gone, I surprised that THIS was a succes nevertheless

she is as beautiful as I remember her being. The most perfect cinderella in live action film EVER

[rosaeyeliner]

oh my. the norwegian dubbing is definatly better than the english one. he is funny and makes different voices for the people without saying `he says` and `this is happening`. really annoying.
