Cold Comfort Farm (1995) - PART 6

In England in the early 1930's, 20 year old Flora Poste, recently orphaned and left with only 100 pounds a year, goes to stay with distant relatives on Cold Comfort Farm. Everyone on the gloomy farm is completely around the twist, but Flora tries to sort everything out...

This is yet another great adaptation of a great book - and it's so delightfully funny and cleverly-written. Kate is so lovely in her role as Flora. Her appearance as a penniless heroine reminded me of Emma Woodhouse and Northanger Abbey. Don't miss the hilarity-driven performances by respected actors like Ian McKellen, Eileen Atkins, Rufus Sewell, Stephen Fry, and Rupert Penry-Jones!

The old lady is hilarious, constantly spouting, "I saw something nasty in the woodshed!" The English have their dramas don't they?

[Shilara]

yeah but you never get to find out what she actually saw. I know its not the point really, but I want to know what the something nasty was. I want to know what its all about!

Never saw or heard of this tele-film and I am entranced. Of course Joanna Lumley is heaven in anything. She could sit and read the adverts in Punch and it would be entertaining. The whole cast is superb including Kate B. She I often find a bit bland or trying too hard but here she is quite in her element. Sarcastic and biting comedy. Christopher Bowen looking his charming self naturally as a good Libra does..... same birthday as me which means he is perfectly balanced LOL Thank you many times.

I WOULDNT CRAWL OVER JOANNA TO GET TO HER......WHAT DU YOU SAY CHAPS ?

@27twentyseven27 Kate is a far richer, far more famous actress because of going to Hollwood, and she's done far more than just blockbuster action crap. Whether that matters or not, is anyone's guess. I'd suggest you check out Last Days of Disco, Snow Angels, Winged Creatures, Nothing But the Truth, Serendipity, The Aviator, and Click, if you want to see her in something other than blockbusters.
