My dad had read the book but I was more for the audiobooks at the time. I found the audiobook cassette tape in the local library and took it home. I listened to the tapes so much that they ended up warping!!
So imagine my delight when I found this film and that some of it had been filmed in the Isle of Man, about 5 minutes away from my house!
I've never been so disappointed in a film.
Tom and Hatty were just dreadful and captured none of the magic or excitement. After listening to the audiobook for many years I just don't understand how they couldn't have just gone from that to be honest - word for word, or indeed, use the same actors!
The garden was nice though!
