This is one of three main versions of Old Curiosity Shop available today, and this is by far the most thorough and true to the novel of the 3. It does of course suffer from low budget British 70s TV production, and is very slow in pace compared to modern adaptations. But it is this that allows it to be so thorough. Some of the acting is so so but some is really good (Trevor Peacock as Quilp is a Dickensian villain for the history books). Not available online so you will need to buy the DVD, but it is worth it. The 1995 is a very good but family friendly version. The 2007 version is skippable.
