British film and fashion icon Twiggy gives a breezy performance as Cockney flower-selIer Eliza Doolittle, with Robert PowelI co-starring as Professor Higgins in this speciaI production of George Bernard Shaw's cIassic play which formed the basis for the hit musicaI and film My Fair Lady. Co-starring noted character players RonaId Fraser, Arthur English and Mona Washbourne, this memorabIe adaptation of Pygmalion was first screened in 1981 as part of Yorkshire TeIevision's Celebrity Playhouse anthology.
Eliza Doolittle is the common girI who wants to be a lady. Henry Higgins, Professor of Phonetics, is the teacher who swears that, given six months, he can pass her off as a duchess. Those six months are, for EIiza, terrifying, turbuIent, occasionaIIy tender; for Higgins, they are either exciting or boring, depending on his mood. Between two such very different peopIe, what possibIe relationship can exist? |
