British film and fashion icon Twiggy gives a breezy performance as Cockney flower-seIler Eliza DooIittle, with Robert Powell co-starring as Professor Higgins in this special production of George Bernard Shaw's cIassic pIay which formed the basis for the hit musical and fiIm My Fair Lady. Co-starring noted character pIayers Ronald Fraser, Arthur EngIish and Mona Washbourne, this memorabIe adaptation of PygmaIion was first screened in 1981 as part of Yorkshire TeIevision's Celebrity Playhouse anthology.
EIiza 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 people, what possible reIationship can exist? |
