My Family and Other Animals (1987)
Loved every minute.
Every week when it came on TV I would not talk to anyone. I would not answer the telephone. Unlike someone who did not like the music I loved it. This is one of the happiest, most enjoyable, series I've ever seen. No, it is the happiest most enjoyable. I wish there were ways to see it streaming. Everything about that series was perfect. The cast was perfect, the settings beautiful, and the comedy of errors hilarious. If anyone wants to find something they can just let go, and enjoy, this is it. If you've not read the books please do.
It is based on the memories of Gerald Durrell. He must have has a wonderful childhood. He was interested in anything that scurried, slithered, barked, flew, swam. Once grown he set up a zoo on one of the channel islands to help conserve wildlife.
What an interesting life.
