Hello, I have this on VHS tape and due to its wear and tear, I recently bought it on DVD and it's a lot clearer and has extras on it. IMO, newcomer Julie T. Wallace was the clear star of this magnificent BBC adaptation of Fay Weldon's novel. It was a master of a movie or mini-series. I loved the scene where Wallace's character of Ruth beds the priest and they talk over religion. Wallace's eyes were sparkling as Ruth and glistened when she would bring her glowing eyes to the surface. Another favorite scene was when Ruth was being the nanny to the judge that was presiding at Bobbo's trial for embezzlement and she is trying to get the judge to indicate what he would rule in the case and suddenly she stands up and is transformed into the She-Devil right in front of the fireplace. That was her shining moment. The music was befitting to the series and Christine Collister was great in the theme song, "Warm Love Gone Cold." I would love to have a copy of that recording. Great masterpiece, superior acting, and great location shootings. Best mini-series I have ever seen. Yours, Susan
