Paul et Virginie (1974)
Very enjoyable series but do not buy the DVD!
As a Mauritian, it was such a pleasure to watch this series based on the famous book by Bernardin de St Pierre. The writers stretched the storyline to include new characters and plots, which is fine. The acting is decent and we get to see a very young Veronique Jannot debuting what will be a successful acting career. I believe the series was broadcasted in France and Germany in the 70s and 80s.
The official DVD was released in 2011 in Germany and it has disappointed so many who were expecting to watch this series again. The ending is heavily censored to the point that it does not make any sense. There seems to be missing at least one or two episodes to fill in the gap. So please, don't buy it. Instead, let TF1 know that you want the series to be shown again on TV or on their streaming service.
