Title: BBC makes an epic fail with Gormenghast
Product review: The casting, acting, directing, screenplay and sets are all third rate. If you are a fan of Mervyn Peake or never read his books I failed to find one reason for you to watch this DVD. Jonathan Rhys-Meyers was brilliant in "The Tudors" but in as Steerpike he is silly, superficial and all wrong for the part. Nothing saves this BBC production in my opinion. My copy is in the trash so no other poor sap makes the mistake of trying to watch it.
