Fantastic adaptation of George Bernard Shaw's' classic.
A truly wonderful cast brought this well known and much loved story to life. Tim Pigott-Smith gave us a Henry Higgins with just the right amount of layed back loathing, Michelle Dockery played a brilliant Eliza Doolittle and Una Stubbs brought plenty of laughs to Mrs Pearce.
'PYGMALION' was a sculptor who created a female statue so beautiful that he fell in love with what he had crafted. He begged the goddess Venus to bring the statue to life; she did, and Pygmalion married his creation...!
...It was 'loverly'!!
