First let me say that the IMDb page for this title is a mess. It is not animated, and the profile image is of some animated version of the Tales of Beatrix Potter. Then Amazon link takes to to a list of animated videos of Beatrix Potter stories. Nope - Not it!
The BBC miniseries that ran on Masterpiece Theater is a well made and acted biography of Beatrix Potter. Like so many of these BBC productions it is simple, well made, well written, well acted, and an enjoyable way to spend an evening or two relaxing and watching a wonderful story unfold.
The BBC has been pretty good about releasing there television series but there are a few they have totally LOST! "The Tale of Beatrix Potter" and "The Voyage of Charles Darwin" are two that come to mind. So if you are a fan of sophisticated dramatic television with a sense of history, write to the BBC and help get these titles released.
Sorry about there not being a lot of detail in this review, but what's the point if you can't have the joyous experience of watching this show.
