I AM sure I am not alone in having my enjoyment of the BBC adaption of Little Dorrit totally ruined by the crass programming of Dickens’ story. I can only assume the BBC plans a finale at Christmas, no doubt to try and spoil ITV viewing figures.
Who are these faceless bureaucrats at the BBC who put their own ratings way above the enjoyment of the viewing public?
Quite simply, they have ruined their presentation of Little Dorrit by showing it in two half-hourly episodes instead of one hour on a Sunday evening.
However, after the fiasco of the Brand/Ross affair, why should we be surprised?
