  • So last week we hit 100 subscribers, and Holy Moly this week we hit 100,000 minutes of view time in the last 4 weeks! Gotta love the 80's dramatisations :)
    Is there any end to these Rainbow/Tempo/Collins tapes?! Well yes, I am sure there will be eventually. I don't have them all yet, but here is one more for the collection.
    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    The cast as listed on the liner notes:
    Matilda - Scarlett Strallen
    Miss Honey - Di Turner
    Miss Trunchbull - Peggy Mount
    Unfortunately it doesn't mention anyone else. Matilda's Dad for instance?? Hey ho.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    A 90 minute Edward Kelsey dramatisation, so I am going to guess this was a Tempo recording from the early 1980's.

  • @anufajemisin4348

    I actually remember listening to this particular version of this story and I absolutely loved it. I'm so pleased I've stumbled upon this again.
    It does cover most of the story although something were left out, but it's an adapted dramatised version so I don't mind.
    I absolutely intend to enjoy this adaptation.

      This version is okay, I have another one where the storyteller talks to Matilda during the story and it's soooo funny, it's the best ever. I think I own 3 different versions, and the one I'm talking about is the most complete.

    Do we need to pay to hear and enjoy this - or is it free? And surely Matilda's father broke the law when he destroyed the library book! That's wilful criminal damage to another person's property!

  • @foxteen8721
    @foxteen8721 Před 3 lety +6

    Unlike the Puffin adaptation, this includes most of the story's detail, while the Puffin version either rushed or omitted certain parts. Good job on this one - needless to say Trunchbull's actress was Mrs. Bumble in the film adaptation of the musical Oliver.

      Greetings from Cape Town, South Africa. I have the Puffin dramatised version of this book and in that version I love the sound of the big v8 engine in the big car the Wormwood family drive away in at the end of the story. The same sound effect is used in the Puffin dramatised version of Danny the champion of the world for Mr Hazell's Rolls Royce. I would love to find that particular sound effect at some point so I can listen to it without dialogue from the storyline. I'm sure it is on BBC Sound Effects but I'm just not sure what the exact name of the clip is called. Good stories though. I'm28 years old and Roald dahl is still one of my all time favourites as an author.

    Wow! another one I remember very well.
    My parents bought me this when I was stuck in hospital for three months as a seven year old following a disasterous eye surgery.
    thanks again for the upload.
    Also btw, the kids here being tormented by the Trunchbull really sound a bit too! good, as an adult its quite disturbing!
    Then again, that's the eighties for you, none of this namby pamby nonsense of messing about coddling kids!
    Btw, any chance you could get the read version of the MinpIns? Only ever heard it twice, it had an amazing soundtrack, which I honestly wanted to get on its own, and as Dahl's final book, it always holds special memories for me.
