A BBC CLASSIC
Long over due to be made available on DVD this was one of the classic BBC drama series of the late 1970s. Based on the personal journals and letters of the crew of HMS Beagle during its voyage under Capt Robert Fitzroy with Charles Darwin as unofficial ship's naturalist. This voyage lead to Darwin developing his theories of evolution and to the publication of "On the Origin of Species" in 1859. However the story covers much more Darwin's observations of natural history - it deals with his interactions with the wider world and the events and relationships that shaped his thinking. In particular his relationship with Fitzroy, the mercurial, generous, ultra-conservative, perfectionist naval officer who would go on to be recognized as the father of weather forecasting, but who is ultimately a tragic figure. The performances are excellent; Malcolm Stoddard is the definitive Darwin (includes a strong physical resemblance) and Andrew Burt is brilliant as Fitzroy. David Ashton gives excellent support as the loyal and amiable Lt. Wickham and Peter Settelen as Lt Sullivan. The wonder is that their acting careers did not take them to greater heights. The locations and the recreation of the Beagle's voyage won a BAFTA for best cinematography and it won another as best factual series, but it works just as well as a drama and is no simple documentary. The triumphs and tragedies of both Darwin's and Fitzroy's lives unfold as these two, who met as young men grow older as one develops new ways of seeing the world whilst the other holds tight to the traditional views of his youth. Through them we see the human impact of the theory of evolution. It took its toll on both men. These series ranks with the best the BBC has ever produced. I first saw it as a young ecology graduate and found it a revelation.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
