The classic BBC dramatisation of Tolstoy's epic story of love and loss set against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars. Oscar-winning actor Anthony Hopkins heads the cast as the soul-searching Pierre Bezuhov (a role for which he won the 1972 Best Actor BAFTA); Morag Hood is the impulsive and beautiful Natasha Rostova; Alan Dobie is the dour but heroic Andrei Bolkonsky; and David Swift is Napoleon, whose decision to invade Russia in 1812 has far-reaching consequences for Pierre and the Rostov and Bolkonsky families.

  • Tolstoy's classic book brought to the small screen.

    A good attempt to adapt Tolstoy's classic story for the small screen. A vast host of famous actors and actresses take on the roles of the main characters. Great battle scenes as the French army invades Russia and is then destroyed by the winter weather and the following Russian army as it retreats back to France.

  • The 1972 TV serial of War and Peace

    The most comprehensive version of War and Peace ever made as it is 24 hours rather than the usual 2 hours of a feature film. It has time to discover the characters properly.

  • Just like the book

    I really liked the book and am happy to say that this series did justice to the book. A film would not be long enough fir this book. I've that some more modern versions have just tried to sexualize the story. This version tries very well to be like the book.

  • A better version.

    This is a much better acted version of the War & Peace story than the 2015 version, however cinematographically the 2015 version works better for modern television screens.
