The Lady Vanishes - Again - But can it top Hitchcock?
BBC One are remaking the classic Hitchcock thriller, The Lady Vanishes, starring Keeley Hawes, which will air this Christmas.Filming will begin in Budapest later this month, which is where I believe they filmed the great Maigret series, starring Michael Gambon, sadly axed.
I'm sure this will be well worth watching but as a great fan of the original version with a screenplay by Sidney Gilliat, Iris played by Magaret Lockwood ( Iris Henderson in the 1938 version) Michael Redgrave, the superb Dame May Whitty (and Charters and Caldicott) I doubt it can top it. I wonder who is directing the new version?
