The Bagthorpe Saga

The Bagthorpe Saga, a six-part adaptation of the first two novels (''Ordinary Jack'' and ''Absolute Zero'') was broadcast by the BBC in 1981. The character of Rosie was eliminated and some of her dialogue and character attributes were given to Tess. The series was filmed in the summer of 1980 in Tetbury, Gloucestershire; Manor Farm on the Chavenage House estate was used as the Bagthorpes' home, Unicorn House. Each episode ran for 30 minutes.
