About this product

Product Information

Based on the classic young adult novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, THE SECRET GARDEN has been adapted for film and television a number of times. This version was produced for television by the BBC as seven thirty-minute episodes in 1975. Mary Lennox (Sarah Hollis Andrews) is orphaned when her parents die of cholera in India, and she is sent to live with her aloof, wealthy uncle at his large and ominous mansion. At first lonely and indignant, her life is changed forever when she meets the cousins that also live at the mansion, and enters into a vivid fantasy world when they discover a hidden section of the garden on the mansion's grounds. THE SECRET GARDEN has been a beloved coming-of-age story since its first publication in 1911, and this production has often been praised as the finest adaptation of it.

  • This is NOT the movie! But it’s a great story for children....

    I forgot that this was not a movie, so I was surprised when I saw it had “EPISODES” . But I read the book to our daughter when she was young, and it was neat to see and rlisten to all the characters I remembered. I highly recommend this dvd, but it gets a little difficult to make out the “country” language sometimes. You have to listen, but it’s well worth it!. The dvd played well , and the shipping was as stated. I was pleased.

  • Complete version of a great story!

    I found this version on Ebay and was so happy! I previously had the edited version on VHS tape and was worried the original was no longer being made. This is the whole, complete video from the BBC series. It has been re-mastered so the picture is clearer than my old VHS. The inside scenes were shot direct to tape and the outside scenes were transferred, so you can still tell where those interruptions are, but don't fret about that. Just enjoy the most intriguing and positive story of a lifetime. My only regret is that I didn't read "The Secret Garden" when I was a child. The magic would have changed my life. But this DVD makes the story come alive. Enjoy it!
