HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

Seraherrera The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Paul Evans The Doll has always been one of my favourite Durbridge penned dramas. Getting hold of a copy hasn't been easy, but worth it.It is great throughout, the story is wonderful, terrifically complex, but wonderfully intriguing. It's very much a psychological thriller, all sorts of tricks and deceptions cunningly used throughout. The success of the whole thing in my opinion rests with Anoushka Hempel, noted for so many major talents, possessing such pure beauty, it was her acting that makes this so engaging. Phyllis had to captivate Matty, but Hempel manages to captivate an audience. Her character is elusive, intriguing, fascinating, no wonder Matty's life was turned around. John Fraser does a great job as the baffled Matty, Cyril Luckham is of course fabulous as Sir Arnold.The usual Durbridge tricks on show, the picture in the photo shop window, mistaken identity, Durbridge fans will love it. The conclusion is very much unexpected, you'll have been taken so far off course, that you just don't see it coming.Melissa (1977) will always be my favourite of Durbridge's TV adaptations, but this is a close second. It begs the question why this was available in Germany and Australia, not here in The UK, have we lost the ability to appreciate great TV from a bygone era?Great, 9/10
