| Mr Pye (1986) DVD, Derek Jacobi, Judy Parfitt,Richard OCallaghan,Robin McCaffrey A great wind of change is blowing over the Isle of Sark, and it goes by the name of Mr. Pye. Mr. Pye is a man on a mission, or as he might describe it, an evangelical adventure. He has come to encourage the residents to put aside their differences and embrace his concept of The Great Pal . This proves harder than he expected as Sark has bred a good many long-standing disagreements and rubbed-the-wrong-way rivalries. There s his landlady, the formidable Miss Dredger, and her ongoing feud with the equally formidable Miss George; Thorpe, a frustrated artist in more ways than one, especially by his love for the free-loving Tanty ; and then there s Mr. Pye himself, a man about to discover how demanding the Great Pal can be, as first he pays the price for being too good... and then for being too evil.
