There is about to be a new BBC version of "Bleak House" dramatised by Andrew Davis of "Pride and Prejudice" fame, with Gillian Anderson in the Diana Rigg role. The previous version was 1985 according to "Radio Times". The version of "The Woman in White" shown on TV a few years back took considerable liberties with the plot, trying to be "relevant" by making Sir Percival Glyde's guilty secret to do with child abuse rather than that his parents weren't legally married.
