The BBC adapted Alison Uttley’s children’s book in a miniseries of five half-hour
episodes, faithfully taking young Penelope Taberner Cameron back to Elizabethan England and
the time of Mary, Queen of Scots. If you can find the British DVD, you'll even hear Simon
Gipps-Kent regale Penelope with “Greensleeves.”
