Just William
Just William is a television serial that first aired on BBC One in December 2010. It is based on the Just William book series by Richmal Crompton, and this adaptation was written by Simon Nye. It marks the first adaptation of the books since a children's television series in the 1990s. The series features Daniel Roche in the title role of William Brown, with Rebecca Front and Daniel Ryan portraying William's parents. Caroline Quentin and Warren Clarke play the parents of Violet Elizabeth Bott, the Brown family's neighbors. The series was directed by Paul Seed and produced by John Chapman. Martin Jarvis, known for voicing the radio and audio CD adaptations of Just William, serves as the narrator. Various sources indicate that the series will not be returning for a new season.
