sorry bit of a thread wander .......tried to find an old thread which mentioned using a "black" actress for the role of Nancy in Oliver Twist , the first part of the BBC production was shown last night on US television . Didn't think too much of it , think certain roles/actors stick in the mind , Alec Guiness as Fagin , Olivier (sp?) as Richard III, Sean Connery as James Bond etc .
(hopefully someone can direct me back to the original thread) thanks
