Yes, it's adapted from the Wilkie Collins novel. I bet you'd enjoy it if you liked that story.

Re: Lady in White
There's me thinking that it would be something along the lines of 'The Lady in Black', a horror film!We watched the first episode, for a short time, until I found it nothing more than boring.
Marge likes it, though, and is still watching it. I did find the bit about the woman in the straight jacket mildly interesting, but that was it.

Re: Lady in White
I've always liked the 'period' type programmes.I know there is violence and treachery in it, but I still prefer it to all the swearing, guns, and car chases in so many other things now.
I think we have far too many American films/series shown too. So many of their films are the same I find. Car chases, squealing tyres, people hanging out of car windows shooting each other, etc.
I reckon even if it was an American cookery programme, they'd still fit in a car chase somewhere.
Perhaps it's just me, but it really gets on me wick.

Most of the American films of that sort are so predictable. The star and his mates will always end up fighting, the main man will come out on top and then they'll all be friends again.
The goodies' guns never miss and never run out of bullets, unlike the baddies' guns.
Clearly, it's what American audiences like, but to me it's all too shallow and not worth watching.
