...well. That neatly resolves for me the question of whether it's worth going out of my way to experience this adaptation.
I've been a bit dubious about Davies ever since I realised that "he felt most of the principal characters were weirdly lacking in sexual activity" is a statement that applies to all his adaptations from classical literature, but I don't think I could put up with 6 episodes of somebody getting Javert that badly wrong.
