I'm leaning toward Robert Newton's portrayal of Long John Silver as being
the official one for Toobworld, even though it was not the first. His
peg-legged pirate is however the most famous one and really captures the
public's vision of the character. In this way, his Long John Silver is much
like Jeremy Brett's Sherlock Holmes - far from the first, but the definitive
version for Earth Prime-Time.
As such, that means Kit Taylor's portrayal of young Jim Hawkins would be
the official resident of the main TV dimension. Here's a studio portrait of Jim
Hawkins......
Am I the only one who see it? I'm thinking that Jim Hawkins' family tree
can be traced forward into the present day and ultimately lead us to one of the
leading "detectives" of the day.....
Patrick Jane.
BCnU!
