THEORY OF RELATEEVEETY: FROM JIM TO JANE



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!
