| The video of the London Merrily was terrible. I hope this version is miles better. I know Sondheim liked Friedman’s version but I frankly would have preferred seeing Doyle’s version which he did in Ohio. | |

| Even I, who can't stand Doyle generally, would have preferred to see that as his casting concept seems to me a better idea than the standard one seen in the revision of people in the middle of the age range. Having said that, I didn't hate the London version as seen onscreen. I didn't love it, but I didn't hate it. And I liked the Charley a good deal. Perhaps more than anyone since Lonny Price, who still remains the standard as far as I'm concerned. |

| I agree the Charly in that production was very good. Also agree that Price remains the standard and the best that there's been in bringing that role to life. But I am genuinely surprised to find that you didn't hate that production. |
