David McK (3764 KP) rated Lord of the Flies in TV

Mar 15, 2026

I know I read William Goldings 'Lord of the Flies' in school.

Truth be told, I didn't remember all that much about it, other than that it went to some very dark places.

As does this BBC adaptation of the same story, following a group of schoolkids who get stranded on an island following a plane crash, and who - with lack of parental authority - find themselves descending into some very barbaric behaviour.

Whilst I can appreciate *what* the editors were trying to show through the strange colour palette and the incidental music, I have to say I found this series to drag somewhat (and wasn't a fan of the same).
