Synopsis
This two-part British miniseries was based on a classic gothic novel by Sheridan J. LeFanu. Having inadvertently caused the death of one of his tenants, wicked Squire Fairfield (
Derek Jacobi
) adopted the dead man's daughter Alice (
Naomi Watts
). No sooner had Alice grown to womanhood that the satyr-like squire attempted to "have his way" with her. Escaping the Squire's clutches, Alice eloped with Fairfield's virtuous son Charles (
Iain Glen
) -- but she was not quite out of the wood yet, thanks to a series of disturbing nightmares, a wraithlike mystery woman, and the machinations of Charles' diabolical brother Harry (
Jack Davenport
). The Wyvern Mystery originally aired on March 5 and 12, 2000. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
