Gerald Durrell is not only an outstanding naturalist, but also a wonderful writer. And also a very extraordinary personality. Interest in his books is so high that they have been filmed more than once. For example, by trilogydedicated to Gerald’s childhood and the life of the Durrell family in Corfu, three wonderful series were filmed.

My Family and Other Animals (1987) (UK, Australia, US)

This mini-series consists of 10 episodes of 30 minutes each. Those who have read the wonderful trilogy about the life of the Durrell family in Corfu need hardly be reminded of the plot. For those who haven’t read it, an eccentric English family of a mother and four children of various ages moves from cold, rainy England to a sunny Greek island. And then touching scenes of the life of a very unusual family await you, filled with sparkling humor, optimism and faith in the best – no matter what happens.

My Family and Other Animals (2005) (My Family and Other Animals)

Another film adaptation of the famous trilogy by Gerald Durrell. The plot of this series almost completely repeats the plot of the book “My Family and Other Animals”, so those who fell in love with the young naturalist Jerry, the wild and naive Margot, the hunting enthusiast Leslie and the intellectual writer Larry, as well as their stoic mother, can once again enjoy wonderful story.

The Durrells (2016) (The Durrells)

The plot of this series is based more on the autobiography of Gerald Durrell than on books, so if you’ve read the trilogy about the childhood of a naturalist and writer, you will find both differences in already familiar stories and completely new adventures. However, let’s avoid spoilers.

Let me just say one thing: the creators of the series succeeded in the main thing – they retained the kind and humorous atmosphere of Darrell’s books. And as a result, you will be able to learn new details about the life of this amazing family. This means you will have even more fun.
