The masterful (and faithful) re-telling of Jules Verne’s classic “Around the World in 80 Days”, which aired as a mini-series on television in 1989, starring Pierce Brosnan, Eric Idle, Peter Ustinov, and Julia Nickson. STORYLINE: “Phileas Fogg accepts a wager to prove his contention that a man can go around the world in 80 days. After betting his entire fortune, he takes his new butler (a man hoping for a quiet life) on a tour of the world. However, just before the time he leaves, the Bank of England is robbed and a Detective believes that Fogg is the guilty party and he sets out after him. Among the many adventures and mishaps that threaten the race, it includes the rescue of a beautiful Indian princess who just may win the heart of Mr. Fogg.”

Thank you so much for sharing! Are you going to put the whole miniseries on YouTube? That would be nice if you could. Thanks again!
