I would never have mentally pencilled Nicholas Lyndhurst in as Uriah 
Heep - before the broadcast - never in a million years.  Yet he was 
brilliant in that role.  Usually they make Uriah older and in fact 
he's quite young.  

My other favourite was a revelatory Trevor Eve as Mr Murdstone.  He 
usually plays very different characters too.
