La vengeance aux deux visages

I loved that show! I used to watch it every wednesday with my parents when i was twelve. Too bad it is not available on video as far as i know. Although i think they overdid when they made Stephanie Harper die twice and had her disguised as Tara Welles and then as Princess Talita.

Does anyone know how I can get a copy of this mini-series? Or how I can watch it on-line? It was so good and I've never forgotten it, 30 plus years later.

Stephanie Harper is newly married to Greg Mardsen, a washed up tennis pro. Little does she know that her new hubby and her best friend Jilly are having an affair. She also doesn't know that her hubby is after her money, and he tries to get rid of her by means of throwing her to the crocodiles at her estate called Eden. The keyword is "tries" because she survives (Unknown to everyone)and makes her way to a clinic. After a surgeon fixes her face, she returns...as Tara Welles, the newest fashion model on the scene. She also returns to settle the score with her hubby and best friend, who has become a lush. This is a great 80's mini, and one of my all-time favorites. I wish that it would hit DVD so I could add it to my collection.

I only came across this classic about a month ago on some obscure satellite channel in the early hours of the morning. Within two minutes I was hooked.

Return to Eden has it all - attempted murder, suspense, a gold-digging husband, the backstabbing best friend, a miraculous makeover and some of the best 80s fashions ever seen on film. Follow the amazing adventures of Stephanie Harper from the beginning as she goes from frumpy, middle aged heiress to Tara Welles - toast of the Sydney fashion scene but carrying a secret and plans to get revenge on those who wronged her! This mini series was so successful worldwide that it spawned a weekly serial a few years later.

For fans of glossy 80s soaps Return to Eden is essential viewing from start to finish. The costumes are amazing,the scenery beautiful, the acting is lets say, variable, and the script veers from the sublime to the ridiculous but you will be on the edge of your seat waiting for the next instalment!

A riveting performance from the superb actor, Rebecca Gilling.

This mini-series is a Mile Stone for Australian Television. A heart breaking story about a young woman disfigured in a fight with a crocodile, who falls in love with the plastic surgeon from whom she seeks help.

This is Australian Television at its absolute best.

Oooo, GOEBBS.

A must for all Australians.
