Wuthering Heights is a 1953 British TV production of Emily Brontë's classic 1847 novel. [1] It was made because Richard Todd, then at the height of his film popularity, expressed interest in playing Heathcliff and the BBC arranged for an adaptation to be made. [2]
The production was very popular, although no recordings are thought to have survived. [3] Kneale's script was filmed in Australia in 1959. [4]
