Joanna Trollope's book and a galaxy of well-known actors ensured that this series about a cathedral close was a great success. Anthony Way was the icing on the cake, a good actor with a pleasant singing voice. Also worth a mention are James Hopkins for his excellent singing and Edward Hughes for his freckles and grin.

Nice enough, lovely singing from Gloucester Cathedral Choir, though the selection of stodgy Victorian music could have done with some variation. That the future star chorister just walks in with a great voice isn't realistic -- singing like that takes a lot of training, and Anthony Way's St Paul's classmate Connor Burrowes was a far better treble in any case. Way, however, had the looks and the screen presence, used to great advantage here.
