Screen One (TV Series) Prince (1991) User Reviews

One Man and his Dog

[Sleepin_Dragon · 8/10 · 14 April 2018]

As a Dog lover I can truly relate to this drama, having dogs growing up gives you a different outlook on our four legged friends. It's funny, sad, tragic, nostalgic, it has so much going for it. Sean Bean is great, but watching now I find Celia Montague just wonderful in it, a great French accent, and a character who's feisty, but sad. How she stayed with her husband I'll never know, he and Prince would have been sent packing. I love the setting, the music, fashion, decor etc, fantastic, works so well.

I wish the BBC would get the Screen One and Screen Two dramas out on some format, DVD or digital download, there are so many hidden gems like this in the BBC's archive, it's quite criminal we can't get to see them.

Bravo, 8/10

A screen gem

Before Sean Bean became a worldwide big screen superstar, he starred in Prince, a TV movie about a man and his loyal dog, and also his family and how they live with the dog who is the 4th member of the family.

Sadly, Prince passed away whilst Sean's character was at a conference, so that would have been devastating.

Prince deserves a big screen reboot and maybe Sean Bean can make a cameo appearance.

About a man's love for his dog

For anyone who loves dogs, this is a must see. It is both hilarious and tragic.

The movie is narrated by the daughter who is reflecting on growing up in a small suburban house with her mother, a French woman, and her father, an English long-haul truck driver, and her father's German Shepherd, "Prince".

The father found Prince in a bag with other dead pups during a trip to Cornwall. He rescued the only living pup, Prince, and brought him home where he grew into a very large dog who was fiercely protective of the father and accompanied him everywhere - except on some long trips when Prince stayed at home and terrorised the mother and daughter.

There is an hilarious scene where Sean Bean takes Prince to the local Pub and meets up with a mate who has brought his Doberman. While they are drinking, the two male dogs "hump" on the lawn and a brawl ensues over which man owns the "gay" dog.

I have seen it on TV a couple of times but would love to see it again.

An absolute all-time favourite of mine.

I wonder if it is available on DVD? Does anyone know?

I can really relate to it as I recently lost my 14-year-old Labrador who, like Prince, went everywhere with me for more than a decade.

Screen One, Prince
