Jekyll is a British television drama miniseries produced by Hartswood Films and Stagescreen Productions for BBC One. It was written by Steven Moffat and stars James Nesbitt as Tom Jackman, a modern-day descendant of Dr. Jekyll, who has recently begun transforming into a version of Mr. Hyde (also played by Nesbitt). He uses modern technology in an attempt to keep Hyde in check and the two for a while have a peaceful co-existence until it is revealed that they are the key to a secret organisation's one-hundred year old plot.

The series is described by its creators as a sequel to the novella Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, rather than an adaptation of it, and the Robert Louis Stevenson tale is used within the series as a backstory. The series was first transmitted on BBC One in June and July 2007.

Contents

[edit] Plot

Doctor Tom Jackman is a married father of two. A psychologist named Katherine Reimer takes a job caring for him. Abandoned by his mother as a child, Jackman has split from his wife, Claire. In the first episode, Jackman straps himself into a chair and Reimer watches as he undergoes a subtle physical transformation. While Hyde and Jackman are physically nearly identical, a running element of the series is the way in which others perceive them as distinct to the point of asking one where the other has gone.

Reimer observes that Jackman's alter ego exhibits rage, heightened senses, and a more playful and flirtatious manner and assures this persona that she will keep his secrets just as she keeps Jackman's but asks for guarantees that he will not harm her. After being informed of the Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Hyde takes the titular alter ego's name for his own and the two agree to respect the other's autonomy.

Traveling to visit his family who he has kept secret from Hyde, Jackman transforms. To Jackman's family he becomes 'Uncle Billy', Jackman's long-lost cousin. To punish Hyde for transgressing on "his" territory, Jackman locks him in a restraint chair, but Hyde escapes and terrorizes Reimer, accusing her of lying to him. This begins the escalation of conflict between Jackman and Hyde with both leaving notes for the other before transforming.

Miranda Callendar, a detective employed by Claire learns about Hyde and informs Jackman that Jekyll and Hyde was not fiction, but a fictionalized version of actual events. There was a Doctor Jekyll who lived in London. When he is shown a picture of Jekyll, Jackman learns that he looks exactly like him. He assumes he is a descendant of Jekyll's, but Callendar informs him that Jekyll died without children.

Jackman's friend Peter Syme, who is his boss at the biotech firm of Klein and Utterson and an American named Benjamin are revealed to belong to a group which has been tracking Jackman/Hyde. He meets a woman who claims to be his mother and has been working with Reimer, but learns no more from her before she leaves. Jackman heads to Syme's house to learn the truth. Syme attempts to drug him, informing him that Benjamin and other personnel from Klein and Utterson are on their way. Feeling Hyde taking over, Jackman locks himself and Syme in the house's basement, not realizing that Claire has been in the house and is also hiding in the basement. After toying with Syme and Claire, Hyde is confronted by the men from Klein and Utterson. Hyde is captured, but first kills Benjamin. Claire argues that they need to find a cure for him. Syme informs her that they have a cure and Claire watches as her husband is locked in a metal coffin.

Reimer and Callendar confront Syme, claiming they know the truth about Jackman. Callendar claims that Klein and Utterson have access to cloning technology and that Jackman is Jekyll's clone. Syme denies this and orders them taken away. He reveals to Claire that the "cure" her husband is undergoing will not purge the Hyde persona, but Jackman. Klein and Utterson want to examine Hyde in order to synthesize the potion that turned the original Jekyll into Hyde. When the box is opened Hyde is dominant. In a flashback triggered by genetic memory, Hyde sees a meeting between Jekyll and Robert Louis Stevenson. Stevenson reveals that he knows, "there is no potion." Jekyll lied to trap anyone who might try to create another Hyde. Jackman also learns that there was a maid in Jekyll's household whom he was in love with and looks like Claire. It was the love for this woman that released Hyde. Klein and Utterson cloned the maid to provoke a similar change in Jackman.

Enraged by further attempts to harm their family, Jackman and Hyde escape from Klein and Utterson. Klein and Utterson take Claire prisoner and trap Jackman's sons. Hyde manifests, exhibiting greater superhuman abilities (including a limited ability to control electricity) and cuts his way through the Klein and Utterson personnel. Eventually Hyde appears to sacrifice himself to save Jackman's family, having come to the conclusion that Hyde represents unbridled love.

Sometime later Jackman, apparently free of Hyde, has once again separated from his family for their safety. With the help of Callendar he tracks down his mother. Confronting her he asks about his origins, asserting that she must be descended from Jekyll. She is not the descendant of Jekyll, but of Edward Hyde whose rampant sexual appetites left him with several offspring. The final shot of the series is of Jackman's mother transforming into her own Hyde persona, that of Mrs Utterson.

[edit] Production

[edit] Development

Jeffrey Tayor of Stagescreen Productions intended to make a sequel to the original story and joined with Hartswood Films when Elaine Cameron was scouting for ideas for a supernatural thriller.[1] Cameron then approached Steven Moffat for a script, and a six-part series was commissioned by the BBC's Jane Tranter and John Yorke in November 2005.[2] BBC America signed on to provide co-production funding in March 2006.[3] Moffat explicitly describes the series as a sequel, rather than an adaptation, stating that the Jekyll of the original story really existed, and Jackman is his "modern-day descendant dealing with the same problems".[4]

[edit] Casting

James Nesbitt and his agent attended a meeting with Jane Tranter in late 2005 regarding the 2006 series of Murphy's Law. At the conclusion of the meeting, she offered him a script for Jekyll, suggesting that he might like the role. Nesbitt took the script role as a way of putting a distance between his previous work.[5] He was announced as Tom Jackman and Hyde on 12 December 2005,[6] but filming was not scheduled to begin until September 2006, increasing his anticipation.[5]

Michelle Ryan, known for her long-running role in EastEnders, was revealed by tabloid newspaper The Sun to have been cast as "Jekyll's sultry assistant" (Katherine Reimer) in August 2006.[7] Ryan believed herself to be too young for the part, though that aspect had already been written into the character.[8] To prepare, she consulted the Royal College of Psychiatry.[8] The same report named Holby City actor Denis Lawson as having been cast. Lawson consulted his post-graduate son for information on Syme's job.[9] Gina Bellman had previously appeared in Moffat's successful sitcom Coupling, and approached her role as if Claire had become caught up in Tom's mid-life crisis, an angle that impressed the producers.[10][11] Meera Syal was attracted to her role because Miranda was not a clichéd private detective and she thought the humour was "fresh".[12] During the second filming block, Mark Gatiss briefly joined the cast, playing the small but important role of Robert Louis Stevenson in flashback scenes in episode five.[13]

[edit] Filming

The series was filmed in two blocks of three episodes. The first three were directed by Douglas Mackinnon and the second by Matt Lipsey. Each 55-minute episode was filmed over 12 days[1] and filming commenced in September 2006.[7] Nesbitt spent an hour each day being made up as Hyde; a hairpiece lowered his hairline and prosthetics were added to his chin, nose and ear lobes. He also wore black contact lenses to make Hyde "soulless".[14] The transformation itself was never shown on-camera in any of the six episodes. Location filming was done at a private zoo,[1] a large country estate near Henley-on-Thames[14] and in Bognor Regis for some of the scenes whilst on the run and in flashbacks. Filming concluded on 20 December 2006.[15]

Hyde dies protecting Tom's children, refusing to 'share the damage' with his other self after he is shot. The Jackman children appear to have inherited some of the Jekyll/Hyde family genes. It is revealed that the American woman from Klein & Utterson is the Hyde version of Tom Jackman's mother, from whom he inherited the Hyde genes. 

[edit] Characters

  • James Nesbitt as Dr Tom Jackman / Mr Hyde: The main character of the series, Jackman has a terrible curse. When under extreme stress or panic he will transform into the demonic Mr Hyde. While Jackman is a mild-mannered, good-natured and unassuming family man, Hyde is a deranged psychopath with all the urges of an adult man, but only the mental and emotional maturity of a child who commits obscene murders and acts of violence for pure fun. However, Hyde is not pure evil, as he does love his alter-ego's wife and children, considering them his family and regarding them as the only people in the world besides himself he cares about. Jackman resents this however. Hyde also seems to care in some way for Tom, as he refuses to share the damage he endures with Tom, killing himself while sparing Tom. It is revealed in the last episode that whilst Jekyll died a virgin, Jackman is a descendant of one of the many women the original Hyde had sex with. Jackman however is the only perfect copy and the Hyde gene was originally brought out in him by his proximity to Claire Jackman when he fell in love with her. It is revealed that Hyde was not brought out by a potion but by love. Throughout the series, Tom and Hyde show signs of slowly merging and co-operation, shown by Hyde attacking the man who insulted Tom, Hyde's care for Tom's children and saving their lives, Hyde's sparing of Tom's life and Tom and Hyde's co-operation when saving their family. However, they are nearly always at odds, with Tom insisting on trying to control Hyde, by threatening to turn himself over to the police or committing suicide if Hyde killed a person, and handcuffing himself to prevent Hyde from leaving a room.
    Hyde seems to possess abilities Jackman does not, such as accelerated healing, extremely powerful telepathy/mind control, increased agility, strength and speed. He also seems to have a kind of race memory and is constantly aware of his body (e.g he can feel his own blood). Hyde also seems to have some kind of electricity manipulation, as he causes lights to fail when he surfaces. Tom Jackman also seems to have some measure of this as well, as he blacked out London when he surfaced from a deep, coma-like state. Hyde can manipulate his own body, stopping his own breathing and heart. He is also resistible to poisonous gas. Hyde has impressive durability, shown by him taking several bullets. Hyde can see all of Tom's and Jekyll's memories in a hallucination-like way. Hyde can also keep any injuries that he suffered and prevent Tom from suffering them as well, though this is only possible when they co-operate. Hyde possesses black ragged irises, a taller and thinner build than Tom, more hair and a more youthful appearance, as well as fangs when he is enraged.These powers, combined with his nature, causes him to be called "the Devil" in the last episode. Hyde easily killed a fully grown male lion and threw it onto a van's roof from several metres. Nesbitt also plays Dr Jekyll in flashback scenes in the fifth episode, and the Jekyll Zombies in the sixth.
  • Gina Bellman as Claire Jackman: Tom's wife, Claire deeply loves her husband and children and goes to any lengths to protect them from the evil of Hyde. However, she comes to realise at the climax of the series that Hyde is actually out to protect Claire and her children and the real enemy is Klein & Utterson, resulting in Claire coming to view him as a valuable asset in her and her children's fight for survival.
  • Denis Lawson as Peter Syme: The head of Klein & Utterson, Peter Syme was originally the best friend of Jackman but it is revealed halfway through the series that he actually only befriended him because he knew about Hyde, seeking all along to capture him to serve as a pawn in Klein & Utterson's one hundred year old plan; to use Hyde's genetic code to develop a cure for every disease known to humankind. Syme can be ruthless and cold-hearted, but he is not pure evil, justifying his actions in manipulating and capturing Jackman and abducting his wife and children as for "the greater good." He also shows great remorse for his deeds and still likes Jackman as a friend. Despite this he still incapacitates him with nerve gas in the last episode, but the gas fails and Jackman becomes Hyde who kills Syme by exhaling the gas into his body. Hyde does, however, close Syme's eyes as a mark of respect after killing him.
  • Michelle Ryan as Katherine Reimer: Katherine is the sultry young assistant to both Tom Jackman/Mr Hyde. In episode two we find out she works for Dr. Jackman's mother and in a short time has fallen for him. He is oblivious to her attraction, although it is mentioned to him multiple times.
  • Meera Syal as Miranda Calender: A cunning and driven detective who is determined to establish the origins of Hyde and assist Jackman in finding a cure. She possesses a dry acidic wit and is highly intelligent. She and her assistant (Fenella Woolgar) are lovers, and expecting a child.
  • Paterson Joseph as Benjamin Maddox: One of the heads of Klein & Utterson, Benjamin hides his ruthless, sadistic personality and disregard for human life with a light-hearted, jovial sense of humour, able to laugh and joke even in the darkest of circumstances such as when Hyde throws his bodyguard out of the window and later murders a fully-grown lion. He is arrogant and overconfident and makes a fatal miscalculation in thinking he can use Hyde's affection for Jackman's family to control Hyde.
  • Linda Marlowe as Ms Utterson: The American owner of Klein & Utterson. At the end it turns out that she is the Hyde version of Dr. Jackman's mother Sophia.

[edit] Reception

James Jackson of The Times rated the first episode four out of five stars, calling Nesbitt's performance as Hyde "as entertainingly OTT as a dozen Doctor Who villains, with a palpable sense of menace to boot". The conspiracy plot is praised as a storyline that distinguishes this series from other adaptations.[20] The Daily Telegraph's Stephen Pile criticised the script for "veering between Hammer horror and larky humour" and for being "cheesy". He also criticised Hyde's gravity-defying hijinks and mistook Michelle Ryan for a model.[21] In the same newspaper, James Walton called the first episode a combination of "a good yarn with several nicely thoughtful touches".[22] David Cornelius of DVDTalk was full of compliments for the series, summing up its review with the statement "six episodes, 300 minutes, not a single one of them wasted. "Jekyll" is this year's finest television event".[23] The Australian Broadcasting Corporation, commenting on the series being part of their 2008 line-up, said "This classic horror tale has been given a modern make-over that will leave you on the edge of your seat and begging for more. James Nesbitt is outstanding as the new Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde".[24]

In an August 2007 interview with the New Jersey Ledger, Moffatt told Alan Sepiwall that he had a sequel written for the miniseries "should the BBC be interested".[25] Nesbitt was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actor in a Mini-Series or Motion Picture Made for Television for his roles.[26] Paterson Joseph received a mention in the nominations for the 2008 Screen Nation awards.[27]
