Brideshead "Revisted"

Recently my woman-friend came home with some materials lended to her by a friend. The materials were: 1 (one) novel "Brideshead Revisted" by Evelyn Waugh (a man), one (1) feature length movie: "Brideshead Revisted", 4 dvds comprising the box set of the television series "Brideshead Revisted".

My first thought is: what a bizarre name. The name implies that this might be a sequel so I was wondering if we were going to have to watch Brideshead, just "Brideshead" after all this. In fact no. This was just the real title. The story concerns a... well. Actually its really long and epic, so I can't say much about it here. Other than that there is a teddy bear called Alloicious that is in the TV series and not the movie. The other observation is that Brideshead is a huge huge huge palace that supposodley ( I know that is horribly misspelled, but I don't have time to go back and change it) this one single family lives in. The message of that last sentence was supposed to be that THEY USED THEY SAME HOUSE IN THE MOVIE AND THE TV SERIRES> SO IS IT A REAL HOUSE OR DID ONE JUST BITE THE OTHER ONE"S STYLE> STICK THAT IN YOUR PIPE AND SMOKE IT.
