This is an action-packed re-telling of one of the most dramatic and enduring stories from The Bible. In a lavish, three-hour production, we follow the life of David from his humble beginnings as a shepherd boy, though his famous victory over the giant Philistine warrior Goliath and on to his rapid elevation as great king and prophet. All of his life and 40-year reign, the highs and lows, the triumphs and tragedies, are brilliantly recreated in this new epic for our time. The star-studded cast includes Nathaniel Parker (Inspector Lynley Mysteries) in the title role with Leonard Nimoy (Star Trek film and TV series, Armageddon) as God's messenger, Samuel; Jonathan Pryce (Pirates of the Caribbean, Tomorrow Never Dies, Evita, Carrington, Jumpin' Jack Flash) as Saul and Franco Nero (Die Hard 2, The Visitor, Force 10 From Navarone) as Nathan.
David is just one of many new titles from Time-Life's 'The Bible'. Look out for more in this marvellous new epic series including Jesus, Joseph, Moses, Abraham and Samson and Delilah featuring international stars including Ben Kingsley, Gary Oldman, Jacqueline Bisset, Richard Harris, Diana Rigg, Michael Gambon and many more.
