摘要：

This paper examines the way the BBC adapted Chaucer’s Miller’s Tale for their 2003 telefilm series of six selected Canterbury Tales. Focusing in particular on the two “bottom scenes”, it will be demonstrated how the BBC translate and adapt these scenes to suit the tastes of the early evening TV spectators by eliminating the most explicit passages found in the medieval source.
