Your review of Pride and Prejudice is just brilliant. As usual, you’ve gone right to the heart of the matter. More importantly, you saved Jill and me from going to see this wretched version of a story we love. (An earlier BBC production — not the famous one with Colin Firth, but the one before that — was terrific.)
Have you ever seen, or written about, the BBC version of Persuasion that stars Chiaran Hinds and Amada Root? We think that’s about the best Jane Austen adoption we’ve ever seen.
