Nothing delights Emma more than meddling in the love lives of others.
Emma
Emma Woodhouse delights in the conviction that she's the perfect matchmaker. But she's playing a dangerous game as she persuades her new friend, the young, pretty and socially inferior Harriet, to reject a marriage proposal to a local farmer in favor of dashing Mr. Elton. So begins a story which challenges Emma's naivety, her social preconceptions and her own relationships.
The Dashwoods start a new life in Devonshire following the death of their father.
Sense and Sensibility
From acclaimed writer Andrew Davies comes this enchanting new adaptation of Jane Austen's classic novel about love and marriage. Marianne Dashwood wears her heart on her sleeve when she falls in love with the charming but unsuitable John Willoughby. Elinor, sensitive to social convention, struggles to conceal her own romantic disappointment, even from those closest to her.
Two rich, eligible and handsome young bachelors gallop into Hertfordshire.
Pride and Prejudice
Andrew Davies' multi-award winning adaptation of Jane Austen's classic Regency romance. Starring Colin Firth, Jennifer Ehle and a fabulous supporting cast, this Pride and Prejudice pulsates with energy as lively; witty Elizabeth Bennet charms smoldering, haughty Darcy against a backdrop of a picture-postcard countryside, small-town assembly rooms and English stately homes.
