Sense & Sensibility : Complete BBC Series [2008] [DVD]
Excellent version of this tale of the conflict between rational thought and feelings of the heart. The performances and casting are good, and although the settings are perhaps a little too romanticised, they are still satisfactory. The adaptation by Andrew Davies keeps all essential elements whilst being lively and not afraid to show unpleasant things.
The better of the two adaptations available. Felicity Jones is a good Catherine, not too silly, and Carey Mulligan excels as the sly but naive Isabella. J J Feild makes a charming Henry. The settings are all well-done, despite it being filmed in Ireland, and the script by Andrew Davies is good.
This is the well-known and excellent adaptation of Jane Austen's classic novel. Made as a mini-series by the BBC, with Colin Firth as Mr Darcy.
It's long, but then so is the book. The production is extremely well done and sticks closely to the story.
Thoroughly enjoyable.

Northanger Abbey is a little different from Austen's other novels, in that it's overtly amusing, and something of a spoof on the 'gothic' novels of the time.
This adaptation - made originally for ITV - is fairly true to the book, with realistic characters. Cathering Morland in particular (Felicity Jones) seemed very believable.
My husband watched with me and despite not having read the book, enjoyed it too. There were a couple of moments when we both laughed out loud.
Highly recommended to anyone who likes period dramas, or who is a fan of Jane Austen's writing.
