The Other Bennet Sister

I'm not a fan so far, Mrs Bennett and the girls are too arch and nasty to her, I've not warmed to them at all.
It's also driving me mad that whenever Mary's on screen all I can see is Sam from Corrie.

I quite enjoyed it but I feel anxious not to confuse the appearance of the actors with those in our lovely classic P and P with Colin Firth-----I wish the producer had got the same actors to play the several parts.

As for the story line I---- daresay Austen was correct that marriage was a matter of selling one's personal attractions to the highest bidder, and her novel marked the very beginning of feminism in the character of Elizabeth.

Thank you.
I thought she looked vaguely familiar.

I enjoyed it , but I haven’t read the book , and it’s years since I read P+P
It’s a good Sunday night programme

All Austen’s books are wonderful😃

It's not a Jane Austen book, it's from a book by Janice Shardlow based on the Pride and Prejudice characters.

I recorded it, it probably isn't DH's cup of chamomile!

Loved it.. And Lucy Briers who play "Hill" was in the Colin Firth one as Mary, clever casting.
Not going to binge, this is a lovely gentle Sunday watch.

I didn’t realise it had started either, which channel is it on?

It's on BBC1 and you can binge watch it on iPlayer.

I nearly gave up as it felt like an awkward reworking of P&P but will give the second episode a go to see how it moves on.
I haven’t read the book.

I am a huge fan of the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice with Colin Firth, so am finding it difficult to come to terms with the new actors. However, I think the actress who plays Mary gives a good performance so I shall stick with it.

I loved it, in fact I binged the first 5 episodes. I’m not sure when the next five will be on iPlayer.
I loved the one liners that were as pithy as Austen’s original work.

Oh, is it on already? I really enjoyed the book and have been looking forward to this ! Thankyou Clawdy

I'm enjoying it. The actress who plays Mary (?name?) is giving a good performance despite the degrading scenes like wearing the glasses.
