Tonight on ITV1 Pride and Prejudice gets a whole new makeover courtesy of new series Lost In Austen. The four-part drama takes Jane Austen's popular novel and throws in modern day woman Amanda Price (played by Jemima Rooper). When Elizabeth Bennet turns up in her bathroom through a secret portal, Amanda takes her favourite book and escapes in to Austen's world. What follows is her attempt to keep the plot on track as her modern day mores confuse the characters. I've seen the first couple of episodes and think it's a great premise which is well executed, so I'd recommend you give it a go. What do you reckon — will you watch Lost In Austen?

Post a Commenti love you mr. darcy!
ummm interesting... my boy will hate it but will sky plus and watch on a quiet day! Not positive if I'll like it though!
I saw the preview for this and loved that ... so hopefully I will love the show too!
I love anything that has to do with Miss Austen. I can't wait to see this but I wonder if it'll ever come on in the US.
I was ready to entirely skip it, but if you say it's worth it, I might give it a try..
Not for me. I'm really not interested in this sort of time travel premise, maybe that's why I hate 'Life on Mars' and 'Doctor Who'.
I saw the trailer and it looks promising. I'm hoping that those of us in the US will be able to see it soon.
