1.		Far From The Madding Crowd [1998] from ITV DVD Price: £4.98 Customer Review: One of Thomas Hardy's best-loved novels is sensitively and accurately dramatised in this 1998 classic. Upon inheriting her uncle's farm, the beautiful and assertive Bathsheba Everdene (Paloma Baeza) is the most sought after maiden in the whole of Weatherbury. She's forced to choose between the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		Tess Of The D'Urbervilles [1998] from ITV DVD Price: £3.98 Customer Review: This production encapsulates what Thomas Hardy presents in his novel; the harsh reality of toiling rural wessex, the culture, nature and the hypocracy of victorian society along with tess' tragic tale. The scoring was also very emotive. Would highly recommend this DVD especially over and above the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Northanger Abbey [2007] from ITV DVD Price: £11.08 Customer Review: To my mind this ITV Northanger Abbey production is probably the best Austen adaptation I have seen yet. First, between writer Andrew Davies and director Jon Jones the production team create a perfect blend of trueness to the novel and period yet with contemporary (to us) zest. The truth to the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		Wives And Daughters [1999] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £6.98 Customer Review: The BBC! Where would we be without it and all it's fantastic offerings of cosy period dramas that made us long for an age of corsets, letter-writing, stately homes, balls and aboveall handsome suitors? The good news is that Wives and Daughters lives up to the above expectations being a lavish... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		Lorna Doone from 2 Entertain Video Price: £5.48 Customer Review: The story of Lorna Doone - of love between a man and woman on opposite sides of warring factions - has been filmed many times but this BBC adaptation has an eye-watering cast of TV and film favourites and stunning production values. Told in two 75 minute parts, we see John Ridd (the Heath... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		Cranford : Complete BBC Series [2007] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £10.98 Customer Review: I think they should not have mixed the three books to make this film. This has made it confusing and took away the charm of Mrs. Gaskell's writing... such a pity! Why cant they stick to the book??? Why must everything appeal to the TV audiance nowadays?

7.		Wuthering Heights [1999] from ITV DVD Price: £6.08 Customer Review: This is a good attempt at a very difficult book to dramatise. This is one of my all time favorite books so a film version was always going to be challenging, and it was a fair attempt, quite watchable but not a patch on the book, sorry!

8.		Persuasion : Complete ITV Adaptation [2007] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £4.98 Customer Review: This production may not be accurate and in keeping with the novel but I liked it. Rupert Penry-Jones and Sally Hawkins have wonderful chemistry together and she as Anne Eliott give s a really moving performance as the heart-broken and long suffering Anne who was 'persuaded', forced,) by her... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		The Other Boleyn Girl [2003] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £2.98 Customer Review: The Other Boleyn Girl [2003] I have not read the novel, but my impression is confirmed by other reviewers that a great deal of it has been cut in order to condense the plot into this jerky ninety minute BBC budget version, why on earth wasn't it dramatised as a mini series? The most... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		Miss Austen Regrets (BBC) [2008] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £6.98 Customer Review: This is one of the worst films I've seen in my life!When you are watching it,you absolutely can't stand Jane,who is presented sometimes as a mean and sometimes as an old spinster.The worst thing about the film is the way it was shot.Director did a poor job,especially when characters are walking,or... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
