1.		Cranford : Complete BBC Series [2007] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £9.98 Customer Review: Absolutely brilliant adaptation and a great ensemble cast. I have to single out Eileen Atkins performance as the one which affected me most - the scene where she sits struggling with her ideas of convention as to whether she can attend the funeral in support of her friend is breathtakingly good - so... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		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

3.		Sense & Sensibility : Complete BBC Series [2008] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £7.98 Customer Review: This series is full of passion, drama and humour. All of the actors are great, and I especially like Hattie Morahan as Elinor. In a very convincing way she manages to portrait Elinor as a warm, intelligent woman with strong feelings underneath her restrained surface. I just love it!

4.		Lost In Austen [2008] from ITV DVD Price: £7.47 Customer Review: This was a great show, one of the funniest, cleverest and best cast things of the last few years (the cast really is amazing!) I caught it first time round on TV and loved it so much I had to get the DVDs. I love period dramas and was unsure at the beginning whether I would enjoy a programme that... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		Wives And Daughters [1999] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £6.98 Customer Review: Impeccable acting. Speech and deportment faultless. How nice to be able to hear every word spoken, unlike some recent Austen adaptations, e.g. Kate Beckinsale and Keira Knightley, both of whom were far too 21st century slovenly.

6.		The Other Boleyn Girl [2003] from 2 Entertain Video Price: £3.98 Customer Review: The novel of "The Other Boleyn Girl" is a bit of a guilty pleasure. I've re-read it many times and can see why it would make an excellent subject for dramatisation so why is it so difficult to get right? OK, so certain things may have to be altered to suit modern sensibilites. The fact that Mary was... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		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

8.		Northanger Abbey [2007] from ITV DVD Price: £5.48 Customer Review: I have yet to see a perfect film or television adaptation of Northanger Abbey, but this one probably comes as close as any. It has its flaws, particularly in some of the screenplay. This has its weaknesses particularly in the dialogue, although I suppose this is inevitable when one tries to condense... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		North And South : Complete BBC Series from 2 Entertain Video Price: £7.98 Customer Review: Beautiful, sensual, violent on the senses and serious. Additive, riveting and gorgeous. If you want a real period drama, this really is it. The acting is superb, the camera work beautiful and the scene when Richard Armitage stands at the window and says 'look back at me...' oh my. Viewers you are in... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
