This BBC series is really very good indeed. So much better than the recent film starring Keira Knightley, it's a shame that few people know about it. Being a series, they haven't had to cut much material, so it's full of all the detail we so love from the book. Elizabeth and Darcy are fantastically vibrant portrayals, and it really feels like an adaptation should. It's been a favourite since I was 14, and it still is - in fact, I've just bought a new copy for my student house.
