World Enough and Time

PBS will broadcast screen adaptations of all six of Jane Austen's novels on Masterpiece Theatre starting January 13.

Hooray!

They will show the BBC (Colin Firth) version of Pride and Prejudice

Hmm. Not my favourite, but it has its good points.

the Kate Beckinsale version of Emma

Yay! I've never seen this. And I shamelessly adore Kate Beckinsale.

the other adaptations are new.

And if Persuasion is among them, I am a happy camper.

They also will air an original program based on Austen's life.

Interesting!

Thanks for the tip. I will be prepared to tape starting Jan. 13.

Not that I really consider myself a Jane Austen fan, you understand. But... I guess not entirely a non-fan either.
