Pride and Prejudice
Created by Fay Weldon
On BBC Two
A period romance miniseries centered on wit, social observation, and the gradual mutual recognition between two strong-willed characters navigating class and propriety in Regency England.
In early 19th century England, Mr and Mrs Bennet's five unmarried daughters vie for the affections of rich and eligible Mr Bingley and his status-conscious friend, Mr Darcy, who have moved into their neighbourhood. While Bingley takes an immediate liking to eldest daughter Jane, Darcy has difficulty adapting to local society and repeatedly clashes with second-eldest Elizabeth.
