This is essential viewing for any Pride and Prejudice fan. It’s clever and plays around with the original story.

Good fun. And I don't know why anyone would want to be transported back to that time, but I LOVED just the idea of it. Still think Colin Firth is the best Mr Darcy!

I bought the above DVD from England in Pal format. I have to say that the picture quality and color were just excellent. I saw this on WTTW Channel 11 Chicago and loved it. It is a different take on Pride and Prejudice with a modern twist. It was wonderful and only wish it was longer. I also have the NSTC version or Region 1 and found that the color wasn't quite as good or the packaging. This movie is highly recommended for all Jane Austen fans. There was everything one could want, humor, I can't believe this is happening to one of my favorite books,romance and will there be a happily everafter? Buy it and see.
I saw parts of this film/series on TV abroad in a foreign language, so I thought it would be great for me and my children to see it in English. (It might even give them the wish to read the original Austen book.) I enjoyed it immensely and decided to buy a second DVD for my sister. I haven't heard her opinion yet, but I'm sure she'll really enjoy it - she's a great Austen fan. For students of English abroad I think it must be very good to watch - some foreign students study Austen and tend to think that English people still speak that way... I would thoroughly recommend this DVD (there are 2 in the box - three hours running time) to foreign university teachers of English therefore. ...and it's also just very good fun.
I’ve watched this film 3 times now and love it. I’ll definitely be watching it again in due course.
