"The most important thing is to be yourself." BBC has unveiled their trailer for a fun comedy series called
The Other Bennet Sister, which will be streaming in the UK on BBC later this month. A romantic comedy about one of the other Bennet sisters in the big family from Jane Austen's iconic novel
Pride and Prejudice.
The Other Bennet Sister offers a fresh take on one of Austen's most unassuming characters: Mary Bennet. Forced to step out of her sisters' shadows, Mary embarks on a journey of self-discovery – finding love, and most importantly herself, along the way. Mary leaves her sisters' shadows to find herself, embarking on a journey from Meryton to London and the Lake District. Her quest for independence leads to an unexpected love story in Regency-era England. Starring
Ella Bruccoleri as Mary Bennet, with
Ruth Jones as Mrs Bennet,
Richard E. Grant as Mr Bennet,
Indira Varma,
Richard Coyle,
Laurie Davidson, &
Dónal Finn as Mr Hayward. It seems like a kooky, clever twist on the usual Jane Austen stories on screen. Enjoy. //
