Emma

Is anyone watching the BBC adaptation of Emma (Sunday nights) . It has been so well done previously on TV and in film I didn't think it could be bettered so I nearly didn't watch it .

This adaptation is a real treat, beautifully acted and it has capture the essence of Jane Austin with an easy to follow 'plot' . I am thoroughly enjoying it

..Jane Austin is quite predictable , though I would say her stories are not about the destination but how one gets there..
