This was on TV last Christmas here in the UK. I tuned in to the first episode purely because its P&P based and that is my favourite Jane Austen of all time! (The BBC miniseries is one of my favourite period drama adaptations of all time too!) Anywho, I don't think I even watched the whole of episode 1, it was just awful. I'm not much for the murder mystery type of a thing anyway, but the acting in this was awful, and I wasn't buying any of the actors and actresses as the characters they were supposed to be playing. My BFF actually liked it, but to this day I can't understand why. Awful, especially when compared to the quality of the Jennifer Ehle/Colin Firth miniseries of the original book.
