The Complete Jane Austen

My enthusiasm for Jane Austen knows no bounds. So when I learned about the upcoming TV series from Teresa at Plumwater Cottage, I just couldn't resist posting about it.


from Molland’s (see Resources below)

This Sunday marks the beginning of PBS’ Masterpiece homage to Jane Austen—The Complete Jane Austen, a series that will carry us through the beginning of April. This will be such a lovely accompaniment to my bandage knitting efforts on Sunday nights.



I’ve made a printable schedule (click to enlarge and print) for you. I printed mine on magnetic paper and posted it on my refrigerator. Check your local listings for times.


Originally a cover for Pride and Prejudice, I’ve modified the photo to make the schedule

Which Jane Austen Character Are You?



My result:

You are Eliza Bennett from Pride and Prejudice! Yay, you! Perhaps the brightest and best character in all of English literature, you are intelligent, lively, lovely-- in short, you are the best of company. Your only foibles are that you stick with your first impressions... and your family is quite intolerable.
