My favourite 80s movie. Watching this makes me feel small again, surrounded by more of Jim Henson's fantastical puppets in a world of goblins and magic - Bowie plays an excellent Goblin King.

I love period dramas and I love Austen. A tale of enduring love, this ITV version is not as true to the book as the BBC but I love the musical score and find it more powerful.

The BBC at its best - I love this version of Austen's novel. 327 minutes of sumptuous, indulgent period drama, and THAT wet shirt scene.
