My favourite period drama

	Jane Eyre (BBC) [2007] [DVD] [2006] Buy new: £5.48 / Used from: £5.20 The best movie version of Charlotte Bronte's masterpiece. Toby Stephens and Ruth Wilson have amazing chemistry and give outstanding performances together and apart.
	Young Victoria [DVD] [2009] Buy new: £5.98 / Used from: £4.49 Enchanting, amazing movie with outstanding performances by the two leads. Emily Blunt and Rupert Friend are really wonderful and sweet and human.
	Persuasion : Complete BBC Adaptation [1995] [DVD] Buy new: £8.97 / Used from: £4.85 The first period drama I watched. I'm still s much in love with it as I was ten years ago. A real classic.
	Emma [DVD] [1996] Buy new: £3.78 / Used from: £2.50 Enchanting movie. It puts a smile on my face every time I watch it.
	Pride & Prejudice - 2005 [DVD] Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £1.49 I'm one of the few who prefer this version at the Colin Firth one. Less faithful, maybe, but with more heart.
	Pride And Prejudice - Special Edition [DVD] [1995] Buy new: £8.88 / Used from: £6.59 A classic, very faithful to the book, and with legendary performances from Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle.
	A Room With A View (Special Edition) [DVD] [1985] Buy new: £6.28 Beautiful movie from a beautiful novel. Tuscany was never as enchanting.
	Persuasion : Complete ITV Adaptation [2007] [DVD] Buy new: £3.98 / Used from: £5.00 A good interpretation of the book, more in tune with the modern sensibility.
	North And South : Complete BBC Series [DVD] Buy new: £5.48 / Used from: £2.99 Great scenery, costume, music. Richard Armitage was amazing and carried the whole series, but Daniela Denby-Ashe was a bit too much emotionless for my liking
	Sense And Sensibility (Collector's Edition) [1996] [DVD] Buy new: £3.97 / Used from: £2.24 I love Emma Thompson in everything she does, but here she's at her best. Kate Winslet is also amazing. Their performances are really heartbreaking.
