Lost in Austen

I have recently discovered the brilliant ITV adaptation of LOST IN AUSTEN. To quote the blurb:

Jemima Rooper stars as Amanda Price - the frustrated romantic who lives for reading and adores the characters in her Jane Austen books. Then one day she discovers a gateway in her flat and ends up being transported to her favourite world, the world of Pride and Prejudice. But is the “true” story in danger of being thrown off track by her presence?

And it works! The script is hilarious and they have pulled off both the period look and the modern touches.
