Teaser Trailer For Funny and Charming BBC Series THE OTHER BENNET SISTER
BBC has released a teaser trailer for the charming series The Other Bennet Sister, based on the Bennet family within Jane Austen's iconic novel Pride and Prejudice. The cast in the series includes Ella Bruccoleri as Mary Bennet, with Ruth Jones as Mrs. Bennet, Richard E. Grant as Mr. Bennet, Indira Varma, Richard Coyle, Laurie Davidson, and Dónal Finn as Mr. Hayward.
The show was created and written by Sarah Quintrell, adapted from the 2020 novel of the same name by Janice Hadlow, based on the character Mary Bennet from the Jane Austen novel, with additional writing by Maddie Dai. All of the episodes are directed by Jennifer Sheridan (Rose, Extraordinary, Malpractice).
The synopsis reads:
“The first part of the series follows the events from Pride and Prejudice from Mary Bennet's point of view, before the story departs to follow Mary as she travels to London & the Lake District. The overlooked sister from the big Bennet family has a romantic adventure in Regency-era England.”
The Other Bennet Sister looks like an absolute delight, and I look forward to watching it. The show will be available to stream on BBC iPlayer on March 15th. Check out the teaser below:
