The real Jane Austen 2-8

A BBC documentary produced in 2002 and directed by Nicky Patterson. The narrator Anne Chancellor is related to Jane Austen herself and played the part of Caroline Bingley in BBC' s "Pride and Prejudice" (1995).

This video was up until recently in user's "inmypooropinion" channel which was closed. The only reason I upload it is because it was a favorite with some people. But, as I recognize the effort and time to prepare a video, I felt that I should give my due to "inmypooropinion" and in case he/she creates a different channel and wants to use his/her videos again, he/she can notify me with a private message to withdraw it.

I feel like I could watch, read and listen to anything Jane Austen related and never need any other form of entertainment. :D

What was so "Romantic" about her ideals?

[sferb]

Dude, Jane Austen told dead baby jokes. Most people (the general public) have no idea how deeply, but darkly, funny Jane really was. She was a brilliant comedian and genius observer of human nature, who because of her gender and era, could only work with a very, very limited canvas. And yet, she produced works of art. Behind every cynic is an idealist, and the yin-yang of her personality is her abrasive comic style and her breathtakingly romantic ideals.
