YouTube Premiere: Celebrating 30 years of Pride and Prejudice
Jane Austen's House and De Montfort University are delighted to present an exclusive YouTube Premiere of "Celebrating 30 years of Pride and Prejudice: Andrew Davies and Susie Conklin in conversation", filmed earlier this year in the Drawing Room at Jane Austen's House.
Andrew Davies, in conversation at Jane Austen’s House.
This delightful hour-long film reunites the legendary Screenwriter Andrew Davies with Script Editor Susie Conklin as they reminisce about the making of the beloved 1995 BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice.
Recorded in the beautiful and intimate surroundings of Jane Austen’s House, the film also includes leading cast-members Crispin Bonham-Carter and Susannah Harker who join the live audience and share their happy memories of the production. It is chaired by Justin Smith, Professor of Cinema and Television History at De Montfort University.
This talk was delivered in the Drawing Room at Jane Austen’s House in front of a small live audience but it was filmed especially for you, our online audience. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Leading cast-members Crispin-Bonham Carter and Susannah Harker join in the conversation, from the audience.
How to watch:
The film will be freely available to watch on our YouTube channel from 9pm BST on Wednesday 24 September – exactly 30 years after the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice first aired!
You can join fans around the world to watch the Premiere live, or watch whenever you like after that!
