Fancying a rewatch of #BBC 1999 #TV version of #ElizabethGaskell Wives and Daughters. We haven’t seen it since it first aired but have the #DVD, which I just pulled out of a precariously tall DVD pile in our sitting room! Looking forward to it. I reread the original novel recently. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0215364/ #BritishTV #90sTV #VictorianLiterature #19thCenturyLiterature #NineteenthCenturyLiterature #Novels #CostumeDrama #WomenAuthors #FemaleAuthors #Books #19thCenturyNovels #VictorianNovels #Fiction

“Are you surprised at the knowledge of the law which this way of writing betrays in an ignorant woman? I have been learning, my dear: the Law and the Lady have begun understanding one another.”
