Ah, period dramas. The on-screen equivalent of a cup ... help Austen’s subtle wit and sharp social commentary on women and marriage truly shine – and that wet shirt scene remains iconic.

The BBC's new period drama Miss Austen is careful and considerate in its storytelling.

Period drama series based on John Galsworthy's novels. Fleur tells Soames she is in love with Jon. Irene opposes the marriage but says it rests with Jon.
