• Sanditon (TV series) adapted by Andrew Davies and shown on ITV from 25 August 2019. Sanditon (1817) is an unfinished novel by the English writer Jane Austen. In January 1817, Austen began work on a new novel she called The Brothers, later titled Sanditon upon its first publication in 1925, and completed eleven chapters before stopping work in mid-March 1817, probably because her illness prevented her from continuing.[1]

The Guardian:It is a truth recently acknowledged that Andrew Davies, grandfather of the sexed-up British period drama, used all the existing material from Jane Austen’s final novel in the first half hour of his adaptation of Sanditon (ITV). This – the one most of us haven’t read, and which has never before been adapted for the screen – is the fragment Austen abandoned unfinished in March 1817. She died four months later, leaving behind 11 chapters of a strange fiction about encroaching modernity in the industrial age and, more specifically, a seaside resort on the Sussex coast.

Every box is ticked off to great satisfaction or dull predictability depending on where you stand on the period drama tolerance scale. The top-notch ensemble cast including Anne Reid as Lady Denham, the curmudgeonly grande dame presiding over a fortune that her relatives are desperate to get their hands on. The stunning locations, all craggy clifftops and Regency elegance, and similarly chiselled and reserved hero. The problem is, in an era of period dramas with extraordinarily high production values such as The Crown, or exquisitely written and envelope-pushing ones such as Gentleman Jack, Sanditon looks a little tired and conventional.
