Lost in Austen



Lost in Austen!





It's no secret that I completely adore the world of Austen and wish to part of that world, even if it for the tiniest of seconds. To stroll along Pemberly with Mr Darcy or to going with the Dashwoods on Sir John Middleton's estate. The world of Austen is just so magical that I wish to be a part of it. It's too good to miss out on!

So imagine my surprise when I accidentally stumbled across the Lost in Austen DVDs in my mother's dvd cupboard (I had asked as I was showing my friend Becky the Carry On films!) After Becky had gone home and I had, had a bath, I watched Lost in Austen for the first time. 

IT WAS AMAZING

It's about Amanda Price, a woman from modern London, who trades places with Elizabeth Bennett and  enters plot of the novel of Pride and Prejudice through a portal in her bathroom, to join the Bennet family and affect events disastrously.

I love it to bits because it's like massive fanfiction come to life on screen!

Plus it pretty much describes the realities of modern day people trying to fit into regency times, well it describes me at least!

It's so funny because Amanda Price is so definite to keep to the plot of the story that things go wrong because Elizabeth isn't there. 

It's my favourite TV series of all time and no matter what people say it always will be! It's definitely worth a watch or two ;)
