Fun dramatisation but I prefer the book. Because I know it well I found myself a little annoyed in places about certain scenes being curtailed and even lines being incomplete (it changes the intention slightly)
Yes, necessary I guess, to squash a broad narrative into 1.5 hours! Nevertheless, it feels that the BBC showed due respect to Heyer in the script writing, the acting and the whole dramatisation. In truth I am happy to hear and read anything of Heyer!!
@pamtownshend5870 there are some quite good *complete* versions on audible - but important to read reviews (some narration is better than others). But Faro's Daughter isn't as good as I remembered it being when I was younger, so I wasn't going to pay extra to hear it
Love Georgette Heyer!
Love this gem ! No one does these better than bbc !
Adorable!❤
Fun book. Glad to find dramatization. Prefer this kind of Heyer book.
