Of the various works written to bounce off Austen, for me the most fun was the four-part British TV series 'Lost in Austen'. It has some funny moments as both the modern Austen-lover and the Pride and Prejudice characters whose life she starts intruding in, have those mind-bender moments of past and present, cause and effect getting tangled together. The premise, 'set' characters showing what they are made of as they are forced into unplanned circumstances and made to bend, is actually just an extension of the theme of all of Austen's novels. The bending just goes a little further ! Jemima Rooper is fun as the conflicted yo-yo refugee from the twenty-first century.
