I am a HUGE fan of the 1985 version of Pride and Prejudice. So I went into this with a bit of trepidation.
Look past the diversity of colours when it comes to the actors and ignore them and you have a show that very well done. We should all look past the colour of skin anyway, the world would be a better place if everyone did, so there is a lesson in the casting of this show right there.
Putting all that aside the show is very well done, so much so that I binge watched it in one setting, not once but twice. The third time I took a more leisurely pace with my other half.
Pride and Prejudice it is not, but it is close enough that I will be watching it many more times in the future and look forward to another season.
An easy 8/10 and well worth multiple viewings.
