Jane Austen's gentle parody of gothic fiction - newly adapted by Andrew Davies for Masterpiece Classic - makes you privy to the coming-of-age adventures of romance-lover Catherine Moreland (Felicity Jones, Meadowlands). When Catherine accepts an invitation to visit fashionable Bath, everything seems just as she dreamed - elegant ballrooms filled with handsome men and beautiful ladies. But when the family of Henry Tilney (JJ Feild, Waking the Dead, Almost Strangers) invites her to stay at their medieval family home, Catherine begins to confuse her lurid fantasies with the reality of the mysterious place, and risks losing the affections of the man she has come to love.
