The Emmy- and BAFTA-winning Davies, 83, penned nearly all the major adaptations of classics in the past 30 years, including the 1995 “Pride and Prejudice” series starring Colin Firth the British “House of Cards,” (1990) “Bleak House” (2005) “Sense & Sensibility” (2008) “War & Peace” (2016) “Les Miserables” (2018) and now “Sanditon,” premiering Sunday at 9 p.m. How steamy Jane Austen show 'Sanditon' got un-cancelledĬompleting an iconic author’s unfinished story is a daunting task - so big-gun literary guru Andrew Davies was brought in to adapt Jane Austen’s “Sanditon” into a PBS series premiering Sunday night. ![]() 'Fire Island' review: Friends pine in the Pines in sweet rom-com ![]() 'Ted Lasso' star wants Miss Piggy to be his leading lady Jane Austen’s longtime UK home lists for $10.43M ![]()
