Young Charlotte Heywood comes to stay and falls in love with Sanditon and the whole enterprise. He’s mortgaged his property to the hilt, borrowed from all and sundry, and now he’s transforming Sanditon before our very eyes. You could say it’s a bit like Boardwalk Empire: Tom Parker is trying to develop a sleepy fishing village into a fashionable seaside resort. Of course, she provides us with a spirited young heroine and a fascinatingly complex and moody hero, but the setting is new, and the Parker brothers embody a new kind of Jane Austen character: they are men of affairs, entrepreneurs, men who want to change the world they live in and leave their mark on it. As ITV's synopsis reads, the story unfolds "hen a chance accident transports her from her rural town of Willingden to the would-be coastal resort of the eponymous title, it exposes Charlotte to the intrigues and dalliances of a seaside town on the make, and the characters whose fortunes depend on its commercial success." "The twists and turns of the plot, which takes viewers from the West Indies to the rotting alleys of London, exposes the hidden agendas of each character and sees Charlotte discover herself and ultimately find love."Īs romantic as that sounds, the ambiguous ending leaves the series in a rather unique situation, as it will give fans of the author a chance to see how the novel could have concluded.In the last year of her life, Jane Austen embarked on a new novel, a bold departure from anything she had done before. What was written focuses on Charlotte Heywood (played by Rosie Williams) and her relationship with Sidney Parker (played by Theo James). What do I mean by that? Well, as Stylist notes, Austen began writing Sanditon (initially titled The Brothers) a few months before she passed away, leaving the book unfinished at 11 chapters. Although, fans of Austen and the novel may be wondering how the series will pan out, as the Sanditon book ending is actually non-existent.
25) on ITV, Austen's last work Sanditon will finally get the adaption treatment. Period dramas never seem to go out of style, especially when it comes to series based on the works of Jane Austen.
