First, we have to point out a correction about the schedule of Jane Eyre. Citron_Vert reports in the
Jane Eyre imdb board the following information:
Information from the BBC Press Office last week indicated that episode 2 would be shown at 5.45pm on Sunday 1st October:
However, a search on RadioTimes.com suggests that this is a repeat of episode 1 and episode 2 will be at 9pm.
Episode 1 also appears to be repeated in the Sign Zone at 12.30am (Sunday night/Monday morning).
Brontëana has discovered the
BBC4 webpage for Wide Sargasso Sea. Nothing new (check
this post for cast information), but the pictures (:D) and a *provisional* airing date:
9 October 2006.
Set in lush 19th-century Jamaica, Wide Sargasso Sea tells the story of the relationship between a passionate Creole heiress, Antoinette (Rebecca Hall), and
a brooding Englishman, Edward Rochester (Rafe Spall). Adapted from Jean Rhys' award-winning novel, Wide Sargasso Sea is a prequel to Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre and paints a rather different story of Mr Rochester's first wife.
Born to a Creole mother, Rhys felt Bronte had misrepresented Creole women in her work. She wanted to show an alternative to the story of Bertha Mason, Mr Rochester's first spouse, and dispel the 'mad wife' image created by Brontë.
