okayish
the dialogues gave away a lot of plot points that were almost wrong at times. For instance, in pride and prejudice, colonel Fitzwilliam gave away who it was that Darcy influenced away from marriage while in the book, Elizabeth's aunt said Darcy was engaged to Anne de bourg which is something Wickham tells Elizabeth, not her aunt. there are other such inconsistencies in the rest of the chapters. I guess its due to the dialogues instead of simply re-reading the book, but these things are incorrect which bugs me😂

Nice adaptations but different cast advertised
These adaptation are good but seems like the versions included here are not the ones reflected in the thumbnail; specifically, David Tennant and Benedict Cumberbatch do not feature on the cast for any of these plays at all. If you're looking for those specific performers, you will be disappointed. If you're looking only to enjoy Jane Austen in radio-drama form however, this is a good title.
