Today I got a kind invite to attend at the pretty new WGBH headquarters in Brighton next to New Balance headquarters for a luncheon/afternoon tea introducing the lineup of the "COMPLETE JANE AUSTEN" presentation for 9 Sundays in 2008 starting January 13, 2007 at 9pm EST. I cannot wait! This whole week was a road show tour for the people in charge.
It was a fabulous time and event on a lovely fall day!

Coming: The Complete Jane Austen (pbs.org)
Looking ahead into 2008, Masterpiece suggests you flag January 13th in your datebook. That's when "The Complete Jane Austen" begins airing on Sunday nights, with new presentations of Persuasion, Northanger Abbey, Mansfield Park and Sense and Sensibility. The lineup also includes Emma, the acclaimed film starring Kate Beckinsale, and Pride and Prejudice*, the Emmy award-winning miniseries that made Colin Firth a heartthrob. Miss Austen Regrets, a true story based on Jane Austen's own letters and diaries, will also be a part of the four-month marathon.
*A production of BBC Television and BBC Worldwide Americas, Inc. in association with A&E Networks. Masterpiece Theatre's broadcast of Pride and Prejudice is the first in the U.S. other than on A&E Television Networks.
