Most galling, to me, was the final scene. The worst part was the rushed changes in the last two episodes. James Stringer is aghast at the loss of his father, and he recalls his angry last words with profound regret. You might so I do so long for joy that meretricious versions depress me. It was obvious well before the first episode finished that this series had nothing to do with Jane Austen. We discovered she had a secret love called Otis who was a good man but flawed because. Miss Lambe makes only two appearances. Im hoping the plan for Season 2 is that Georgiana will offer to lend the money for rebuilding Sanditon, provided the insurance is purchased this time, so that her friend Charlotte will have her love, in Sidney. I understand. Most of the time Austen qualifies her happy ending by ironies and other astringent comments or a downright melancholy possilibility in the future (Persuasion). It doesnt mean that Jane, ergo Charlotte, did not love or wasnt loved by men, but as in the movie Becoming Jane or Miss Austen Regrets, for one reason or another, none of her relationships with men led to marriage. That is what I call a good mini series. What about borrowing all or part of the money from Georgianna? Cant live without it. I would hope Clara comes back but if its again these seething melodramatic absurdities Id just as soon skip her doing more handjobs. He hies back to Sanditon several weeks after his departure, causing ulcers and sleepless nights for kith and kin. Miss Lambe ( Crystal Clarke) arrives in the seaside resort of Sanditon under the protection of Mrs Griffiths, a middle-aged white woman whose other "charges" include the English Miss. I felt like the endings of the story line were hurriedly done. She was an immature, inexperienced child. She couldnt care less about cards. In many cases if you married for love you were quite destined to be poor for all your life. Downton Abbey did such a great job of providing a completed story each season. Lets hope that the powers that be listen to their faithful and erudite fans. He's kind. There was a lot wrong with the ending, and not just lack of a happy ending. Miss Charlotte Heywood: of Willingden, Sussex. If there *is* a season 2, I will go into with lowered expectations for what this story should look/feel/sound/be like and Id try to actually enjoy it. Shes so delighted with the newsso pleased for himso gushingthat he must be disappointed with that overenthusiastic reaction. (There are 33 walks in P + P!). However, we do accept and keep books and CDs to review. Except for the first two episodes, the seaside resort was used primarily as backdrop for Toms crazy ideas. I was left speechless after the conclusion, with one question running through my head: What did I just watch? He was hoping for but was not assured a second season. And then it changed me. She was the only truly Jane Austen character in the whole series. Turlough Convery as Arthur Denham in "Sanditon" (Red Planet/PBS) Someone else who is taken in by Lockhart is Arthur Parker (Turlough Convery). As for my feelings about the final episode: Boooo, Andrew Davies!! She and Charlotte chatter like close girlfriends are wont to do, giggling and exchanging highly personal information. (And so super gorgeous!) Are you still proclaiming your independence? Click on image. Then Sidney is way laid by Tom. Charlotte and Sidney clash over Miss Lambe's love life, and Charlotte strikes up a new friendship. Sidney was most amiable by the end of episode 7 and in the finale he left me not wanting to invest any more time and energy in him and his relationship with Charlotte. Tensions surround Miss Lambe's arrival in Sanditon. Miss Lambe is a young lady-probably a niece-under Mrs. Griffiths' care, richer than all the rest, and very delicate health. At least hes gutsy enough to tell her in person of his actions. She's come with her farmer. I wish you every happiness, she says like an automaton. In both I find excellent casting/acting, authentic to the period, and a true Austen interpretation. You may think yourself the savior of Sanditon, but you have done so at the price of your character.. What did TOM do to rectify the situation he put himself in? Ugh. But why did the siblings not council Sidney who they all knew now loved Charlotte, No, dont go to Lady Campion. I dont understand why Lady Susan couldnt come to their aid after being such a dear friend to Charlotte and being so understandably critical of Lady Campions relationship with Sidney. So now Sidney has to win Charlotte back. Perhaps we should plan a simple country wedding. One good result that came from Davies productionIve ordered a copy of Sanditon and will read Austens original, albeit incomplete, text. Charlotte/Sidney is boring by comparison. Jane Austen characters are supposed to learn from each other and grow, so that by the end of the story the heroine and hero are made better by each other. I find the Outlander series vastly superior: why? The first 7 episodes of Sanditon made me believe Davies was treating his adaptation in the style and parameters of Austens other works. My plea to the powers that be is to think of your audience and order up at least one more episode to tie up loose ends and provide Charlotte with the logical ending she deserves. Does she just resent being forced to go where he makes her? Willoughby was not worthy of her. My first thought was that they definitely set up episode 8 for a second season. They are curious to find out what happens with Charlotte, Sidney, Miss Lambe but unfortunately cannot do anything but use their imaginations . I agree completely with these statements. Miss Lambe is described in Sanditon the novel as 'half mulatto,' and a wealthy heiress who may be sickly. He then confesses hes the same man. I did enjoy the Esther + Lord Babington storyline. In the final clip released, Sidney and Charlotte bid each other adieu as he sets. Whether I would bother to buy the DVD if there were a next time, Im not sure, but what we saw was fun. Sanditon (1817) is an unfinished novel by the English writer Jane Austen.In January 1817, Austen began work on a new novel she called The Brothers, later titled Sanditon, and completed eleven chapters before stopping work in mid-March 1817, probably because of illness.

So now Charlotte has lost both Sidney and James. I could go on and on but suffice it to say, it was the transformation of the character unfolding that was actually changing me. The ending by another lady is lovely. they will sometimesspend (really) 10 minutes on a interlude; they give time to dialogues to develop and we get real thought from the characters. The arrival of Miss Lambe's forbidden love causes Charlotte to question her opinion of Sidney. If you market a series as Austen then you know in advance how it is supposed end. As to Sydney, what a waste of an opportunity to create a kind of Tilney/Darcy hybrid that was gently suggested by his enticingly brief entrance in the novel. This ending left me so frustrated. Wouldnt it be splendid if, through her efforts with Tom Parker, Sanditon became a successful seaside resort? James Stringer takes this moment to ask Charlotte for a dance.

She basically calls him a wuss and says: You are the worlds worst carriage driver., Why not? As she drives the horses even faster we gain insight into their future relationship. I have only just happened upon this excellent recap of the series I watched just a couple of weeks ago and found wanting in many respects. She knocks on Mrs. Griffiths door to visit Georgiana and espies Sidney nearby talking to Tom. We just dont want to let go of the delightful, charming and exciting characters we have grown to love. I think: *WTDFJH? Ending of 'Sanditon'. I think we deserve at least one more episode to clear it all up. Sigh Our main protagonists and characters are assembled, beautifully dressed and ready to party, except for Georgiana, who confronts Sidney. We learn his name was Isaac. From the miserly and rich Lady Denham (Anne Reid), the Antiguan heiress Miss Lambe (Crystal Clarke), to social "brother and sister" schemers attempting to inherit the mean Lady Denham's money. I have both and love both! Isnt the first rule of Austen that after all the suffering comes a happy ending? Meanwhile thanks for the summaries and time to dissect this series. What a cheat! Notes and references I like the combination of Georgiana and Otis, there could be a lot more to come there, but of course with her considerable wealth do you want her to let a prolific gambler get his hands on her money without some serious vetting and real communication. The only reason for a man to ride pell-mell after his lover is to reclaim hernot to rub salt into her wounds. Davies and his writing team were writing against deadline, or so the story goes in the The World of Sanditon companion book. I just love all the love, loathing, apoplexic outbursts and all that high blood pressure and, so on and so forth, expressed about this series. I dint like the poorly designed set for the town of Sanditon. I cant believe it! Lady Susan certainly couldve ridden to the rescue, or perhaps Tom couldve groveled enough to make Lady Denham forgive him. For some reason, the elder Stringer, instead of attending the ball, works late by candlelight on a stepladder to complete the Crescent all by his lonesome. It was a real missed opportunity there and the writers did a poor job with her. He's so dreamy. No matter where she's from. I might not want another complete season, but one or two episodes would be nice. And remember, in the first episode, Charlotte actually said, I dont want to marry. Why should she? Anyway, thank you for the reviews!! I had taped the series and I think I must have watched the damn show about 200 times because I couldnt actually believe what was happening to me. :-) I just dont like having to guess thats where this was leading. At any rate, if youre going to touch our beloved Jane Austens work, PLEASE give it the respect it deserves and end it like Jane would. Okay, obviously there are things in Sanditon that are triggering me to figure something out so I can revisit events and then revision.my own life. End of discussion. Sidneys words turn Charlotte into a boneless mass of compliance. Once I let myself go in terms of recapping the Sanditon episodes, I had fun making sport with the more improbable situations. I would watch a second season if it primarily followed these characters (Lady Babbington navigates the London social scene?? Season 1. There are even more items that could be considered. There, she hobnobs with her hosts, the. Vic Sanborn, founder of this blog, is supported by a team of talented and knowledgeable writers about Jane Austen and the Regency era.

There are so many tantalizing threads to pick up on here, so many forks in roads and paths. Really, all that happens in the part Austen wrote was setting the story in motion by getting Charlotte to Sanditon and mentioning the coming of Miss Lambe the heiress, and introducing most of the characters. The neglected tombstone found in an overgrown burial ground. With Charlottes friendship with Susan I can see the prince regent investing in Sanditon, thus its prosperity, negating the necessity of Sidney sacrificing love. Vic, thanks for all the summaries and dissections.

Thank you for that reminder Kevin. As to the ending, i wouldnt have minded if she didnt end up with Sidney. Description. I agree. The night is dark and only candles light up the space when Old Stringer touches his chest, then his left arm. Many lives were tragically interfered with because of the rigid class system. It was the timesmarrying for money to better the familys situation or hold onto the land (Downton Abbey style). My other question is why give Lord and Lady Babbingtons story more focus than the main characters themselves? Lady Susan is the gluewhy was she even in the story if not to come to Charlottes rescue??? This was a normal TV soapie series, and that is why of course it couldnt end, but only leave you wondering what will happen next time. According to the official website of the PBS, they will be airing the eight episodes again this month. Still liked it, but feel it needs a good solid ending at the least. Such a loss!

She is from Antigua, and her father, before passing, left Mr Sidney Parker to be her legal guardian. Miss Lambe, for example. When the arrival of two eligible bachelors signals a potential change in status for the Bennet sisters, their marriage-minded mother is sent into a frenzy, and the lively, witty Elizabeth Bennet goes head-to-head with smoldering, haughty Mr. Darcy. This whole series was a waste of time, all due to the terrible ending. I am trying to move forward but Im kind of stuck, I hope Mr. Davies does something to wrap things up cause its really bugging me and I dont feel like its my story to tell but I LOVE these characters and he better fix it. Peoples ire has been stoked up and strong feelings abound. In that day and age a woman of means lost all her wealth if she was wed to an unscrupulous man. Her role was more as an observer. I believe we all saw what Sydney was forced to rescue her from. Charlotte needs a typical Austen ending! I feel weary even thinking about a second season because you know that Sydney and Charlotte wont be able to get together until the very end of the season. For what its worth, I was totally #TeamStringer. Is Theo James, the actor, though he tried his best, but hes no Mr. Darcy that way because of his acting chops or because of the script (Davies)? Several people have already made some plausible suggestions above. Davies went overboard in modernizing and sexing up Janes wonderful characters. Hello, my name is Vic and I live in Maryland, USA. Ending the whole series with Charlotte crying by herself in a carriage was inconsistent with her general character and just depressing when she could have stood up for herself.

One thing is for sure, fan fiction will give Charlotte the ending she deserves or that makes Austen sense. It was a nice change for the evil scheming woman to get a genuine redemption. THATS IT?! I gather Mr. Sidney Parker is engaged, he says. Sidney, you may think that a woman is there for you to use for pleasure or money, to play games with or exploit. Tom is so foolhardy how much will Sidneys rich wife give him before she realizes its just going to waste. Shortly afterwards, a maid brought them coffee and they were joined by Lord Babington, a friendly-looking man in his mid-thirties.

Im royally Pi-d! It is so rich in possibilities. Thank you, Mr. Stringer. Charlotte obviously has no desire to flirt with James or embark on a relationship with him. Jane would not have written it that way! Preparing a series 1 with only the *hopes* of there being money available to pay for a season 2 is much like the Parkers building a seaside town without any insurance or visitors. Loved the mini series but so disappointed work how it ended! Well, off you go, then.. I too am glad for Esther and Im glad Edward is ejected. I never was on Team Sidney, who displayed his jerk side way too often. It really does feel that way and I am glad to read that so many other people were so sad about it too. I agree that there are too many loose ends in the final episode. Im dissatisfied As you said this is what I invested my time in? Still quite a good series but not within Janes vision. The only way to redeem this is if we get a second season and then Davies might come up with some stupid twist the second time around. I didnt have the benefit of wine and cheese but my reaction to the final scene was identical to yours. Its everything hes ever dreamed of. Im just saying. His stupidity and naivet are revealed when Sidney uncovers his true crimenot investing in insurance to save a few quid. At Denham House, Clara witnesses a scene that raises her suspicions.

And poor Charlotte. We could emotionally chalk it up as a summer romance. Tensions between Tom and his laborers erupt during the Sanditon cricket match. Im assuming you are rooting for a season 2? I went into this looking at it as Austen inspired Davies drama with extremely low expectation and I still feel let down by the ending. It's revealed in the season 2 premiere that Sidney Parker died from yellow fever on a trip to Antigua after the events of the first season finale. Stringer would not have been invited to the ball, and even if he were, it was not true to his character that he would go. Hes a talented, hard-working earnest character, but I understand how these novels work. But especially I dislike happy endings unless I am made to believe in them. None of my friends watch Masterpiece and I have no one to share my grief with. Just let it drift over the horizon, and be done with it. He leaves his friend as soon as he sees Lady D and Esther enter the ball room, fashionably late as great ladies were wont to do. Yes, it has that feel, doesnt it? Perhaps, it was a nod to Austens real life where her status and rank in society did not offer her a good marriage in the end. His character should have and could have become so much better! What I didnt see mentioned was Arthurs obvious crush on Miss Lambe, and the curious way they kissed each others hands as they were pulled apart by his sister at the ball. I wonder what she's up to. The episode opens with our lovely Miss Charlotte walking on air through the one intersection of the Sanditon set that viewers have seen repeatedly.

I couldnt sleep last night just thinking of him., Georgiana is beside herself. I am in agreeance with the comments here; as they say, shared sorrow is half sorrow. However, in Sanditon they are both entertaining and hopeless to help, as Dr. Fuchs agrees. They would have enjoyed one another, treated each other kindly while she had her forbidden lover on the side and he did too. And Sidney ( after being rude and aggressive) all of a sudden is overly polite when he tells Charlotte that he is best when he is around her. I guess first impressions are real. Sidney rang the bell at the front door, which was opened by a silver-haired, smartly dressed butler, who led them through an immense marble hallway towards the palatial morning room. Like, really Charlotte, your good friend Georgiana comes home from a traumatic kidnapping and you go visit her like what, twice? . Where is the circulating library, which Austen mentions in her manuscript? ;-), Sorry for the duplicationmy computer is acting up. How could Tom have allowed it given his own feelings about love? I suppose the wedding will be episode one of season three followed by Sydney getting killed in a carriage accident the next day.

More than anything, I want to see some sort of resolution in her relationship with Sidney. It just felt last-minute & sloppy. 1903.

Lets look ahead to Autumn de Wildes Emma, rather frowned upon by the Wall Street Journals Joe Morgenstern.

Jane Austen smacking Davies about the headnow that would be worth watching! For me , it started with episode 7, when everything began to feel contrived. Ultimately, on the other hand, the decision to . Their happy ending would have made us feel complete! Meanwhile, Clara witnesses a private moment between Esther . (Charlotte is a better character in the book.). While there is not a definite comparison between the two characters , I am seeing a transformative experience for Sydney Parker in Sanditon. In Austens Sanditon fragment is wasnt clear that Charlotte was supposed to be the heroine. Tony, you encouraged me to watch the series for what it is. Thank you for your review, Christina. Now I want to see Pride and Prejudice and Pirates. i am praying there will be either a second set to this series or, at least a final tying up of so many loose strings. You arent (gag) in love with him!? Here is a look at the official description of each episode from Sanditon according to the official website of the PBS with its airing date and time. That is not so. And if Davies wasnt going to do it, then at least grant Charlotte the dignity of riding off into the sunset on her own, perhaps visibly gaining new confidence in herself as she goes. Her complexion glows. Well Miss Heywood? Later in the series, Georgiana gets kidnapped to be a man's wife because Otis had mentioned her when he had debts to pay, and after she is safetly back home she breaks it off with Otis because she can't trust him anymore. June 27, 2021. I must confess my happiness when Lord Babb and his Esther marry. I cancelled the DVR and now I can look forward to a Monday night for the first time in 7 weeks. Either the writers were setting the whole thing up for a second season, or they have no idea how to write a satisfying romance. No, noplease not another season. Their meeting stinks, in my humble opinion. The writers need to write a satisfactory ending. An unhappy, often angry woman with no real storyline and then she is rendered absolutely useless in the last episodes. We need another season to finish it off right! Really.
