Miss Austen Regrets, a true story based on Jane Austen’s own letters and diaries, will be part of the four-month marathon.
“Once we sealed the deal on the four new Austen adaptations, we decided we had to complete the package with Emma and Pride and Prejudice,” says MASTERPIECE THEATRE executive producer Rebecca Eaton. “The biopic Miss Austen Regrets is the frosting on the cake: an intimate portrait of the remarkable woman behind these wonderful stories.”

Complete series, with a preview, here. I must say, I'm a bit dubious about Rose Tyler--I mean, Billie Piper--as Mansfield Park's Fanny Price.
All the new DVDs can be pre-ordered.
