DEATH COMES TO PEMBERLEY
A coach races up to a country house with a hysterical passenger shrieking, “Murder!” What better way to continue Jane Austen’s immortal novel "Pride and Prejudice?" This delicious homage to Austen, adapted from P.D. James’ clever whodunit, stars Anna Maxwell Martin (THE BLETCHLEY CIRCLE), Matthew Rhys (THE AMERICANS), Matthew Goode (THE GOOD WIFE) and Jenna Coleman (DOCTOR WHO). Elizabeth and Darcy never knew marriage would be like this!
Episode One airs Sunday, October 26 at 9 p.m. - Six years after the end of "Pride and Prejudice," Elizabeth and Darcy plan a ball—with fatal consequences. A family enemy takes charge of the case.
Episode Two airs Sunday, November 2 at 9 p.m. - A suspect goes on trial for his life, while Elizabeth pursues the real truth behind a mysterious death. The future of Darcy's sister Georgiana also hangs in the balance.
