Informed minds want to know. 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. More fool she. How could Sidney have done this? We need another season to finish it off right! Chapter Text. While disappointed overall in the show did enjoy your comments! It was obvious well before the first episode finished that this series had nothing to do with Jane Austen. Warning: SPOILERS for Sanditon Season 2, Episode 4. Like they were written as they went along! I like heartbreaking stories and despite Austen always giving her stories happy endings, this wasnt an Austen story because she never finished it. Here's everything you know about plot, cast, director, filming location and more! Sanditon Season 2 hit the ground running quickly enough that fans might not really have the time to linger too much on Sidney's absence, and a lot of that has to do with the new characters. This is not how Jane would have ended things. Charlotte . I agree that there are too many loose ends in the final episode. I like the combination of Sydney and Charlotte and as an interesting and unexpected love growing for him and for her, it is rather a shock for him because I think its something he has never experienced before- lets face it Mrs. Eliza Campion is simply incapable of making him feel and think like this and drawing out his real self. (Thanks, Robert Rodi for the title, which I borrowed from your book.). An unhappy, often angry woman with no real storyline and then she is rendered absolutely useless in the last episodes. Many lives were tragically interfered with because of the rigid class system. And as written it seems Charlotte may after all marry Mr Stringer as Esther has married Babington and maybe Sidney will marry Eliza all pragmatic. The WHOLE WORLD wants to come to Sanditon (a slight exaggeration) just in time for the Midsummers Ball. Her 75-page unfinished manuscript described Charlotte as an observer. Really. But Charlotte was no Lizzie Bennet she wasnt even Marianne Dashwood. They could have had a lovely life together. And also a working brain. Just a couple of comments for the moment. However, we do accept and keep books and CDs to review. Either follow the established format (paying tribute to Austens world) or go bonkers and add some zombies at the beginning of the series so we understand were in an altered dimension. Violins violin. I quite agree with you Dcupton poor Mr Davies is deluding himself. Although a happy ending is not necessary, there are several loose ends. We agree on so many points. They finally meet and greet. I never was on Team Sidney, who displayed his jerk side way too often. Charlotte sets out to avoid Sidney, until a serious accident forces them together . If the marriage did go forward I can see Mrs. Campion dying in childbirth, opening the way for Charlotte and Sidney, but who would want him after their heart being destroyed. Even though parts of Sanditon didn't entirely feel like Jane Austen herself, it was wholly entertaining novel and very delightful to be back in an Austen inspired world. Hurray for the REAL men after all the boring buffoons in fancy dress! Andrew Davies, you did us wrong! They are curious to find out what happens with Charlotte, Sidney, Miss Lambe but unfortunately cannot do anything but use their imaginations . Well know soon enough. Hah! Tensions between Tom and his laborers erupt during the Sanditon cricket match. Write the powers that be. I didnt have the benefit of wine and cheese but my reaction to the final scene was identical to yours. Ill be back in a week.. Sorry about the duplication my computer is acting up. I felt so betrayed by this final episode and turned right to you for commiseration. After Lord Babbs weddng to Esther, Lady D turns to Charlotte. If Jane Austen had moments of regret they only motivated her to give her heroines the ending they deserved and we, her devoted readers continue to applaud! None of my friends watch Masterpiece and I have no one to share my grief with. Her complexion glows. It wasnt his fault that the plot went nowhere and the characters were untrue to Austen. Tensions surrounding Miss Lambe's arrival in Sanditon erupt at Lady Denham's grand pineapple luncheon. Notes and references Surely you jest..that is not a ending.Jane would be horrified. The first in a painting class to demonstrate her rebelliousness, and the other in a scene with Sidney to show her contrition for bad behavior. Tidy up all those loose ends? This is also not Poldark, where the marriage is the focal point rather than the culmination. Why was this disaster HIS full burden to bear? The characters were spot on, however, I am left wanting for a true Jane Austen ending. There were some happy endings but really they were not necessarily the norm. Loved the usual Austen story. Changing alongside it is the impulsive and unconventional Charlotte Heywood, who swaps her quiet rural . And then it changed me. It would make him feel real. You might so I do so long for joy that meretricious versions depress me. At this point Ive eaten all my crackers and cheese, texted my Janeite friends with my observances, and poured another glass of an outstanding 94-point Fox in the Hen House wine. 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. In your comments you write independentcourted by men which is fully understood by women of the 21st Century. 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. We all know the story is incomplete We will never know for certain how Jane Austen would have developed the character of Sanditon 's Miss Lambe, who nonetheless attracts critical attention as Austen's only character of color. I also was really bothered that all the other Parkers let Sidney take all the weight of the financial burden. Thats it? Ultimately, on the other hand, the decision to . Charlotte and Sidney started a typical enemies to lovers situation that eventually imploded after Sanditon burned down; because Tom neglected to get insurance, Sidney was forced to marry his wealthy widowed ex to save the day. Sidney and Tom would not have included have listened to, not included her in their financial discussions, she wouldnt have been able to visit Stringers home (many times!) He clearly would like to marry but feels himself inadequate. Agree, let it die! Arthur interrupts to ask Miss Lambe to dance. I might not want another complete season, but one or two episodes would be nice. Lord Babb talks to Sidney as they eye the dancers. I dont think Davies can get Sidney out of this hole he created. She knocks on Mrs. Griffiths door to visit Georgiana and espies Sidney nearby talking to Tom. We do deserve one more episode. What are you up to with Charlotte? It turns out, he has saved them allexcept for he, himself and Charlotte. I love rich, huggy-bear types who adore their headstrong women. Couldnt Young Stringer (hunky, intelligent, loyal, hardworking and consistent) and Charlotte have found some happiness together? I watched 8 hours for this ending? Very disappointing. Like you, I found the death of Stringer Senior contrived, but it did not endear the young man to me. Just let it drift over the horizon, and be done with it. Now, those are plot lines worth taking in. without a chaperone. Part of their misunderstandings revolve around Miss Georgiana Lambe (Crystal Clarke), the 17-year-old mixed-race heiress from the West Indies who just happens to also be Sidney's ward. Esthers bored and pays scant attention to the game, which prompts Lady D to complain, You are playing like a nincompoop. If you thought that ending would make viewers happy, you deserve a smack in the head from Jane Austen. I kept waiting for the scene where Mary (who knew how Charlotte & Sidney felt, even if totally oblivious Tom didnt see it) dressed Tom down, insisting that he find the money elsewhere and, oh yeah, TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for his actions for once. I envision Charlotte choosing Austens path of remaining independent. I wouldnt mind if it came back but would be very unhappy if Charlotte did not marry Stringer. I reach for crackers with sharp New Zealand cheddar cheese and a fine red Australian wine and watch Lady D and Esther playing cards. Sanditon will come to an end with its third and final season next month as the PBS fan-favorite series eyes its return date. If we were able to see Sidney take a step back and truly suffer through this decision perhaps coming to terms with his life-long self-inflicted agonies and habit of denying himself happiness and/or chasing the wrong things and/or always being the responsible one in the family, etc. There is no urgency to her dressmaking, she says. And Austen addict that I am, I actually read Sanditon years ago and always thought the premise was intriguing.The 11-chapter scrap of a novel is set in Sanditon, a seaside town being . If you arent sending Sidney after the carriage to announce that hes shed Mrs. Campion & only wants Charlotte for his bride, DONT SEND HIM AT ALL!! Sanditon is back! His attitude towards us is disrespectful. Charlotte and Sidney continue to clash, resulting in Miss Lambe being placed in terrible danger. Sentimentality such as in the scene between Tom and his wife and then Sidney and Charlotte on the cliff grates on me by its untruthfulness. I am mostly sad that Georgiana was dropped from the storyline completely and had no ending. None of the other characters grew in any noticeable way. I go over it again and again and again and have awakened many times with new scenarios for the second season. Miss Lamb? Esther feigns boredom, but Lord Babb urges the horses on. Well, off you go, then.. I loved loved loved this seriesbut I am mortified with the ending. Thanks so much. Is there no hope? Episode 6. With Charlottes friendship with Susan I can see the prince regent investing in Sanditon, thus its prosperity, negating the necessity of Sidney sacrificing love. Do you think they wanted the ending to be like the movie about Jane Austen where she ran away with the man she loved, only to find out he had to marry for money because of taking care of his family? Set in 1820, Sanditon season 2 sees Charlotte Heywood (Rose Williams) return to the seaside resort town on the southern coast of England with her younger sister Alison (Rosie Graham) in tow. . At the beginning of the finale, there appears to be a clear path to happiness for our heroine as a marriage proposal from Sidney (Theo James) to Charlotte (Rose Williams) seems imminent. Worse, how could he face his Mary? In ancient Greek theatre, this DEM device came in the form of an angel or god of sorts lowered onto a stage who would save the protagonists. No, noplease not another season. Charlotte writes a letter to her sister saying that its been weeks since Sidney left in an attempt to save Sanditonand so the plot goes on. Ralph is a farmer in Willingdon that Charlotte's father insisted she marry. I like the combination of Sydney and Charlotte and as an interesting and unexpected love growing for him and for her, it is rather a shock for him because I think its something he has never experienced before- lets face it Mrs. Eliza Campion is simply incapable of making him feel and think like this and drawing out his real self.. The scene segues to Georgianas bedroom. Theo James, who portrayed Sidney on PBS' Sanditon, has announced he's exiting the series following the UK period drama's surprise two-season renewal. Davies needs a while other season to wrap up these loose ends. Ugh, when it ended I was left staring at the tv searching for the TV guide. In addition, we thank the many experts and authors who frequently contribute their posts and opinions, and who continue to do so freely or at our request. I wouldnt mind if the series ended there its more probable. No. But Im commenting because I wanted to say thank you for the excellent blog posts along the way; I enjoyed them more than the series! Sanditon is a sleepy tale based in a seaside village. This is not looking good. Jen, I have often wondered if Jane saw Charlottes fate similar to hersas an independent spinster, courted by men, but with no desire to marry. They could all go off to the Continent in time for Waterloo Im sure Mr Davies would have much more fun ripping off Thackeray than Austen. Inquiring readers: This is a long recap. I agree with Polly above about asking Miss Lambe for the money, but since she resents Sidney, she probably wouldnt have given it. I have loved reading your perspectives. Charlotte says without inflection, I dont think badly of you., He then says, I dont love her, you know Im just fulfilling my side of the bargain., This is the UNFAIREST cut of them all. Sanditon's a place that's changing fast. Sigh I had hopes for this one, but then the news came out of Great Britain last fall and my hopes were dashed. We could emotionally chalk it up as a summer romance. Whatever happened to the Heywoods or Lady Susan, or were they meant to make an appearance in Season 2, which will not be funded? 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. We do not accept any form of cash advertising, sponsorship, or paid topic insertions. Literally finished watching season one and instantly hunted down the petition to beg for season 2. It would have made a perfect, mutually beneficial marriage of convenience if they had married. Thank you, Mr. Stringer. Charlotte obviously has no desire to flirt with James or embark on a relationship with him. Sanditon introduces a delicious cast of supporting characters, including Miss Georgiana Lambe (Crystal Clarke), the first significant person of color in an Austen work, and Miss Lambe's. I also was pleased that Esther seems to have found some sort of happiness. But what happens after the Jane Austen plot runs out? The music climaxes in volume. A week ago I didnt know it existed, I am thrilled youre doing it, cant wait to see your take on the new Emma. Good points all. But I contradict myself when I add that Sidney is sadly unique as portrayed by Davies. 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. Charlotte needs a typical Austen ending! Now all he has to do is tell his Da. Austen fans are likely quite familiar with Sense and Sensibility, Emma and Pride and Prejudice, but many may not. Tom, who was riding high a few hours ago with visions of profits dancing in his head, is utterly destroyed financially. James revealed the news Friday on social . :). Shes not half the woman you areif he doesnt see that he doesnt deserve you.. What exactly he was doing abroad is a mystery to his family, though they're determined to find out. And would-be adaptors of her stories today should either honor her intentions (clearly shown by her finished works, her letters, and oft-quoted let other pens dwell on guilt and misery) or just leave Jane out of it and write their own story. I wonder what she's up to. Love your analysis that wine must have been good. If you would like to share a new site, or point out an error, please email us. Charlotte is, understandably, in a period of mourning so that the audience can commiserate. Thank you, Vic. This Sanditon pirate/director used the Jane Austen platform (or should I say plank) to walk these characters off the edge into Davy Jones locker. As I feel that at no point did the writers make me truly believe in Georgiana or Otis, I dont know what I want for her. The horses increase their speed, their manes and tails flying in the wind. And making her nice! This is NOT Jane Austen! If that had not happened would Lady D have even had a reason to survive to the next episode? Ruins. Please believe me there was no other way to resolve Toms situation. If we had a season two to look forward I really do think wed get something happy out of it but we will never know. Ha! R.W.

MASTERPIECE Sanditon Episode Four Sunday, January 26, 2020; 9:00 - 10:00pm ET Lord Babington courts Esther, who prefers Edward. 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. "Do we have a rebel in our midst, Captain Fraser?". You achieved tongue in cheek and also very Jane-like in humor. He gave only surface treatment to the serious topic of hypochondria that Austen had set up with three of the five Parker siblings, and eliminated Susan altogether, while introducing characters not mentioned or hinted at by Austen. Im just saying. While there is not a definite comparison between the two characters , I am seeing a transformative experience for Sydney Parker in Sanditon. (Charlotte is a better character in the book.). So disappointed in the ending. No matter where she's from. I agree that the Sidney character as written by the Davies team comes nowhere near Austens heroes, because, as you say, he is written with a lack of wit. Isnt the first rule of Austen that after all the suffering comes a happy ending? 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. They were trying to tie everything up at the last minute. ), Personally, I will stick to the Sanditon ending as written by Another Lady. Its not perfectly Austen either, but it is a good deal better than this! Well Miss Heywood? How are your wedding preparations? she asks, her face immobile, as if injected by botox. Sidney is the Willowby character from Sense and Sensibilities. 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. Lady D is called away, before he can formulate an answer. I liked the series but loved the last two episodes. I so enjoy this platform, Vic, that you offer to the sisterhood and brotherhood of Janites to express themselves. Jane would not have written it that way! Lets hope that the powers that be listen to their faithful and erudite fans. Ugh. Demand that final episode everyone. Anyway, I am disappointed that Charlotte didnt get her man. (#1 goes to the London ball, and #3 to the assembly ball at the beginning of the series.) At least hes gutsy enough to tell her in person of his actions.

And so, Sidney says, What a brute I was., Charlotte, who, once upon a time was a feisty opinionated woman, says, I deserved it.. Perhaps Charlotte, having gone home is being invited by her new friend, Susan, and taken in as her ward, or Susan hears of the Parkers demise and helps them, rendering Sidneys impending marriage gone. As to the ending, i wouldnt have minded if she didnt end up with Sidney. Good mini series requires only good costuming and setting. The next thing we know, someone yells, Fire! Poor Mr. Stringer is toast. He does not deserve being all right. I have adored Jane Austen almost all of my life. Let's watch the announcement of the series Sanditon Season 2 Episode 5. 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.

Charlotte and Miss Lambe hatch a secret plan sure to draw ire from Sanditon's residents. Like, really Charlotte, your good friend Georgiana comes home from a traumatic kidnapping and you go visit her like what, twice? She must grow up in order to become an interesting woman. And quite uncharacteristic of Lady Denham. Esther and Edward realize that Clara poses a significant threat to their ambitions.

I did love all the long walks on the beach, cliffs and hillsvery Austen. There are so many tantalizing threads to pick up on here, so many forks in roads and paths. Willoughby is said to be a man resembling the hero of a favourite story', just as Sidney is handsome and sexy. I completely agree that there should have been more Tilney in Sidney. I guess were lucky S&C didnt run away like Lydia and Wickham to ruin the family even more. Miss Lambe is described in Sanditon the novel as 'half mulatto,' and a wealthy heiress who may be sickly. It just felt last-minute & sloppy. Charlotte visits James Stringer. These are not characters Jane would have written. Thank you for the patience for going through this. I believe we all saw what Sydney was forced to rescue her from. But he is not attracted. (Which, I must confess, I thoroughly enjoyedwhile I think the writers did VERY wrong in their resolution, Theo James & Rose Williams have very good chemistry.). Lady Denham, the very rich, very acid-tongued dowager of Sanditon House, obtains it from a hothouse to serve as a centerpiece of a luncheon she is throwing in honor of Georgiana Lambe, an even . One good result that came from Davies productionIve ordered a copy of Sanditon and will read Austens original, albeit incomplete, text.

So when Andrew Davies, who wrote the Pride and Prejudice that gave us wet Colin Firth, announced he was making a series based on Austen's unfinished novel Sanditon, I was thrilled.Finally, a new Austen story! The unfinished novel continues to provoke speculation about the writer's intentions, particularly regarding Miss Lambe's importance in our ongoing consideration of racial and colonial themes in . Reaching episode 8 I was in shock that Davies switched the DNA of what we know to be a Jane Austen novel with traditional endings based on the character development presented. This isnt Jane Austen, although some of the characters were likeable. (sigh, hopeful,) I spend way too much time trying to figure things out, much of that having to do my own healing and restructuring my own understanding of events so that I can facilitate a new vision for myself to move forward.

In fact, she anticipates a happy future with her Lord, who unleashed emotions in her and feelings of pleasure that Sir Ed would never have liberated. Charlotte/Sidney is boring by comparison.

Die-hard Jane Austen fan, always go out of my way to watch any and every film/tv adaptation humanity makes of her work.

She is from Antigua, and her father, before passing, left Mr Sidney Parker to be her legal guardian. Sidney quickly answers, Shed be delighted.. He's so dreamy. 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. My other question is why give Lord and Lady Babbingtons story more focus than the main characters themselves? Have any of these characters learned anything? Well, clearly, we move onto Charlotte Bront. The worker men would nit have been allowed in the gentlemans rowing contest. Stupid.

Following which, Sidney breaks upon Charlotte that he has plans to honour his word and has to get married to Eliza Campion. The final crunch, sacrificing personal happiness for the sake of his brother, was a bit far-fetched, but I thought it showed him to be a better person than many of your readers seem to think, but that is why I think I commented earlier that I am now awaiting Further Adventures of Charlotte, because as in all good soapies, we were left expecting a great deal more there is no ending; it just stops, and you well, at least I we were left wondering what will happen next.
