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. The fragment that exists introduces us to Charlotte Heywood, a young woman who is whisked away from her family's farm to the seaside resort of Sanditon. The current ending is too reminiscent of Mariannes situation with Willoughby in Sense and Sensibility. I *loved* that Arthur stepped up to offer his inheritance. Whoa, whoa, says the coachman, prompting Charlotte to peer out the window. What is Georgiana Lambe's secret? 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. Frightfully decent of them. The characters were spot on, however, I am left wanting for a true Jane Austen ending. She's come with her farmer. Her complexion glows. Miss Lambe is a seventeen-year-old girl brought to Sanditon by Mrs. Griffiths, along with two Miss Beauforts. If you market a series as Austen then you know in advance how it is supposed end. Following which, Sidney breaks upon Charlotte that he has plans to honour his word and has to get married to Eliza Campion. He clearly would like to marry but feels himself inadequate. I enjoy reading your comments through the years on this blog. Ha! ? I did not know that a 2nd season might be in the works, so I thought that really was the end. She and Charlotte chatter like close girlfriends are wont to do, giggling and exchanging highly personal information. Sanditon's a place that's changing fast. Vic dislikes a few things I liked very much or doesnt mention them. None of my friends watch Masterpiece and I have no one to share my grief with. For the first time in many episodes, Miss Lambe is dressed in a lovely gown. This is not an ending, this is not Jane, this is STUPID! 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. At that moment, Lord Babbington is announced and he enters smiling and smug, and asks Esther to accompany him for a ride. You made me laugh out loud with your Janewould have hired a hit man to take out Andrew Davies. LOL, Despicable ending!! Please us all with the follow on, not forgetting the present cast which were all so well chosen. We may receive books (physical or digitized) and DVDs for review purposes. 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. I plan to follow up this mini-series with this book. I do love all her work but it is the depth of her characters here that are vibrant and compelling. Miss Lambe is a young lady-probably a niece-under Mrs. Griffiths' care, richer than all the rest, and very delicate health. Wouldnt she at that point be as sharp-tongued as she was in her first balcony scene with him? Charlottes heart beats as fast as mine. Anyway, I am disappointed that Charlotte didnt get her man. One thing I enjoyed very much indeed about the series was the development of Esther Denham from a straightforwardly unpleasant young woman to one who has been abused and misused into thinking herself worthless, and who is with great difficulty persuaded to accept love, and also the development of Babbington from a frippery young man determined to tame a recalcitrant filly into a tender, kind and sincere lover. Esther resists, saying she cant play or sing. 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 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. Turlough Convery as Arthur Denham in "Sanditon" (Red Planet/PBS) Someone else who is taken in by Lockhart is Arthur Parker (Turlough Convery). It would have made a perfect, mutually beneficial marriage of convenience if they had married. I LOVE Sanditon. Although Arthur reaches out to Miss Lambe as a friend, for which we all admire him for, he does confess to Diana he will never marry. I watched 8 hours for this ending? What a cheat! The opening sequence reveals that Sidney has died of yellow fever while in Antigua. He's kind. I wouldnt mind if it came back but would be very unhappy if Charlotte did not marry Stringer. 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. And what of Sir Edward Denham and Lady D's fortune?" There's also a strong sense that ITV is trying to set us up for more. I love it when Story B makes it to the A list and emerges front and center. Whatever happened to the Heywoods or Lady Susan, or were they meant to make an appearance in Season 2, which will not be funded? Scant resources existed in the early 19th century to fight fires in buildings made largely of wood, and the structure is swiftly destroyed. And also a working brain. The P&P-like turning point that Davies was playing for didnt quite work for me. Shortly afterwards, a maid brought them coffee and they were joined by Lord Babington, a friendly-looking man in his mid-thirties. Lady Susan is the gluewhy was she even in the story if not to come to Charlottes rescue??? As the town's cast of characters congregate in church the morning after the ball, the priest preaches about the "blooming" young women of Sanditon and how they will eventually be plucked. Oh wait, I am mistaken, that is not a good mini series, that is the best! Ugh, when it ended I was left staring at the tv searching for the TV guide. There is no way a trademan, however talented, would have been invited to a ball in that company. Although a happy ending is not necessary, there are several loose ends. And personally, I was rooting for Charlotte to chose James Stringer, and thought after Sulky Sid threw her over that she would. How old is Charlotte Heywood in Sanditon? Please, please, please, bring back the show! Miss Lambe's story is totally unresolved. Jane Austen would have never written such an ending. What are you up to with Charlotte? Even if Sidney had said, I must do this for us the ultimate sacrifice, at least it would have shown that the family was aware and cared about what it would mean for him. I dont really understand all the outrage. I agree completely with these statements. In the next scene we see Esther and Lord Babb sitting side by side in a curricle (a dandys vehicle, much like todays ultra sleek sports car for the uber rich). Help! My guess is that a number of fan fiction sequels will be written to give Charlotte the ending she deserves. Disclaimer: Our team makes no profit from this blog. (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.). And poor Charlotte. Willoughby is said to be a man resembling the hero of a favourite story', just as Sidney is handsome and sexy. Recall that he trotted out Otis to say goodbye to you. Your comments and suggestions are most welcome. We must have the Charlotte with Sidney eventuality. Also Read | 'The Wilds' Season 2 Release . I like heartbreaking stories and despite Austen always giving her stories happy endings, this wasnt an Austen story because she never finished it. Her work still shines to this day and it is her characters that began their development in those first 11 chapters that defined what Sanditon is. I inferred that they were both childish in spirit and had fun together. With time and a little more character development she would come to understand it better. I did warn you a few weeks ago that the last episode had a Big Surprise. Young Stringer and Charlotte strike up a friendship. I have the complete works of Jane Austen as books, and one or two DVDs of each of the movies or TV versions. Vic, thanks for all the summaries and dissections. I cant believe it! Sanditon Episode 3. Also, Charlotte was 22, and she never seems quite that age in this series. Its for Charlotte and (eyeing his ball attire), you look like one of THEM! Davies and his writing team were writing against deadline, or so the story goes in the The World of Sanditon companion book. The Ms. Lambe scenario is quite reasonably played out so far, has everyone forgotten that Otis is a rather flamboyant gambler. Like throwing into the story Lady Susan! Does she just resent being forced to go where he makes her? I suffered through 8 episodes so I could watch Sidney throw Charlotte over for that pretentious twit of a widow? That would have mentally prepared me for the drama and lack of era-appropriate dialogue and situations. I am thinking of Persuasion now, and though this is a reverse situation, where the man chooses to marry for money (for whatever reason) instead of for the love of his life there arises an opportunity for a do over. That is a plausible ending if there is another episode for Sanditon. I mean, this is way better than most of the heaping garbage people put money into so why not make it happen? But almost anyone can know her intentions when she took up the pen. Bleh. The horses increase their speed, their manes and tails flying in the wind. Oh well, for that matter, everyone else was allowed in there too. She does have it on in a few scenes, but not the all-important cliff walk with Sidney; I figured the show runners didnt want anything in the way of an amazing kiss. What did I just invest my time in? mp_sf_list_2_description: What to Know: Bohemian artist Charles Lockhart made quite a splash in Season 2 and seemed the only man uninterested in Miss Lambe's fortune. Charlotte, my dear CharlotteI had hoped that upon my return Id be able to make you a proposal of marriage, but it cannot bethe fact is I have been obliged to engage myself to Mrs. Eliza Campion.. After reading through the comments, I realize that, while there are plenty of plot strands which could be developed for a second season, none of them draws my interest as much as the Sidney/Charlotte one and that one has, failing another DEM, is DOA. I agree with Polly above about asking Miss Lambe for the money, but since she resents Sidney, she probably wouldnt have given it. We discovered she had a secret love called Otis who was a good man but flawed because. Otherwise, Sanditon season 2 wrapped up its major storylines: Alison married Captain Fraser, Tom and Arthur Parker finally got Colonel Lennox to pay the money he owed to the town, Georgiana learned that Charles Lockhart was the fiend scheming to marry her for her fortune, and Sir Edward Denham is now being punished by Lady Denham for his cruel Not sure what fate Sidney deserves. Old Stringer is buried. Sanditon is MASTERPIECE's bold and lavish adaptation of Jane Austen 's final work. I kept waiting for Charlotte and Diana to walk to the circulating library, an important component of fashionable resorts, and a hub of social activities. I also was really bothered that all the other Parkers let Sidney take all the weight of the financial burden. 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. Absolutely agree, particularly about the ridiculousness of the Parkers not objecting to Sidney sacrificing himself. What about borrowing all or part of the money from Georgianna? My little Applause comment above was meant to go with Pollys comment, but no matter. This is the first time Ive been labeled as honored. Usually people give me less agreeable monickers, many of which cannot be printed in a family friendly blog. The horses gallop along a beautiful stretch of beach. After what seems to be an age, Charlottes dance with Stringer finally ends. Esther laughs joyously and for the first time viewers watch her blossom into a fun-loving young woman whose worries disappear with a man who loves her more than she loves him. With Rose Williams, Crystal Clarke, Elizabeth Berrington, Jack Fox. Sidney is the Willowby character from Sense and Sensibilities. I wish Sanditon had been marketed to us as a mini soap opera version of a Jane Austen classic romance rather than a continuation of an unfinished novel. The viewer is immediately transported to the same intersection of the Sanditon set that they have seen repeatedly. (Thanks, Robert Rodi for the title, which I borrowed from your book.). All care toward making things accurate to the period was forfeited, and Charlotte, this common-folk visitor girl was allowed in every conversation and situation. Arthur interrupts to ask Miss Lambe to dance. 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. I dint like the poorly designed set for the town of Sanditon. 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? It was a real missed opportunity there and the writers did a poor job with her. 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 . How could Tom have allowed it given his own feelings about love?

The TV series Sanditon has a total of eight episodes. The Parkers financial future lies in Sidneys quick return, and they gnash their teeth as they await news of his success. Ultimately, on the other hand, the decision to . "Now that is quite the accusation to level against an officer of the British empire, Miss Lambe," he replied with just enough of an angle to his smile to confirm that his loyalty was far from unshakeable. 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. It is very clear that he hoped for a second season. You get what you pay for, or dont pay for. I got much too carried away and meant to but neglected to acknowledge Vic.

Really to leave a Jane Austen story in such a shambles is a travesty. I agree that just 1 more episode not an entire second series would suffice to wrap up the loose ends. Maybe hell come home paralyzed for life (which will last exactly one episode) before finding Eliza in bed with another man. 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. All your thoughts about the series make sense. The last episode of Sanditon saw that Sidney and Charlotte finally confess their love for each other. The next thing we know, someone yells, Fire!
