What if Pride & Prejudice was told from Darcy's point of view? What if the real heroine of the story was Georgiana Darcy who pushed her brother to chase his true love? What if we had a front row seat to Darcy pretending to himself that he wasn't pining for Elizabeth? Stefanie and Melinda discuss why this adaptation was written because of the 1995 TV show, and why Mr Darcy's character might just be modelled on the world's very first fashion influencer, in Darcy's Story by Janet Aylmer.
