Jane Austen Stories is the new show from the Noiser podcast network, narrated by Dame Julie Andrews.
Season One begins with Julie reading an all-time classic of English literature, Pride and Prejudice, in its original masterful form.
Join us twice a week as we walk grand estates, take tea with well-dressed gentlewomen, and enter ballrooms to dance with the great and good of the county. But in this tranquil corner of England, not everything is quite as it appears... Can our heroine Elizabeth navigate a world of secrets and simmering passions? Can the Bennet family avoid scandal and destitution? And is the mysterious Mr Darcy as dastardly as he seems?
