A poster for ‘what’s class got to do with it?’ A one day symposium, then a picture of a vintage tv set
I attended a really fascinating symposium today about class in the British TV industry at Leeds University. Great to hear from academics, screenwriters and folks from the BBC!

A shelf in a gift shop showing merchandise that says ‘pemberley’ but shows the image of Chatsworth house
Brilliant site visit to Chatsworth House today to see how they conflate their image with #JaneAusten ‘s Pemberley (it was the filming location for Pemberley in the 2005 Pride & Prejudice).

Opening title of Sanditon TV Series, an illustration of the facade of Sanditon House is against a blue sky, three figures, two women wearing Jane Austen bonnets and a man with a cane stand in front of it, their backs to the viewer. In one corner a title in white reads 'Directed by Olly Blackburn'. There are some graphics overlays that look like blueprints.
Very excited to have just completed the page proofs for my first journal article ~ Legitimizing And Authenticating a Post-Heritage Austen Diegesis Through Filming Locations ~ #sanditon #janeausten #filminglocations
