The Other Bennet Sister's 'Female Gaze' Romance Has Left Fans Feral

The BBC’s most recent Austen remagining, The Other Bennet Sister, has left fans and experts alike pretty happy. 

The series focuses on the bookish, quiet, and often-ignored Mary Bennet (Ella Bruccoleri, who previously played sister Mary on Call The Midwife).

Her mother (Ruth Jones) is overbearing and obsessed with her looks and marriageability, which she finds insufficient compared to her other kids’. It takes a journey to London for the overlooked sister to find her spark; viable romantic interests follow.
