There's another Other Bennet Sister on the way: The Other Elliot Sister
The BBC has given the go-ahead to a new sideways adaptation of a different Jane Austen classic: Persuasion.
Bad Wolf's founder Jane Tranter has announced plans for The Other Elliot Sister, a follow-up to the hit series The Other Bennet Sister. Based on Jane Austen's Persuasion, the new adaptation aims to explore the perspective of one of Anne's sisters, a concept that proved successful in the Mary-centered storyline. Adapted from Janice Hadlow's novel, The Other Elliot Sister will follow the events of Austen's novel and Anne's search for love.
While Persuasion doesn't have a clear Mary analogue, the BBC has yet to determine which Elliot sister will be designated "The Other." The Other Bennet Sister concluded with a three-part Christmas special airing later this year.
