Arriving at the parsonage in Kent to visit her friend Charlotte, Lizzy submits to an exhaustive tour of the neighbourhood, conducted by her tedious cousin Mr Collins. Every local landmark is pointed out in minute detail, not least the grand estate at Rosings, home to his wealthy patroness, Lady Catherine De Bourgh.  

Before long, Lady Catherine invites Lizzy and the Collinses round for dinner... where our free-spirited young heroine doesn't exactly make a favourable impression.

As Christmas approaches in Meryton, Mrs Bennet's personal wish list is looking distinctly unfulfilled. Not only has Lizzy turned down a proposal from Mr Collins, but Jane's budding romance with Bingley appears to have fizzled out as well.  

But a new year brings fresh opportunities: the lovelorn Jane agrees to accompany her aunt and uncle on a trip to London, and Lizzy receives an invite to Kent to visit her old friend Charlotte... along with her new husband, Mr Collins.

Mr Collins wastes no time in his pursuit of a wife. Just three days after being refused by Lizzy, he's proposing again – this time to her friend Charlotte Lucas, who takes a far more practical view of the offer.  

And, with Darcy and Bingley away in London, the charismatic Mr Wickham has come out of the woodwork again. But what designs does the young soldier have on the Bennet family?

It’s an eventful day at Longbourn, as Lizzy's cousin Mr Collins finally makes his move. But despite Mrs Bennet's fulsome encouragement, his unromantic marriage proposal falls on deaf ears, and Lizzy turns him down - several times.   

Meanwhile, things aren’t looking so bright for Jane and Mr. Bingley. His scheming sister Caroline has whisked him away to London, where she's lined up a much richer potential bride-to-be... Mr Darcy's little sister Georgiana.

Jane remains at Netherfield as she slowly recovers from her illness. Meanwhile, downstairs in the drawing room, Lizzy shows no sign of letting Mr Darcy off the hook, teasing him about his stubbornness and pride. But despite Caroline Bingley's best efforts to stir up trouble between them, Lizzy's provocations only seem to stoke Darcy's admiration for her. 

Soon, Jane recovers and the Bennet sisters can finally return home to Longbourn. Lizzy however is puzzled. She has begun to find Darcy's company amusing. But what exactly does he see in her?

With her sister Jane laid up in bed with a cold, Lizzy becomes better acquainted with Mr Darcy, pushing back at his unrealistic expectations of the accomplishments a young woman should have mastered. But the more she resists him, the more Darcy seems to admire her - much to the irritation of Bingley's sister Caroline. 

The next morning, it's a full house of Bennets at Netherfield, as the girls' mother appears with her remaining three daughters in tow. Lizzy cringes at the impression her embarrassing family must be making on Bingley... and, perhaps more to the point, on Darcy too.

After dazzling the wealthy Mr Bingley at the Meryton Ball, the eldest Bennet sister, Jane, receives an invitation to visit him and his sister at Netherfield Park, the grand estate he's renting nearby. At her mother's insistence, she makes the journey on horseback, arriving drenched and bedraggled thanks to an only slightly mistimed thunderstorm. 

The wet-corseted Jane proves no less captivating to Bingley, but when she catches a cold, her younger sister Lizzy hurries off on foot to be with her. The visit offers our heroine another encounter with Mr Darcy - the same man who insulted her looks and refused to dance with her at the Meryton Ball. What could go wrong?
