Let's jump on a plane and talk to the peeps in charge when something goes haywire, shall we?

I love Moni Sengupta's story about heading to Boston to see the premier of Sanditon here in the states. I think Jane would have been proud of her!ย 

Here's her bio:

Moni is a Washington DC lawyer, wife, and mom of three teenagers. She is a huge Jane Austen fan. She's lived in DC for nearly 30 years and is originally from a suburb of Boston. And, she is a dual US and UK citizen, however, so part of her Jane Austen affinity comes from that! She's on Twitter at: @moshimisen.

Listen in to hear what she did to share how to keep the story alive for a #SanditonSeason2!

CAUTION: there are many spoilers in this miniseries from Season 1 of Sanditon, which was a recent PBS/Masterpiece and ITV/Red Planet miniseries production which happened in early 2019.. If you have not yet seen the miniseries, you may not want to listen to this podcast miniseries until you do so.

You may find the series online at the following sites:
