Summary
This modern AU is set in a down-at-heel seaside town on the Sussex coast near Brighton, in and around Sanditon Head, the local secondary school.
Sidney Parker is a few years older than in the series and already quite improved. He just needs a good woman to help him navigate his complex, busy life. Charlotte Heywood is also a few years older and is moving to Sanditon to start her new career.
Jane Austen’s original Sanditon is thought to be have been based on Worthing, now a sprawling conurbation with a pebbly beach. The TV series was filmed in the South West, a very different landscape with beautiful sandy beaches. I decided to bring the action back to Sussex and its pebbles that kill your feet when you walk on them.
Being British, the characters swear a lot, drink a lot of tea and spend a lot of time in the pub. Some Jane Austen characters also make fleeting appearances.
The action takes place in the present, but there is no Covid (hurrah). Most characters get a happy ending, but it does get a little dark along the way. Blame Andrew Davies.
It also gets a little steamy... but mostly I hope it’s romantic and uplifting.
