The actresses reflect on their roles in the 1995 BBC adaptation of the Jane Austen classic, a story of missed opportunities and lost love. The pair discuss how this bold adaptation was filmed in a naturalistic style, with minimal lighting and hardly any make-up, and also explore how the issues around class and a woman's place in society were highlighted in the script by writer Nick Dear
