Oh, Emma! Got into trouble again?
Although she always meant good, Jane Austen’s Emma is known for stirring things up in her hometown while playing the matchmaker.

Set in the early 19th century, this all-time classic has been brought to the big screen in many ways, but which one is your favourite?

We couldn’t answer this question easily so we watched two versions and tried to make up our minds!

So, tune in to listen to our discussion about Emma and Emma.! Two wonderful films, both true to the original material, but so different from each other.

***Spoiler alert! While reviewing this film we go through key scenes and may reveal the ending, so be warned of spoilers!***
