Pride and Prejudice is a humorous story of love and life amongst English gentility during the Georgian era. Mr Bennet is an Englishman living in Hertfordshire with his over-bearing wife. They have five daughters; the beautiful Jane, the clever Elizabeth, the bookish Mary, the immature Kitty and the wild Lydia. Unfortunately for the Bennets, if Mr Bennet dies, their house will be inherited by a distant cousin they have never met - and so the family's future happiness and security is dependent on the daughters marrying well. Life is uneventful until the arrival of rich gentlemen Mr Bingley, who has rented a large house in the neighbourhood to spend the summer in the country. With him is his sister and the dashing and proud Mr. Darcy. Love is soon in the air for one of the Bennet sisters, while another may have jumped to a hasty pre-judgement. For the Bennet sisters, many trials and tribulations - including, social gossip and scandal, stand between them and their happiness.
