- We know that some Sanditon fans already accepted Sidney’s death and welcomed Alexander; there might still be some fans who cannot forget Theo James. It’s true that the character Alexander, played by Ben Lloyd-Hughes, stole everyone’s heart and became an immediately well-loved character. But we can also say that Sidney and Charlotte were great for each other.
What do you think about Theo James? Do you think Sidney should come back to Sanditon? Are you team Alexander or team Sidney? Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
#theojames #sanditon #rosewilliams
Theo's portrayal of Sidney was spot on, and though as I tried to get into Colburne, I could not... Sorry but without Theo, I'm not really interested in watching Sanditon unless there's a chance of his return.
Me too. No Theo = No Sanditon
Same here. I will not watch either.
Same here, the book was the Kane Austen novel and when I read it, I see Charlotte and Sydney.
The book remained unfinished…. Jane Austin died before she could complete her novel.
@@lynsey-diane6643 It will always remain unfinished it Sidney doesn't return...
I love Sidney. He’s such a cool, interesting character. It was hard to move on from him in season 2, but I think they did well leading the viewer through Charlotte and The Parker’s grief. I miss his character, but I love Xander now. I wouldn’t scoff at a fake death to bring Theo back though 😅
Realy i am not interested vu thé private life of Théo James hé has décidés to leave thé série it IS his choice hé was a beautiful Sydney and a magnificient couple with rose who Plays Charlotte but i don' t liké his déclaration i can' t work with hier it IS not élégant and i dont liké ces paroles blessantes sur une partenaire thé show must go on whithout sur Théo Théo James no problème thé two saisons After with ben who Plays Alexander colbourne are very interesting and rose and ben are excellent charming magnificient couple of actors and thé série sanditon IS a Big success
glad he is gone he got another role
Just found this series last night, binged watch all 8 episodes. So disappointed to learn of Theo James’ departure. I don’t know if Season 2 is worth watching without Sidney.
Yes, it is worth watching and Season 3 is wonderful!
I'm sure you will enjoy S2 and 3!
I wonder if Theo's wife, who also appeared in season 1, had anything to do with him leaving??? Just a thought.
Мне кажется этот главная причина.
I tried to continue watching the show after s1 but it fell flat. It was missing its initial banter, chemistry and angst. Sidney and Charlotte’s love story had so much potential for further exploration. It’s unfortunate that Theo left.
I did like Sidney and Charlotte together, but he chose to leave. So I moved on and am happy that the production was able to bring another interesting story to the table. For me, I find it worth watching!
Bring Sidney back the chemistry between him and Charlotte is so enticing you just keep wanting more .
Sanditon was never the same without Sidney! It lost all its chemistry
Alexander and Charlotte had great chemistry no?
I' m team Sidney Parker!! Sidlotte forever! Sidney is Jane Austen's last hero!!
Definitely Sydney should come back! As a true Jane Austen ending.
From the very first episode, that's what we all expected. I'm sorry I keep saying it, but it will be wrecked otherwise..
Austen wrote zombie novels???
@@carolegriggs3107 and yet... it wasn't 😂
I don't know why we don't see more of Theo James either in UK or Holywood he's a good actor and handsome more so than many of the present popular actors of today
Bring Sidney back , he makes the show so much better!!!
Nah
Bring Sydney back.
Sidney should return to end the show the right way
I honestly prefer the storyline with Alex.I think that before the dominant in the relationship was Sydney and now there is a balance.
Theo needs to come back. Faking his death because he was unhappy with the rich chick is ok by me, they never really showed him as dead.
YES!
show boring not cuz he left but because a lot of people that got me watching gone now i watch im like um all these people boring even charlotte took a dive in the show for me sighs
Er we had the funeral in first ep S2.
Please please bring sanditon back for a season 4 Sidney could return as knowone so his body it could have been mistaken identity
I did watch the second season but couldnt bring myself to watch the 3rd.. Team Sidney all the way.. The charisma of the show went out the window after the 1st season.. I would even have preferred a recast for the character of Sidney, despite how much I love Theo - I would have loved to watch Sidney and Charlottes happy ending unfold.. Such a shame they didnt recast..
Regarding this video: My guess is that it took too long for the show to come back.. Remember that it took over 2 years before Sanditon was renewed.. Actors move on to other projects.. I think thats what happened here.. Theo moved on.. If Sanditon had been renewed right away after the 1st one, then maybe he would have continued the series..
Such a shame on a really good 1st season.. Will never get over it LOL
I would love to see Theo,back as Sidney.I’ve only watch watched season one. But finding out Theo won’t be back, makes me lose interest in watching the remainder series 😢
Alexander is good, but Sidney is even better, I was sorry he went away. Actually, it did not feel right, Sidney's character had not prepared me for such an end.
I am sorry but there is a real story that has not been actually told. Theo James was an Executive Producer of Sanditon. That means he paid money for the production. He is a far better actor and I think the cast played some not so smart games with the whole thing. He has recently said some things as had an executive producer from ITV US . Sanditon had been cancelled by ITV which is the network in the U.K. that has commercials. They had problems with the showings and decided to cancel it in August right after the showing. PBS who was considered the possible next step did nothing for 6 months when they had been told by Andrew Davies and cast members like Theo that the problem was episode 8 . It needed a change. Some scenes had also been cut because of the commercials. PBS was not fair to anyone by the delay and although they had done some promotions with Theo and Rose the fact is they were not in a good place. The cast also did not all behave as they understood and since the pay scale is far less in the U.K. having a cast member putting up funds as an executive producer and the lost time did not help. Season 2&3 were filmed back to back for cost savings. Season 2 did not fair well in the U.K. again the commercials on ITV. ITV owns BritBOX so they will be the streaming service and PBS is barely dealing with season 3. This is not Jane Austen and to me I feel that if the ITV explanation and Theo’s unhappiness with cast members is true I do not blame him. Ben is not a strong actor and season 2 ended badly. Nothing is Jane Austen. To me the most important thing missing is basic integrity of the cast like Rose Williams. By the time season 3 is seen that is over 3 & 1/2, years from the beginning and Theo James has his own production company and he has done some good things. He was great in White Lotus. I think PBS needs to give us a far better explanation. Rose Williams and the others need to think about it. Theo was the leading man. Ben does not compare and I will not watch it. I like Chris Marshall and hope he gets his BritBOX detective program off the ground. I am 100% a Sidney Parker fan .
@@anitapemstein51 I totally agree with you. I actually wish it had not been made at all. It's like losing a real life love that you can never get over...
Ι totally agree with you! Theo James is a better actor with way more charisma than Ben Lloyd-Hughes and i felt that,without James, the second season lost a lot of appeal.Also you are right on point, there was an abrupt ending of Sydney's story arc.
@@alikipapadopoulou4872Ben had lots of charisma and great chemistry with charlotte! 😊
Schade, dass man hier versucht, Rose Williams nun irgendwie zu demontieren, sie schlecht zu machen...
Offenbar ist der Frust von Sanditon-Fans über das Ausscheiden von Theo James gross, was ich wirklich verstehen kann.
Aber hat sich selbst mit seinem wie ich fand, etwas arrogantem Statement, verabschiedet. Ich bin auch von S1 begeistert gwesen. Aber S2 hat mich total begeistert und Ben Lloyd Hughs hat mich voll überzeugt. Er hat bringt vollkommen andere, emotionale Qualitäten als TJ aus meiner Sicht mit.
Zumal auch für mich die Storyline in S2 interessanter war. Man sollte beide Folgen als ganz unterschiedliche Geschichten betrachten...
Im Sinne von Jane Austen🤗 und sich daran erfreuen!
Im übrigen bin ich grosser Heybornfan und hoffe auf ein tolles HAE🤩❣
Sidney…. I want Sidney back... He's just part of it. And he's the right man for Charlotte.
And Charlotte is absolutely the right woman for Sidney
I love Charlotte and Alexander together. Wish the series would continue past season 3. I look forward to Sunday nights and have re-watched them over and over again. Thank you Jane Austen.
I didn't entirely like S3 first time I watched it - so many themes, felt they were often rushed, didn't always like the denouements. But eventually I did rewatch the whole 3 series and enjoyed the experience other than I was so annoyed with what I think were script errors relating to Georgiana and Lockhart issues and the inheritance laws - but one can I am sure argue that. But I felt that whole subject was wrongly "resolved", I won't forgive the scriptwiters for that nor will I forgive them for making Georgiana, one of my great favs in S2, become so conceited and selfish in S3.
I warmed up to Alexander. It would be sad to bring back Sidney and break Charlotte up with Alexander
TEAM SIDNEY!!!!
Bring back Sydney
Bring Sidney back. Without Sidney and Charlotte, Sanditon became boring. Sorry but the 2 male actors that are Charlotte's new romantic interest, are just not right. Theo James is a much better actor and his complex character made Sanditon more interesting. I was willing to give Season 2 a chance, but was so disappointed. After watching episode 1 of Season 3, it does not look any better. Anyway thanks for season 1.
Sydney en Charlotte must marry
Why isn't colbourne right for charlotte?
We want Sydney back!
Not just him is others made the show Boom who now gone im like season 3 so boring its sad
NO NO
Team Sydney of course .
Not only is very good looking but an excellent actor , pretending so well he loves Charlotte
Colbourne is good looking and loves Charlotte too 😊
TEAM SIDNEY! :)
And he takes her on a world trip!
Sidney...
Sidney should come back.
TEAM SYDNEY 😭
It is all too late, he is not wanted. Theo James was Sidney and true to Jane Austen, he was destined to marry Charlotte. It was apparent in the ten chapters that she wrote. This period drama should have been entitled, ‘The Adventures of Charlotte Heywood’, and Austen followers would not have been disappointed. Thankfully I have read the book that was finished by ‘Another Woman’. It is true to Jane Austen and as I read it, I see Charlotte and Sydney, so have the happy ending that Austen intended. Austen would never have had her heroine traipsing from one suitor to another. How Davies et al could have made such a mess of things and using Austen’s name, is beyond me.
👋👋👋👋 Spot on!!!!
Agreed
I too have that completed version. Othr than the new holiday complex isn't built (a serious shame), and I don't see Georgiana as an invalid, it is a good version. Agree re the mess made of Charlotte. Firstly, IMO Sydney totally miscast - Theo not remotely right, far too sophisticated for Charlotte, not surprised he didn't return in S2 - he married the right woman given the actor's personality. Ralph is right for Charlotte. Colburn absolutely wrong too.
@@roswilliams2899 I'm looking for the completed version of Sanditon. It's hard to find in South Africa...unless I'm just not looking in the right places. Know where I can find it?
Agreed!
Team Sidney all the way

yes sidney should coke back they were good togerher
Team Sydney❤
why does the thumbnail/cover say that? the video suggest maybe they didn’t mesh but nothing is confined …and if he didn’t say that…. why put it on the thumbnail/cover that he said that?
i think it would be one hell of a twist if he Sidney came back some how. like either in her dreams or he was found alive
We'd all kill for that plot twist😅
We have so many clever SidlotteFanFiction writers out there I discovered and I love the different versions of what could have been after the ending of S1 and there are some who wrote potential continuation of S2..I'd like to think that something happened that he never really married Eliza, everyone in Sanditon never knew the truth and unknown to everyone what truly happened....bugt of course all they know was he went to Antigua without Eliza. There was an open - ended story there...
I love Alex & Charlotte together. I think that Alex is much better at respecting Charlotte.
Sanditon was a mix up right from the start. What a mess. The crazy unbelievable ending was so disappointing. Theo James dropping out
was another hit to the show and fans. Everything just seemed so unorganized and could have been so very good. So many cast members
didn't return for the next season. I miss them as well. Maybe they should have left that book where they found it. Again I think it COULD
have been a very good show. As it is I am still enjoying it but not as much as I could have. I've met a lot of new actors I like.
Solo Sidney
Team Sydney. Get him back and the other actors the red headed actress as well
Rumor and speculation. You didn’t do your research on James’ reasoning for the exit
He should come back..
Theo için izlemeye başladım 2. sezonda olmaması büyük talihsizlik o yüzden izlemeyi bıraktım
Team Alexander all the way.
Team Ben 👍❤️
As much as I was in shock when they had him die, if Sidney came back, he would still be married, so it would just be too complicated.
Theo James was in paranormal series years ago & left after the 1st season. I think that’s what he does… Leaves you wanting 😢😅
For goodness sakes, bring back Sydney! I love the two of them together. So what the HBO show failed, life happens.
I think that it is sad the way Sanditon has gone. I felt that the role of Alexander Colbourne was a poor excuse and season 2 ended badly. I feel none of the actors or the script made any sense to me. The timing was all bad and both Andrew Davies and Steven Moffatt in their respective series totally misread what audiences wanted . Theo James did not make a good choice but neither did PBS or BritBox . Sanditon season 1 needed some episode changes and ITV had cancelled 6 months prior to PBS releasing it knowing episode 8 was a problem. I also think there was some hurt feelings on the way they dealt with Theo especially if they had any knowledge of being able to continue. Alexander is not the actor that Theo is. They worked together on Divergent and Theo was a lead including 2 other parts of the series Ben did only 1 . I strongly feel that behind the scenes mistakes were made and it hurt everyone. I have lost all my feeling for Sanditon I wanted to enjoy Jane Austen . What we got was the Bronte sisters instead.
Yes, it's all wrecked now!
@@carolegriggs3107 Thank you so much. Theo is just a wonderful actor and he was Sidney Parker. PBS made a very poor mistake. They are now fundraising and though I am a member I intend to make sure they understand how many of us feel. You made me feel so much better.
@@anitapemstein51 I'm glad of that. Theo James is a hard act to follow. He has everything needed for the part of Sidney. Charisma, manliness, body language ~ the whole works! Jane Austen would have picked him herself. The Alexander Colbourne character is irrelevant. That actor, although a good actor, in my opinion, just doesn't fit the scene at all.
@@carolegriggs3107 I so agree. I just hope that one day someone will consider really do it the right way and really Theo is Sidney Parker What has been to me the hardest part is that there has been no chemistry between Rose Williams and Ben as she had with Theo. He was the right man . Thank you again. Anita
@@anitapemstein51 Anita, I absolutely agree with you on all counts. This is the modern age, but in our hearts most of us remain 'old fashioned and romantic'. There can only be Sidney and Charlotte. Hope they let us have that ending to the story.
Hello everyone one! Where can I find the full episode of this serie ?
Prime video
DVDs!
Definitely not. Alexander is much more appealing.
Maybe to come back..but I don't think so....what a pity..ruined this whole movie..sorry...
I really loved time travellers wife. I was so disappointed when it was cancelled
But not JANE AUSTEN !!
First season for me. The other two ones are irrelevant.
Well I am not on of those! This period drama was based on the unfinished work of Jane Austen. If you use another person’s work or name, then you are honour bound to finish it as Austen would have done. For sure she would never have had the heroine traipsing around from suitor to suitor. She would never have had the hero killed off. It would have followed the lines of her other six books, because that is the life she knew. This spoilt Theo should never have been chosen for the part if he couldn’t stay the course. All the producers had to do was add another couple of episodes, and they would have had a Jane Austen novel, and a beautiful period drama. They totally messed up and disappointed the followers of Jane Austen. I could have done a better job myself. This was not about Theo James, this was about a Jane Austen novel. Have you got it now!
I'm Heybourne team and no one can change my mind😍😍😍😍
gross, you can have him, he's got less personality than a potato
Definitely Team Colbourne
Team Xander for me. At first I didn’t think Sanditon could withstand the loss of the Theo. But charlotte and her dimpled chin more than anchored the show. Also Sydney who would cold bloodedly marry a woman he didn’t love-knowing charlotte’s integrity, I would imagine she’d lose all respect for him. Xander is believable and a better match. Charlotte deserves better than what Sydney had to offer. I love the show but don’t care for its many plot holes
Sorry, but... Team Alexander O.O
@@sessizlik8660 Nope. :D Not my type at all. And my glasses are new, so... :P
Whatever........they totally ruined that show.
Wow..spoiler alert🙈
In the book ...did really sidny die?
Jane Austen didn't finish the book
how many ways are you going to pronounce Sanditon????
Without him and everything.....
I prefer Colbourne
😭😭😭😭😭😭
Wherry is Sydney
After Theo left I stoped watching it!!
Char-lot? 😳
I just started s2 and I have lost all interest in the series. Seems lifeless to watch it without Sidney
Rose Wiliams is so lovely but without Theo/Sydney this story has no meaning. I refuse to watch season two, I haven't and I won't. And bringing him back , possible fake death would be too cheesy, turning Jane Austen's novel into soap opera.
Maybe watch s2 before deciding if the heroines story has meaning or not??
Theo James is married in real life to actress playing Eliza!
Charlotte: pronounced Charlut, not "Charlot."
Sidney and Charlotte barely had a relationship.
Theo James needs to be unfamed by fans ...sounds like a lot of EGO ...ewwww
You all know he died in the first episode of season 2 right?
Переведите на русский! 🙂 И не возвращайте Тео Джеймса в 3 сезон. Мне понравился 2. И пусть Шарлотта будет счастлива с Александром Колбурном! 🙂
Get over Sidney.
I mean they killed him off so why would he be in season 3…
Because the viewing public want him to be...
@@carolegriggs3107 I don’t. I’m fine with who they had casted in season 2.
@@amandalynn9774 Your prerogative...
@@amandalynn9774 Well, that's fine. To each his own...
I don't think he's dead, i think he's alive
I like both the same
Oh that's a bunch of crap. I didn't even know the woman he marry was his real life wife, just found that out
I think the whole thing is a mess. Alexander to me is not a very good actor and Theo snd he were in Divergent together. One thing everyone leaves out is Theo is married to Ruth Kearney who was also the person he left to marry. Theo is extremely private but in fact the couple were having a baby and Ruth the same age as Theo was very pregnant with first child at age 35 or 36 and their baby girl was born in August. The timing was wrong. Also ITV actually explained the problem by an executive producer who explained the series could have had enough time to do needed changes since it aired August of 2018 but PBS aired the cancelled series in February of 2019. It needed some rewrite with some very questionable scenes and Andrew Davies could have made changes and actors like Theo who was an executive producer on series 1 could have helped. Rose Williams and Theo had chemistry but she was trying to support the many fans who helped and paid for the additional seasons. She is a team player. She was hurt as Theo was as well. He made 2 poor choices . Time Traveler’s Wife and Mr. Malcolm’s List Austen like but no one saw it since it did poorly with a July4 weekend release against the Minions and without a streaming service did not and more than $2or 3 million . With 2 losers Theo who absolutely is Sidney Parker and only season 1 counts except for episode 8 maybe. Some wonderful kissing scenes between Theo and Rose were left off. The timing was poor and Justin Young had problems. Theo was a major part of Divergent . Ben lasted one filming and season 2 was just terrible. I do not care about season3 It is not Jane Austen . Theo is Sidney the Mr. Darcy who hurt and was hurt . To me the worst part is it hurt Jane Austen who died at 41 over 200 years ago.
Well put!
Yes, it is terrible to give this period drama, Jane Austen's name. Having read the book by Jane Austen ans Another Woman. I am peaceful and on reading the book, could see Rose and Theo, with an ending that Austen herself would have written. The 'Another Woman', is a follower of Austen and also a writer. At the end she writes; AN APOLOGY FROM THE COLLABORATOR.
The first eleven chapters of Sanditon were written between January 27 and March 18,1817. She died on July 18, 1817.
The fragment was bequeathed to her niece, Anna Austen Lefroy.
....As such, Sanditon has long been familiar to literary critics; I would like to emphasise, however, that neither this apology nor my completion of the manuscript is intended for them, but for the lay readers of Jane Austen.
.....The actual joining the present narrative takes place half way through chapter 11.
....So what was there to worry about in completing Jane Austen's last manuscript? Only the way she wrote it. Her language, her integrity and her painstaking methods of work- that terrifyingly accurate and meticulous technique- combine to give us the same sense of serenity and assurance in the six novels in which she brought her world to life and made it real for us. None of these things can be faithfully copied. And for their deficiencies in this seventh novel. I do apologise.
Her apology was four pages, so I could only select a few parts. I found it very interesting, and wished that the period drama could have followed this book.
Hi Annette! May you please let me know the title and author of the book and where to buy it. Thanks ! I’ve been looking but I couldn’t find it. 👍
@@melbas07 Yes of course. The cover has as follows:- SANDITON
A Novel by
Jane Austen
and Another Lady
It looks like Peter Davies was the publisher. The Other Lady has published books in her own name but preferred to remain anonymous in this case. At the end, she writes an Apology which is ver interesting. I hope you find it, enjoy it and feel that Sanditon belongs to Jane Austen.
@@melbas07 Sorry, forgot to add, that a friend purchased it from Amazon and then sent it on to me.
Why should he He is dead
Sorry for the actor playing Alexander but he can’t match the charm and level of Theo James. Neither his character nor his vision is attractive. If he gets a proper shave and remove the long sideburns which make his face looking odd he may get a bit more likeable.
Watch S3.... Alexander has bucketloads more charm than Sidney ever did. He is more romantic as well. Honestly ben is the better actor and it's so tiresome to hear people delude themselves into thinking theo is the better actor of the two.
@@xoxo-qc6qd Unfortunately I can’t agree with you. Theo acting is superb, his looking and charisma is much stronger which of course is not Ben’s fault, it’s a gift. Season 1 was the best though it had its weaknesses. In S2 and S3 the plot was diluted and there were storylines added which Jane Austen would have never included. But you are of course entitled of your own opinion and if you could enjoy S2 & S3, good for you.
@@xoxo-qc6qd For me, the Alexander character was far better suited for Charlotte...he valued and respected her far more, imo and that definitely gets my vote.
i don't mind Sydney married to whoever it was. I don't actually care at all about Charlotte. I go for Ralph for Charlotte. Absolutely not Colburn.
Why not colbourne?
@@aprilrose6630 I have changed my mind since I wrote that a year ago. I still admit I don't care about Charlotte as I have other heroines in the series - the dramatiser unlike Austen gave us plenty of choice. But now, having recently rewatched the whole 3 series, I am right off Ralph - he's a bit controlling and jealous and he doesn't want Charlotte to show independence I'd say, and she's too intelligent for him, and I don't like him. And yes the two girls do "need a mother" and Charlotte will do that well for them.
@@roswilliams2899 why don't you like charlotte as much as the other heroines ? Yes Ralph seemed a bit controlling and often spoke for charlotte as if she didn't have her own mind. Colbourne allowed her to speak freely and I think loved that about her, her open, honest but always well intentioned opinions. Did you like Colbourne? Why or why not ? Too bad the show ended
@@aprilrose6630 I like Charlotte fine in Austen's fragment. The problem is Charlotte in S1 of the TV production. I quickly grew fed up with the actress being so immature compared to the Austen Charlotte who I think was meant to be another Eliza Bennet in many ways. I think the actress acted Charlotte OK in S2 and 3 but I preferred other ladies - the scripts gave us so many characters!
I think part of the problem was the actress needed to gain some years in age over the 3 series so she acted Charlotte much younger than she herself was in S1, but in S2 and 3 she acts more her age. But by then for me the damage was done especially as no way could I believe that Sidney wanted to be with her and that was due to the respective casting, not the script. As I understand it, Austen's Charlotte is around age 22 at start of the story, whilst I feel the TV series 1 Charlotte is "acted" more like the naive teen heroine of Northanger Abbey. But, that story's hero is very different to Sidney as acted by Theo James, who to me seems to me "far too old and experienced and cynical" for the actress's S1 Charlotte? It's all for me to do with the casting and acting, not the script.The actress is as I recall in her late 20s at the start of filming? S
The other problem is the TV series gives us so many characters that I think it's inevitable some of us will prefer some other lady character. In S1 I liked Georgiana, Esther and Clara. In S3 I also like the Vicar's sister and Augusta.
Colbourne. IMO he's OK. He didn't excite me but he doesn't turn me off either. He's right for Charlotte as depicted by the actress by that stage. But I much prefer his brother in S3! I always liked naughty Edward - he was my favourite, well, anti-hero, in S1. In S2 I also liked Declan and Major Lennox. And Dr Fuchs is amusing too.
As for Ralph, urk!
Yes, there was so much material in S3 I would have quite liked a S4. I'd have taken it on a year or two and IMO Augusta and Edward were made for each other and with him a reformed vicar, they could get together?!! IMO Georgiana and her husband stay in London and get involved in the anti-slavery issues since slavery scandalously continues in the West Indies for years yet. How about Lennox turning up again? Since the script writers became obsessed with marrying off everyone, why not marry him off to Clara!! And bring back my No,1 favourite Lockhart (because the actor is a fav of mine, do you remember him as Philippe in Versailles?) He was **nephew of Georgiana's father** and deserves some fairness. His uncle ignored him and her mother ie his sister, didn't leave them a penny. Suggest he turns up with a rich wife just because I want the actor back again and makes peace with Georgiana who now is older and more understanding. And no doubt the pairing-obsessed script writers can round it all off with a wife for Ralph - doesn't Charlotte have a whole raft more sisters?!
@@roswilliams2899 lol yes to all the material you wrote for S4! And also more Heybourne!! Did you like colbourne's character/ demeanor/inner character of finally becoming a nice, kind, warm, friendly and loving man towards Charlotte? His actions? His 'looks'? So many compare their looks! All these things I see ppl always compare AC to SP on everything! I think Sidney was too aggressive and rude to CH as you say, but liked him towards the end of S1 when he was nicer and would've liked him to return S2 as nice Sidney....or if colbourne AND Sidney were in S2 both trying to win Charlotte, that would be interesting, wonder who she'd choose! 😉 AC was more suited and similar to her in demeanor, inner character and personality, likes/interests etc and was gentler and softer like her , so I think AC was better for her. :) 😀....didn't see Lockhart in Versailles but hes a good actor too.
I stopped watching after they took him off the show
This show sucks after Sydney... Alexander is gross
Why is Alexander gross, how so?
Умер - так умер, хорошо что не вернули 😂
Sidney dumped her for money,
Team Sidney, I did not like the Season 2...
I wasn't happy with Sidney's departure, but in the end it was the most realistic scenario. It was not uncommon for people to die suddenly at a young age. Especially when visiting exotic countries with different climates. This, too, gave Charlotte more layers - she knew love and knew how painful it was to lose a loved one. It was a great match for Alexander and his tragic past. Based on previous experiences, they were both wary of love issues, and I enjoyed watching them fall in love with each other.
I am glad he left I think he was too rude to Charolet
This is not about who likes who and what do you think. This was advertised as a Jane Austen novel. It should have run along the lines of her previous novels. It should not have been a trilogy and Charlotte should have married Sydney, that is what Austen intended. In the ten chapters that she wrote, it was obvious that, that was her intention. I expected that. After the ending in season one, I did not watch the other two. I found the book that was finished by ‘Another Woman’, who understood Austen and finished the book as Jane Austen would have done. This should not have been about what Theo wants or anyone else, it was about honouring the name of the authoress, paying tribute to her. When selfish Theo wasn’t going the continue, they could have had a couple more episodes, got Lady Susan to extricate Sydney from Eliza, and had the ending that Austen intended. The people who finished it, ruined it.
I do agree with you entirely that this TV Sanditon is NOT Jane Austen, tho' the first seris is better in that respect than the later two. It's quite interesting otherwise but all the time I wish they'd cast Charlotte and Sidney differently then we could I hope have had a proper Jane Austen ending for those two. Yes I have copy of Another Woman completed version. It is much nearer to Austen but I did find that Sidney irritatingly weak and Edward disappointing. But her Charlotte is IMO far better than the TV version. It's a shame the "mulatto lady" is shown as sick but we all know it was a feature of the time, and I do like how the other lady shows Arthur's interest in her.
But looking at who wrote the dramatisation for S1, unfortunately he likes to er spice up Austen, he admits it. I seriously don't like his spicing up, I wish he wouldn't do it as it isn't Austen or at least not the way he does it - I find what he likes to shove in rather prurient. I loathed his dramatisation of the wonderful long novel War and Peace. He said he had to pick out just a bit of the long story and frankly he made a mess of it. Awful. The old movie with Peter Fonda, Mel Ferrer, and Audrey Hepburn isn't perfect by any means but my goodness it gets the atmosphere of that masterly Tolstoy novel, the relationships, the war, Moscow under siege, etc, all in one movie, whilst Davies had SIX episodes for his TV dramatisation... IMO the most intriguing writing is Tolstoy's analysis of the actual battles and Pierre's trips around the battlefields which comes out well in th movie but not in Davies' version. I found Hepburn a bit "silly" for the heroine at times but it was OK.
Will producers write actor contracts which ensure the actors always return, no matter how much they may say they don't want to or they can't miss a new "better" opportunity? Will actors sign such a contract? It's quite frequent that an actor gets well established in a part and then suddenly decides to leave that character high and dry. That happened in The Musketeers when Richelieu's actor was offered Dr Who (IIRC it was that reason he left Musketeers S1). So they had to find a new villain. But in the books Richelieu was not really a villain but doing his best for France whilst the TV series Louis is a total twerp though that works well in the series context! And the new villain in S2 was superbly written and cast. So it can work, depends on many aspects.
After I rewatched the whole Sanditon TV series recently I was tghinking as you did, surely Sidney was better in that Other Woman book? But oh dear, I next reread the Other Woman book (which I had initially read quite a long while ago) and her Sidney was awful, vapid, silly, boring, weak. After a bit I stopped the reread as it was utterly unbearable, all the more as her Edward also was tedious and silly and Edward in the TV series is one of my favs, a fine anti-hero especially in S3!
So I guess the writers decided they couldn't recast Sidney. I would have preferred them to recast him. But it is as it is and people died young then as shown by Austen eg in Persuasion.
@roswilliams2899 Yes, but never the protagonists. They should have added two more episodes, used Lady Susan to disentangle Sydney from Lisa, so that he could marry Charlotte.
Whatever they did, they should have left Jane Austen's name out of it.
I've read the book three times, and I see Sydney, as Sydney from the film, his character already established.
Team Sidney forever!! He should come back!! Sidlotte are Sanditon!!
Not anymore.
@@susivarga7303 tw@t
Definitely Team Sidney! I don't care how cheesy it may look or feel to bring him back. The chemistry between the two actors Sidney & Charl0tte) felt so real. Sorry but I still cannot warm up to Alexander. Just call he a heartsick diehard!!!!
Your team captain has been dead for 3y, but keep cheering.
Colborne is a complete dud @@susivarga7303
i don"t even bother to continue to watch if Sidney doesn"t come back
Ben was definitely better. Sidney voice was to gruff, Ben was more sincere.
i just watched first Season.
