Amazon.co.uk Review:
Continuing the BBC's unrivalled reputation for costume drama, their new adaptation of Jane Eyre proved to be one of the television triumphs of 2006. Based, as you'd expect, on the Charlotte Bronte book of the same name, this two-disc set brings together the full series, spread across the best part of four sumptuous hours.
It's a faithful adaptation, with Ruth Wilson giving an exceptional performance in the title role. Mr Rochester's boots, meanwhile, are filled by Toby Stephenson, and both prove to be wise choices. Backed up by an excellent supporting cast, they're also supported by some quite superb scenery, warm photography and skilful, at times neatly understated the direction, that gives the story space to develop.
Is the best adaptation of Jane Eyre? It certainly builds a compelling case, and while there's the odd slight misstep along the way, it's primarily a terrific interpretation of a classic romance. Perhaps the only real disappointment is that the DVD release itself doesn't offer more in the way of added features, but given the presentation and quality of the main attraction, that's unlikely, rightly, to deter those in search of some classic BBC drama. --Jon Foster

- Move over Darcy and Rhett!
I am absolutely addicted to this version of Jane Eyre, having watched it another 4 times this last week alone! And I'm not ashamed to admit it either! It's perfect in every way and there's nothing left out of importance. O.K. it could have done with showing more of the young Jane at Lowood Institution, but it wasn't a necessity.
This tells the story of Jane Eyre, a poor, downtrodden girl who after becoming an orphan as a baby, is sent to live with her Aunt and Uncle and their children. ... Read More

- Very good version of a great book
I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed this version of Jane Eyre. I'm quite picky over TV productions of my favourite books - for example, I'm no great fan of the Firth/Ehle P&P (an almost sacreligious version, in my opinion) - but this production of JE, I feel, has got very close to the essence of the novel. A bit over-blown at times, but then so is JE! It was given a noughties' treatment, without destroying the overall feel of the novel. The chemistry between Ruth Wilson and Toby Stephens built ...

- mills and broonte
She stared into Mr Rochester's black opal eyes and marvelled, he barely looked half his forty years and golly, what a charming manner and a way with children he had, despite what contemporary literature had lead her to believe. As she fell into his manful embrace, large chunks of her life story fell away too, who needs all that bildungsroman stuff when what josephine public is really interested in is bursting bodices? Even Mr St John Rivers now seemed to be an alright chap, even if he was a bit of a stick ... Read More
Rating: - Could be better
This adaptation of the book is good, however it does deviate from the plot a lot in my opinion. For example the entire period from the break down of the wedding to the end of the book is encompassed in only 1 hour and should have had more time spent on it. Important details are also left out of that final episode, for example Jane searching the village for somewhere to live and eat before stumbling across the Rivers household where she is rejected and then taken in. Additionally the beginning of the program ... Read More
Rating: - Brilliant !
I love the classics, and this version of Jane Eyre is stunning, in my opinion anyway.
It was an afternoon well-spent, watching this series with my teen daughter. Since there is so many reviews done of JE, I'm not going to give one.
I liked the casting of Ruth Wilson and Toby Stephens as Jane and Rochester. They did a great job of portraying the characters and the chemistry between them alone keeps you riveted to your screen.
Yes, I know Toby Stephens is far too handsome for ... Read More
