Jane Austen Stories

Poor Lizzy can’t seem to get away from Mr Darcy. Everywhere she goes, he seems to pop up out of the blue, like a moody (though admittedly handsome) jack-in-the-box. When she learns from his cousin Fitzwilliam that Darcy scuppered her sister Jane’s prospects with Bingley, Lizzy is more desperate than ever to avoid him. But then Darcy pays her a private visit, with a very surprising question on his lips... A Noiser podcast production. Narrated by Dame Julie Andrews Written by Jane Austen Recording Engineer: Sam Hamilton Produced by Katrina Hughes Script Supervisors: Dr Emmie Rose Price-Goodfellow, Ed Baranski and Duncan Barrett Sound Supervisors: Tom Pink and Oliver Baines Sound Design by Tony Onuchukwu, George Tapp and Tom Pink Audio Editing by Josh Latham Compositions: Dorry Macaulay Music Performances by Dorry Macaulay, Oliver Baines, Mia Whittaker, and Moritz Flohr Audio Continuity by Carla Flores
