Jane Eyre [Omnibus] Charlotte Bronte's most beloved novel - the iconic and dangerous love story starring Amanda Hale and Tom Burke Award-winning writer Rachel Joyce adapts Charlotte Bronte's famous novel for BBC Radio 4 as part of this year’s bicentenary celebrations of Bronte’s birthday (21st April 1816).  This 10-part drama is a mix of romance, passion, injustice and danger all wrapped-up in a love story. Jane Eyre is arguably as relevant today as it was when it was published in 1847. It is an emotional rollercoaster of a story, which follows the experiences of the young title character.

compelling rendition


(5 stars)

Excellent! After just watching the story on Brit Box, this rendition followed the series quite closely. I enjoyed it immensely and even cried during a few scenes. I'm compelled to explore other versions of the story including the original..

Great story Great reading!


(4.5 stars)

VERY well done! I personally enjoyed reading the book more because this is abridged but that doesn't make the acting less valuable! Every part was well acted and the music and sound effects were great!

Loved it
