VANITY FAIR (BBC PART 1) (1998)

Cast

Plot

Becky is determined to be the controller of her own destiny despite her relatively lowly origins and we follow her frequently fraught attempts to land a man of wealth and the lengths that she will go to in order to achieve her goals, from the idiot Jos Sedley to the caddish Rawdon Crawley. Vanity Fair is a superior literary adaptation from the BBC set within the upper echelons of English society during the war with Napoleon.
