Eminent Victorians

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

The fourth of six films in which the writer,
A. N. Wilson explores the Victorian age through some of its most remarkable figures. 4: Charlotte Bronte
In 1847 Charlotte Bronte asked her father to read something that she had written. He said his eyesight wasn't good enough to read a manuscript. 'Not a manuscript, Papa,' she said
'I've had it printed.' The book was Jane Eyre , and with its success she suddenly found her private world part of the collective public fantasy. Photography GRAHAM VEEVERS Film editor RICHARD FRETWELL Producer CHRISTOPHER SALT
