Mr Earnshaw brings a mysterious child home.

Mr Earnshaw brings a mysterious child home. Thrilling yet haunting classic Bronte tale starring Ben Batt and Chloe Pirrie.

Mr Earnshaw brings a mysterious child home... 

Emily Bronte's only novel 'Wuthering Heights' is unforgettable, full of passion and darkness. Thrilling but haunting until the very end.

A story filled with violence, forbidden trysts, family warfare and revenge. Riddled with drinking, gambling, cursing and consumption. It's got energy, it's fast, passionate, unpredictable and thrilling. The story is elemental and tempestuous, uniquely bound to its setting on the bleak Yorkshire moors.

Omnibus of the first five of ten-parts adapted by award-winning writer Rachel Joyce.
