Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte adapted in ten instalments by Nan Macdonald
Read by BILLIE WHITELAW
Jane has been left by Mr. Rochester to watch over Richard Mason , while he himself goes to fetch a surgeon. Locked with the wounded man in the tapestried room of the third storey, wiping away the blood which trickled from his arm, casting a fearful eye on the door of the inner room which held Grace Poole , it seemed to Jane her vigil would never end.
