S1E1:A Wish for Wings

In Search of the Brontës

2 Aug 2003TV-PG

The world of windswept moors and tragic heroines vividly evoked in gothic literature such as Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights and Agnes Grey bears a resemblance to the Bronte sisters' own experiences. But it is not the whole picture. The formative years of Anne, Charlotte and Emily Brontë reveals years of hardship as they grew up together in Haworth, and the profound influence of their father.
