I'm a big fan of Jane Austen's stories so I was very excited to watch this show. It really surprised me in a positive way since the ending is not as expected in most Austen's stories. I loved the more realistic way how things happened. I think the story is well developed but sometimes confusing because of the relationships between each character. However I think they lacked exploring how Sanditon was being turned into a thermal town by focusing to much on different love-stories at the same time. It's worth watching.

I was quite disappointed with this movie. I love Michaela Cole's work because it's always so "straight to the point" and true but this... I get it is a musical, but the music is what makes the movie boring.

The plot is good but not well developed and there are way too many stories happening at the same time. Also, all those stories make no sense and it's hard to find a guiding line that connects all those characters.

However it's beautifully performed and shot. The actors are fabulous and I'm sure if this was on a stage in any theatre I would've loved everything from beginning to end. But the fact it is a film, it fails on transmitting to the viewers the emotion of the characters or the place where those feelings and actions come from.

I had to watch it in "instalments" so I wouldn't lose focus and actually appreciate the story.

It isn't a waste of time to watch if, like me, you pay attention to the performances, storyline or scenery and believe a bad story well performed is better than a great story underperformed.

This episode is bizarre in the sense that it shows one of the many possible scenarios of what could've happened if Frankie and Grace hadn't decided to live together. Many comments mention that the episode is not good but I disagree. I think it's just misplaced. It should be the first episode of season 6. It would've been a funny way to start a new season following the events in season 5. But the fact that they decided it to be ep.13 makes me assume that the writers and producers didn't know if the show would be renewed for another season. It's just an odd way of ending the season since it's not how they ended the previous ones. However it's still a nice episode that shows how beneficial the frendship is for Frankie and Grace.
