Seizoen: 2013 - Aflevering: 93 / 2128 - Eerst uitgezonden: 10 mei 2013 - Episode ID: 757632

Amanda Vickery and Alastair Sooke oversee proceedings as a group of experts stage a Regency ball at Chawton House, Hampshire, to mark the 200th anniversary of the first publication of Jane Austen's classic novel. The team uses music from the Austen family archives and dances and dishes mentioned in the author's novels and letters to recreate the experience, and Amanda is joined by literary historian John Mullan to reflect on the importance of the ball and its role in 19th-century society.
