The Other Bennet Sister

About The Other Bennet Sister

Mary isn't your typical period drama heroine. She is awkward, anxious, preachy, full of facts, a terrible singer, overlooked by her mother and seemingly destined to an empty dance card for the rest of her life… until Mary takes matters into her own hands.

BBC One's The Other Bennet Sister is a comedy series. Ella Bruccoleri plays Mary Bennet.

It has run to one season of 10 episodes since March 2026. The story is adapted from a novel.

Shelv files it under depressing, pretentious, romance, and costume drama. It streams on BritBox and BritBox Amazon Channel in the United States. It scores 8.2 out of 10 from 53 TMDB voters.

Starstruck, Wolf King, and The Walking Dead: World Beyond make useful companions to The Other Bennet Sister, all filed under cliché.
