“The Other Bennet Sister” is set to return to BritBox and the BBC this year for a three-episode Christmas special.

Sarah Quintrell, who penned nine out of the 10 episodes of the acclaimed “Pride & Prejudice” spinoff series, is writing all three parts based on storylines by author Janice Hadlow. Series director Asim Abbasi is also returning.

The special is set to shoot in Wales this summer and will feature Ella Bruccoleri as Mary, the titular other Bennet sister, alongside other familiar faces from the series. Based on Hadlow’s novel of the same name, the show follows the oft-overlooked middle sister in the Bennet family as she navigates the societal pressures of Regency-era England.
