P&P 1995 part 2

One thing I thought was really interesting was that there were a couple of added scenes that didn't happen in the book. In the books these scenes were talked about or inferred, but none were actually witnessed in the book because these scenes didn't involve Elizabeth at all and the book is from Elizabeth's point of view. The scene where Lydia has run off with Mr. Wickham is added in and shows  how Wickham was just using Lydia and Lydia is very oblivious and naiive to Mr. Wickham's intentions. The mini series also shows a scene where Darcy is doing all that he can to try and find Wickham and Lydia after they run away and Elizabeth finds out. This scene shows how Darcy has really changed and become fond of Elizabeth as much to help track down Wickham and pay him off. Another very big added scene is the wedding scene. The wedding isn't seen in the book but the wedding scene in the series is a nice touch for the ending, and adds some humor when they show how everybody is reacting to the oldest bennet girls getting married.
