The Tenant of Wildfell Hall is a 1996 British television serial adaptation of Anne Brontë's 1848 novel of the same name, produced by BBC and directed by Mike Barker. The serial stars Tara Fitzgerald as Helen Graham , Rupert Graves as her abusive husband Arthur Huntington and Toby Stephens as Gilbert Markham. [2]
Like Pride and Prejudice, The Tenant of Wildfell Hall starts with the arrival of a new person in a neighbourhood—a source of curiosity for a small rural community. Unlike Austen, Brontë makes a woman the centre of interest.
Helen Graham is a young woman who takes up residence at isolated Wildfell Hall. Arthur Huntingdon is her charming but wayward husband and Gilbert Markham is a young Yorkshire farmer who falls hopelessly in love with her.
