Between Christmas and New Year the BBC broadcasted a new mini series called Death Comes to Pemberley. The series is based on a novel with the same name that was written by P.D. James. It is a sequel to Jane Austen's Pride & Prejudice and takes place some time after Pride & Prejudice ended. Elizabeth's family is gathering at Pemberley because of a ball that will take place in a couple of days. Her sister Lydia arrives screaming in her carriage. She was traveling with her husband Wickham and his best friend Captain Denny. During their ride through the forrest, Denny had suddenly decided to step out of the carriage and Wickham followed him. Within minutes two gunshots are heard which made the horses stampede and drive off leaving Wickham and Denny behind. As soon as Lydia arrives, Darcy immediately sets out a search party and in the dark they find a drunken Wickham and a dead Denny.
