Jones made Titanic (not that one), The Great Fire etc. Andrew Davies has adapted Austen's novel for ITV and whilst Felicity Jones is gorgeous as the impressionable heroine, Carey Mulligan steals the film. JJ Feild is the good guy and Attachments' William Beck the baddie. That scandalous 'Udolpho' gets a lot of airtime (not to mention 'The Monk').
It moves along briskly enough and made us laugh about 13th century crenellations (the Abbey is Lismore Castle in Ireland and they are in fact 12th).
