P&P2? Emma3? What do these numbers mean?

The P&P adaptation notation convention is something started on AUSTEN-L. The list members got in the way of referring to the two BBC versions as one and two, before remembering about the Olivier/Garson pseudo adaptation, and sneaked it in, database style.

P&P0 = 1940 P&P1 = First BBC P&P. Shown first in 1979, have seen dated as ’85 and ’87;
P&P2 = 1995 A&E/BBC, first shown in the US in January 1996 P&P3 = 2005 Working Title
P&PW=the Wishbone version.

The BBC made other versions of P&P, but none are available on video tape. Adaptations of the other novels have similar numbering schemes, though none have the quirky zero.

Emma1 = 1972 BBC version, with Doran Godwin and John Carson;
Emma2 = 1996 Miramax release starring Gwyneth Paltrow and Jeremy Northam;
Emma3 = 1997 Mini-series shown on A&E in the US with Kate Beckinsale and Mark Strong.;
