Is Sanditon Season 3 Coming in March 2023?

Sanditon is just around the corner to return with its Sanditon Season 3 and final season. Andrew Davies developed this historical drama series that is adapted from Jane Austen’s unfinished manuscript.

Austen completed 24000 words at the time of her death. The plot is set in the Regency era and revolves around a naive and young heroine Charlotte Heywood who navigates a new seaside resort named Sanditon where she comes unexpectedly and where the spirited and unconventional woman becomes face-to-face with suitors and scheming inhabitants.

The series received a mixed reception from viewers as some of them criticized the series for its depiction of nudity and s*x which is alien to the works of Jane Austen and has been termed as “un-Austen-like”.

Viewers are also expecting a happy ending as this is the general characteristic of Austen’s world.
