Based on Jane Austen’s unfinished final novel, the heart of Sanditon follows the romantic courtship of Charlotte Heywood (Rose Williams) and Sidney Parker (Theo James). After the eight-episode drama aired on the British channel ITV, American audiences started watching the first season run on PBS’ Masterpiece. Though the last episode aired on PBS in January, notable fan groups, such as #sanditonsisterhood, have been keeping hope alive when it comes to finding a new home for their favorite show.
@primevideouk tweeted, “We hear you and we’re doing what we can. Please could you retweet this to let us know how many of you there are. So we can make a case for a new season?”
@ecd_the wrote, “I’ve been on Twitter petitioning for months for love of this show, and desire for a second season, and a more fitting conclusion to this Jane Austen adaptation!”
After seeing the flood of responses from Sanditon fans in their notifications and mentions, @primevideouk tweeted, “This is chaotic and beautiful. And we’re here for it.”
