Story
After a bleak childhood, Jane Eyre goes out into the world to become a governess. As she lives happily in her new position at Thornfield Hall, she meets the dark, cold, and abrupt master of the house, Edward Rochester. Jane and her employer grow close in friendship and she soon finds herself falling in love with him. Happiness seems to have found Jane at last, but could Rochester's terrible secret be about to destroy it forever?
About the show
Jane Eyre is a six-part 1956 British TV adaptation of the 1847 novel by Charlotte Brontë. Unlike most BBC programming of the 1950s, the series survives intact, but had not been shown publicly in decades beyond a single 55 second clip on BBC iPlayer, until a complete bootlegged copy of all six episodes was uploaded to YouTube on 5 June 2025.
