Our plan is to deliver sharp and innovative female-driven drama, full of warmth, wit and wisdom, which audiences everywhere will take to their hearts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Matthew Read for Moonage Pictures, says: &#8220;<em>The Pursuit Of Love<\/em> reads like a manifesto for how to live fearlessly and whole-heartedly while relishing the absurdities and eccentricities of life. Emily&#8217;s voice and vision perfectly capture the spirit of Mitford&#8217;s novel and we couldn&#8217;t be more excited to be involved in helping her bring it to life&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Piers Wenger, Controller of BBC Drama, says: &#8220;Emily Mortimer&#8217;s adaptation of Nancy Mitford&#8217;s masterpiece will introduce The Pursuit Of Love to a new generation of fans.
