The only time I saw it mentioned was in a magazine
article by Laura somebody in all the recent Austen
adapations. It mentioned Emma2, Emma3 and a 'BBC
serial adapation'. I have not heard anything more
after that, so I suspect it was either a mistake or
the project was cancelled. It could not have such
a long delay. The article was written before Emma2
2 came out.

] Does anyone else recall seeing a bit of advertising after P&P2 was aired (last fall I believe) previewing the upcoming Emma that was in the making and would probably come out this summer? (This was about the same time that Emma2 was starting to be advertised for the theater) for some reason the preview gave me this grand idea that it would be six hours long too...did anyone else get this misconception?
] and I remember thinking to myself... after I saw Emma2 "well that was good, very funny!... but wow..I can't hardly wait for the 6hr version... that will be awesome"... and as much as I liked Emma3... when I saw it I was dissapointed... I was like..hey where's the depth?..the length?...
] anyways all of the above said, because I thought maybe they aired the preview again and someone thought that what they saw ment yet another Emma.... who knows... (I'm pretty sure they said a BBC production in the preview..)
