Very odd indeed. I was curious about the history of the Bigg-Wither surname. I wanted to give the screenwriter Gwenyth Hughes the benefit of the doubt, but according to online sources on the family of Harris Bigg-Wither, ahttp://www.bigg-wither.com/People/Harris_Bigg-Wither_1781-1833.htm, Harris’ father Lovelace’s last name was the same, so no reason that I can see for the change. In addition, in reference books about Austen, they use Bigg-Wither. Since the screenwriter’s research was thorough, this seems a very strange ommission. Sorry for the slight to your family, but it does not change the importantance of the story.

Cheers, Laurel Ann

Very strange in deed. It is well known that this was his surname.
