Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell

Presenting an "alternate history" of 19th-century England during the Industrial Revolution, this seven-part British miniseries adapted from the Susanna Clarke novel depicts a world in which magic is real but almost never openly practiced. Sorcery soon links the destinies of young gentleman Jonathan Strange (Bertie Carvel) and magician Gilbert Norrell (Eddie Marsan) in shaping their country's war against Napoleon. With Alice Englert, Charlotte Riley, and Paul Kaye. 7 hrs. On three discs. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English. Region Free
