Product Description:
JANE ERYE: Jane Eyre (Zelah Clarke) is a mistreated orphan who learns to survive by relying on her independence and intelligence. Her first job in the outside world is governess to the ward of Mr. Rochester (Timothy Dalton) a man of many secrets and mercurial moods. The tentative trust between them slowly develops into romance but their hopes for happiness will soon be jeopardized by a terrible secret . MIDDLEMARCH: 19th century Great Britain. The Industrial Revolution brings both the promise and fear of change. In the provincial town of Middlemarch the progressive Dorothea Brooke desperately seeks intellectual fulfillment in a male-dominated society and is driven into an unhappy marriage to the elderly scholar Casaubon. No sooner do they embark on their honeymoon than she meets and develops an instant connection with Casaubon's young cousin Will Ladislaw. When idealistic Doctor Lydgate arrives his new methods of medicine sweep him into the battle between conservatives and liberals in town. He quickly becomes enamored of the beautiful privileged Rosamond Vincy a woman whose troubles seem bound to destroy him.System Requirements:Running Time: 390 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA Rating: NR UPC: 794051231123

I purchased only the Jane Eyre DVD from this set. It's the same production with Timothy Dalton as the older 2-tape VHS edition that has been out for many years.

Also, I did not expect the format to be episodes of a TV series, with frequent breaks. The VHS version is a continuous movie.
