For those fans who have been hankering for Joseph Millson to get his teeth into some Jane Austen, you are in luck. Joseph plays Mr Knightley in a new, unabridged audio book of Emma, with a very starry cast including Emma Thompson and Joanne Froggatt. Emma will be released on Audible from 4th September 2018. 

This Audible Original production of Jane Austen's Emma is narrated by Emma Thompson (Academy Award, Golden Globe, Emmy and BAFTA winner, Love Actually, Harry Potter, Sense and Sensibility), with a full supporting cast including Joanne Froggatt (Downton Abbey, Liar), Morgana Robinson (The Windsors, Walliams & Friend, Morgana Robinson's the Agency), Aisling Loftus (Mr Selfridge, War & Peace), Joseph Millson (Casino Royale, The Sarah Jane Adventures), Alexa Davies (Mamma Mia!, Here We Go Again) and rising star Isabella Inchbald as our eponymous heroine.

Before she began writing Emma Austen wrote, 'I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like' and thus introduces the handsome, clever, rich - and flawed Emma Woodhouse. Emma is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage, nothing however delights her more than matchmaking her fellow residents of Highbury. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected. This lively comedy of manners with its witty and subtle exploration of relationships, Emma is often seen as Jane Austen's most flawless work.
