Sid Gentle Films snapped up rights to all five books, including <em>The Light Years<\/em> and <em>All Change<\/em>, to produce a five-season series.<\/p>\n<p>Woodward Gentle, who negotiated the deal, said, \u201cElizabeth Jane Howard is an extraordinary writer, a highly skilled storyteller of understatement and deceptive simplicity. The novels are totally addictive with the ability to floor you with their turn of events. They are set in the middle of the 20th century but the themes of love, loss, repression, sex and family ties are shot through with 21st-century resonance. I am thrilled that Sid Gentle Films has the opportunity to bring this wonderfully epic family saga to a new generation of drama lovers.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LONDON: Sid Gentle Films has acquired the rights for Elizabeth Jane Howard\u2019s best-selling book series The Cazalet Chronicles.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[401,1389],"class_list":["post-6817","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","","category-top-stories","tag-sid-gentle-films","tag-the-cazalet-chronicles","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Cazalet Chronicles Book Series Getting TV Treatment - TVDRAMA<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/cazalet-chronicles-book-series-set-for-tv-adaptation\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Cazalet Chronicles Book Series Getting TV Treatment - TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"LONDON: Sid Gentle Films has acquired the rights for Elizabeth Jane Howard\u2019s best-selling book series The Cazalet Chronicles.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/cazalet-chronicles-book-series-set-for-tv-adaptation\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVDRAMA\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2016-10-14T10:00:50+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2016-10-14T16:17:41+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"http:\/\/worldscreen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sara Alessi\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/cazalet-chronicles-book-series-set-for-tv-adaptation\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/cazalet-chronicles-book-series-set-for-tv-adaptation\/\",\"name\":\"Cazalet Chronicles Book Series Getting TV Treatment - TVDRAMA\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2016-10-14T10:00:50+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2016-10-14T16:17:41+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/cazalet-chronicles-book-series-set-for-tv-adaptation\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/cazalet-chronicles-book-series-set-for-tv-adaptation\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/cazalet-chronicles-book-series-set-for-tv-adaptation\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Cazalet Chronicles Book Series Getting TV Treatment\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/\",\"name\":\"TVDRAMA\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvdrama\/#\/schema\/person\/3a30a856ec6d9cc2372bf054d26a0418\",\"name\":\"Sara Alessi\",\"description\":\"Sara Alessi is the associate editor of World Screen.
