What happens

Anne of Avonlea is a 1975 British television miniseries, produced by the BBC as a sequel to the 1972 miniseries Anne of Green Gables. It is based on the novels Anne of Avonlea (1909) and Anne of the Island (1915) by Lucy Maud Montgomery, both sequels to Montgomery's 1908 novel Anne of Green Gables. This version was directed by Joan Craft, with Kim Braden in the role of Anne. Both had previously worked on the 1972 adaptation of the preceding novel. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
