Lovely slide shows. I think Mr. Knightley looks a bit too young... Steamy Darcy

I must say I like the little I’ve been able to see of the new Emma. I’m not a “purist”, I think I could bear the “annoying bits” you talk about. But I’ll have to wait to give a proper evaluation. I read the ball scene was particularly exciting somewhere. I also read the watching figures were not so good, unfortunately. This is risky for period drama lovers like me! BBC adaptations are the best. I hope they won’t reduce their productions!

Once again your slides are gorgeous! I liked this episode overall. The ballroom scene was especially effective.

I think I’ve talked myself down to the point where I’m just happy there is a new Emma to watch (which is always a cause for rejoicing). We’ll see if my resolution holds through the end of the series.

There are so many Emma adaptations and none are completely satisfying. Let the attempts to perfect it on screen carry on – if nothing else we can all relish the felicity of disparaging them.

Gorgeous! Although I personally love this series, I think I understand why a lot of people are not.
