    Laurel Ann, thank you for sharing this video! It definitely requires no explanation! :) I agree with the lady, what a great job to have…watching Colin Firth!

    That is an amazingly well done likeness. Most often any pictures I’ve seen of waxwork figures look like waxwork figures, but this is so well done it doesn’t look at all creepy. All that Firth gazing paid off.

    Oh my goodness, what a handsome man…even in wax!

    Just put him in my living room and everything will be fine. As I always say, the man can definitely wear a suit! Melinda
