I'm a Jane Austen fan and thoroughly enjoyed the first episode of Lost In Austen yesterday evening. A very clever concept well executed. I'm not really in the best position to comment on Elliot Cowan (being male and straight) but my first reaction was that Colin Firth made a better Darcy. What I particularly enjoyed were many of the script lines given to Mr. Bennett. Looking forward to the remaining three episodes as well as revisiting your blog.Troyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05279890687481412751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8163853508689473524.post-68809968559060622522008-09-04T21:22:00.000+01:002008-09-04T21:22:00.000+01:00I've just been watching Lost in Austen as I Sky+ed...I've just been watching Lost in Austen as I Sky+ed it.
