Dorcas ends up with Allan Woodcourt???????
Well. Well, well, well, well, well.
Wow.
Heehee.
Ooooh, I can't believe I blundered on William and Peggy--especially considering they're one of the CUTEST period drama couples! *headdesk* And Fanny and Edmund... DUHHHHHHHH.
:P
Fun game, as always!
Shame, shame. I should have known that first photo; I have seen that movie several times. I knew I recognized the girl, but I thought it was only as an enchantress from BBC's Merlin.
11. I have not seen that particular version, but I have seen a version, but I don't think I could have gotten it after much thought although I should have.
I see I need to see Lark Rise to Candleford and Cranford and Return to Cranford (only perhaps for Hiddleston)
