1) Jane Austen first followed by many of my favorites.
2) I rather look forward to the games. I also enjoy the film reviews. I have also perused the period films page numerous times as a reference point.
3) I can't think of one at this time
4) Perhaps some reviews of the western films and series you have listed on the blog period films page
5) Oh, for several years. Can't quite put a figure on it thought.
6) Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube
7) I truly do not know. But I do know I was very impressed upon first sight.
8) Just three? Haha. Anne of Green Gables/Road to Avonlea, nearly all classic westerns cause I can't name just one, Lark Rise, Rose Hill, Scarlet Pimpernell, Downton Abbey, oh okay I'll stop for now.
9) That's a tough one because I've nearly seen them all! I would like to see The Young Victoria.

God Bless!
P.S. - Much of your blog inspired me when I renovated my blog www.hearthandhometv.com several months ago. Thanks for the inspiration!
So, do we answer them in the comment box? I'd love to!
When you think about Old-Fashioned Charm what specific period dramas come to mind?
Death Comes to Pemberly, because that's your header. Persuasion 1995, because you love it. 'The Paradise' also comes to mind, because I've read your review so much. So yeah, many different ones!

I love anything Period Drama related, but personal updates are really lovely too! :-)

I'm not quite as interested in book reviews.

Have you seen 'the Book Thief'? I just saw it, and I'd love to read your opinions on it.

Ever since I got a blog, which was two years ago. I visited it VERY often since three years ago, though, but first as an Anonymous commenter. :-)

Blogger, Youtube, and Pinterest. I visit your Tumblr often, too, but cannot follow it as I am not on Tumblr.
How did you encounter Old-Fashioned Charm and what was your first thought on your first visit?
I found it through 'Elegance of Fashion' which I found through random Period Drama browsing, at the age of 13. I LOVED your blog immediately. You fascinated me, and the beautiful looks and posts made me very happy.

1) Pride & Prejudice, as well as Cranford come to mind. And Lark Rise To Candleford.
2) I love your movie reviews & also the glimpses into your personal life.
3) I don't take part in the quizzes much... but I still like to read them & see if I can get any off the top of my head....
4) Honestly, I think you've reviewed everything I can think of! I heard there is a new Anne of Green Gables movie coming out so that might be something to review in the future.
5) 2 years maybe? Longer? A good while anyways!
6) Just Blogger, right now. But I do go over & check out your Youtube as well.
7) I think through a friends blog. Maybe a blog link up? I don't remember!
8) Pride & Prejudice, North & South, and Cranford.
9) Well, the rest of the show Lark Rise To Candleford! Oh and Poldark. Can't think of a 3rd.
10) Maybe interviews with other lovers of old fashioned things? Not necessarily just bloggers, but those who use Instagram or Twitter of a FB page as well. However all the things you listed sound like fun~ couldn't pick just one!
(I blog over at www.bekahstyle.blogspot.com )
The period I enjoy is probably 1860-1920. I like film and book reviews and faith based posts. I am not sure how I came to this blog but I like it a lot. I really enjoy Jane Austen things. I enjoy modesty and wholesome things. Maybe some pioneer type postings that are beautiful. Kelly T.

Since I found your blog I fell so very enchanted with it and I'd love that nothing would change ... maybe it seems strange to you but if you have to do some changes I do trust in you and your good taste ... actually, I cannot give you any kind of advice or suggestion, I love it so as it is, forgive me !!!
Have a most beautiful end of your week
Daniela
