Than you again, Miss Laurie -- this is such fun! :)
And here are my January tag answers: http://ladyofanorien.blogspot.com/2016/02/period-drama-challenge-tag-answers.html
Unfortunately I haven't had time yet to write a review this January. I'm super busy with work at the moment, but things are going to slow down soon, so yay!
1. I finished watching Poldark
2. That's a tough choice between Bleak House and Our Mutual Friend, but maybe I'd go for Our Mutual Friend in the end, because I really love the romances in that
3. Downton Abbey I think, because the house plays such a big role in the series
4. I wouldn't mind being Aunt Gardiner from P&P. Looking in from the sidelines and all that...
5. I need to choose which series to watch now that I've finished Poldark, maybe Home Fires or ANZAC girls?
Love the tag questions! Here are my answers:

It's been loads of fun thus far! Here are my answers to the tag :)

So far this month, I've reviewed The Mark of Zorro (1974) here, and Shane (1953) here.
And I'd like to let you and the other participants know that I'm holding a giveaway right now here -- I'm giving away four western movies on DVD, all of which would totally be great to review for the Period Drama Challenge :-) It runs through February 25th.
I also reviewed Risen in February, and I thought I was going to get one more review done before the end of the month, but that's not looking likely, so oh well. More for March!
