Another Period Drama Dress Game

We had a dress quiz a few weeks ago and I had some dress photos left over to decided so post another dress game.

To Play: Look at the 15 dresses below and leave a comment guessing which period drama the dress is from and who is wearing the dress. You may guess as many times as you'd like and I'll respond with your score. Answers will be posted next Saturday. 

Scoring: Two points for each correctly guessed period drama and character. Highest possible score is 60 points.
