Note: While Romola also starred in period set films Vanity Fair (2004), Angel (2007) and Mary Bryant (2005) I very strongly warn against having anything to do with those films and did not use them in this game. Mary Bryant especially is very inappropriate.

Which of their period dramas have you seen?
Goodness gracious! I cannot believe that I forgot Jane Eyre! It's sometimes very difficult to think of movies when you're trying too hard, if you know what I mean. It also surprises me that I neglected to mention As You Lke It- but oh well! I too would most definately NOT recommend Angel. It's terribly unpleasant to see dear Romola playing such a horrid character!
ReplyDeleteThank you for such a splendid game!
I was going to mention The Hollow Crown for Alun Armstrong and Tom Hiddleston....dunno why I didn't. *shrugs*
ReplyDeleteYou haven't seen War Horse? *GASP* You must! It's got some teary moments, but it's an incredible film. Definitely one of my favorites! :)
I guess my answers did'nt come through. What a pity. I got a bunch right, too. Well, it was fun racking my brain, anyway;)(P&P, Cranford, what's that other one?! DD, Downton abbey, Yeah, but what's that guy's name?! Why can't I remember what ELSE I've seen her in! I KNOW her name, I KNOW I do...BUT WHAT IS IT?!?)
ReplyDeleteAnyway, it was fun=)
