Boy, it has been a while since I posted a period drama dress game! Hope you enjoy guessing which period drama each dress is from and who is wearing it!

To Play: Look at the photos of dresses in period dramas below and guess what period drama each dress is from, and what actor playing what character is wearing each dress. Leave your guesses in a comment. I will respond with your score. Guess as many times as you wish. Answers will be posted next Saturday.

Scoring: One point for each correct period drama, actor and character named. A total of 36 points can be earned!
