Okay, realize that this review comes from having watched the 1995 PandP Over and Over and Over. Surprisingly quite good! Elizabeth Garvie does a good job portraying Elizabeth’s wit, Jane Bennet is appropriately pretty and sweet, and the costumes (while nothing to get overly excited about) are fine. David Rintoul is, however, not the best Darcy – he does a good job seeming/looking pompous and conceited in the first half, but never really mellows — and let’s just say that his pants seem to fill out rather TOO well (what is a blushing, virginal Regency maid supposed to look at when there’s such a view?).
