More on Pride & Prejudice
Posted by claresiobhan on Mar 29th, 2008
Am currently embarked on Bridget-Jones’s-Diary-induced Pride & Prejudice kick. Have watched BBC television version of P & P twice in the past two days. Have crush on Colin Firth and therefore cannot bring self to watch new theatrical version of P & P starring some other actor as Mr. Darcy. I beg you to forgive me, but am unable to speak normally due to excessive influence of Bridget Jones diary-speak and 19th century British diction. Are you not exceedingly diverted?

V. v. much understand gorging, crush-bordering-on-obsession for excessively handsome best Darcy ever (the other actor? Is sleeping), and bizarre throwback-style speech patterns… :)
