~ Index to trifles, trivialities and tomfoolery ~

 

Hall of Fame honours some of the people who show up in multiple dramas and seem to define this genre either on screen or behind the scenes.

Period Motivational Posters (tweaking P&P, North & South, and others...)

Pride and Prejudice Duo Speech Saw this on Ribbons of Light and think you might like to check it out if you haven't already seen this funny interpretation of Pride and Prejudice. Apparently, they are not allowed to touch or look at each other as they give their Duo Speech - I just get a kick out of their dancing!

Pride and Prejudice in "twitterspeak".I am still confounded by the popularity of Twitter. I am also finding my brain trying to wrap around the fact that Jane Austen can be found there in various forms. Laurel Ann from Austenprose has reminded me that Jane would have probably loved to twit and tweet or whatever it is that one does on Twitter. I am still perplexed by it all, however this endeavour by "Mad" found Under the Mad Hat is quite amusing! She has summed up the plot of P&P in tweets. I am excessively diverted!
