Sorry there is only one Mr Darcy, and thats Mathew.

I think it’s one of these infinite arguments people can have: which Darcy is the best Darcy?

I myself like them all, each actor giving a different interpretation (subtle or not) of the character, but it’s just my opinion :)

Filming begins on Ripper Street series two

Filming begins on Ripper Street series two:

Small article (no spoilers) by What’s on TV with Matthew talking about the second season:

A second series of the Victoria crime drama Ripper Street has started filming in Dublin.

The BBC One hit series, set in the grim environment of London’s Whitechapel, has reunited lead actors Matthew Macfadyen, Jerome Flynn and Adam Rothenberg as Victorian crime-fighters Inspector Reid, Sergeant Drake and Captain Jackson.

Matthew said: “It’s fantastic to begin shooting in Dublin again for the second series of Ripper Street - and to be reunited with much of the wonderful cast and crew from last year. Also to be reunited with my bowler hat - I’d missed it.

“The show’s creator Richard Warlow has given us two wonderful, strange and unsettling opening episodes, teeming with the fierce and fragile life of Victorian Whitechapel.”

As the 19th Century enters its final decade, the streets teeter on the brink of moral collapse, and nowhere is the declining British Empire’s problems felt more keenly than in its dark heart: the East End of London. Myanna Buring returns as brothel madam Long Susan, while Joseph Mawle joins the cast as the corrupt and amoral Inspector Jebediah Shine, here to test the good men of Leman Street to their limits.

Series two of Ripper Street will screen in 2014.

bitter-sweet-symphony-89:

“Minnie was there, alone. She had some roses in her hand, and seemed to have stood still on seeing him, waiting for him. Her face was towards him, and she appeared to have been coming from the opposite direction.[…] As Clennam said that it was his favourite way, he felt her hand falter on his arm, and saw the roses shake. ‘Will you let me give you one, Mr Clennam? I gathered them as I came out of the garden. Indeed, I almost gathered them for you, thinking it so likely I might meet you. Mr Doyce arrived more than an hour ago, and told us you were walking down.’ […] He reassured her, took her hand as it lay with the trembling roses in it on his arm, took the remaining roses from it, and put it to his lips. […] He put the roses in his breast and they walked on for a little while, slowly and silently, under the umbrageous trees.[…] When he had walked on the river’s brink in the peaceful moonlight for some half an hour, he put his hand in his breast and tenderly took out the handful of roses. Perhaps he put them to his heart, perhaps he put them to his lips, but certainly he bent down on the shore and gently launched them on the flowing river. Pale and unreal in the moonlight, the river floated them away. […] While the flowers, pale and unreal in the moonlight, floated away upon the river; and thus do greater things that once were in our breasts, and near our hearts, flow from us to the eternal seas.”

Charles Dickens, Little Dorrit, Book One, Ch. 28, Nobody’s Dissapearance

“Perod costumes? It wasn´t the first time. It´s part of being an actor dressing up. The costumes were made exactly as they were at that time. They were great, make you walk and move in the right way.”
