Favorite Character of the Opposite (or same) Sex
Whichever floats your boat, let's hear it, and why. Maybe it's St. John Rivers, or Mr. Bingley (or Dowager Viscountess Dalrymple, no judging).
I'll start: Mr. Rochester - Jane Eyre, Professor Friedrich Bhaer - Little Women, and Colonel Christopher Brandon - Sense and Sensibility. As you can see, I prefer the older gentlemen ... I like the seasoned ones who have made their mistakes, will pick me up in their phaeton and thank the lord every day he gave them a second chance at happiness. I raise my cup of earl grey to these gents.

I love Mr. Rochester! I also love Orson Welles playing him- an unlikely crush, I know!!
I don't know how to pick favorites! I do love Lizzy Bennett, as far as female characters go. She's so witty and I love wit:)
I'm re-reading Emma right now. If I lived in Highbury, I know I'd have a thing for Mr. Knightly- I like how he gives Emma a hard time:) She deserves it! I have to admit I feel a lot of sympathy for poor Jane Fairfax- I relate a little because I'm kind of shy and reserved, also.

Jeremy Northam, yummo. And I loved Gabriel Burne as Professor Bhaer. I could always relate more to Bronte ladies (Anges Grey, Villette, Jane Eyre), I root for plain girls, yeah!

I always related to Elinor Dashwood- having to be the responsible, self-contained sister while the younger sister is a drama queen!

I've become a big Agatha Christie fan- I like that early 1950's England time period.
I also love the Agatha Christie's Ms. Marple series that PBS Mystery! had on last year- it's seriously fun to watch! The clothes and sets (and people) are all gorgeous and the stories are a bit racier than original Ms. Marple stories, lol!

Yes- I've gotten most of them from Netflix- I like the series with Geraldine McEwan as Ms. Marple.
I also LOVE Foyle's War- a British WWII mystery series. What is it with me and British mysteries, LOL?

I really enjoyed the 2002 Forsyte Saga (mini-series). And Then There Were None is my fave Agatha Christie story, although Hallowe'en Party was good too. I think that was Hercule Poirot.
