There are only three days left for suggestions! If you have a suggestion for the poll, make your suggestion now! (or soon)
God Bless,
Thanks for adding Danielle De Barbarac.
ReplyDeleteIn the book Daniel Deronda, they spell her name Mirah, a Hebrew name meaning light. Just thought I would let you know.
ReplyDeleteJodhi May did a pretty good job as MIrah; but she was a character that I believe is pretty hard to do justice to. As always I believe the book was much, much better; though I do enjoy period dramas!
Ella,
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
Mademoiselle Christine,
Thank you for that! I hadn't realized that I had put it in wrong. It's all fixed now. Thanks again!
Perhaps Caddy Jellyby & Lady Dedlock from Bleak House; Miss Buck, Lady Maud Holland, Lady Agnes Holland, Lady Persephone Towne, Mrs. Thackeray, Rachel Perlmutter, & Ivy Morris from Upstairs Downstairs; Lady Mary, Lady Edith & Lady Sybil Crawley, the Dowager Countess Grantham, Mrs. Isobel Crawley, Gwen, Anna, Daisy, Mrs. Hughes, Mrs. Patmore, even Miss O'Brien?! from Downton Abbey?? Just thought I would suggest a few! ;)
ReplyDeleteOr you could even have a tournament of the older ladies from period films, in the future. Some of them are very well loved characters.
Mademoiselle Christine,
ReplyDeleteI'll accept all of those except O'Brien since she was more of a villain. Lady Mary, Lady Edith, and Lady Sybill are already in the running. Thanks!
