Just a fun thought experiment, Gentle Reader.
If X is my favorite character, what should I watch?
- Alexia ~ The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec
- Madame Lefoux ~ Tipping the Velvet
- Lord Akeldama ~ The Scarlet Pimpernel
- Biffy ~ Maurice
- Professor Lyall ~ Gosford Park
- Floote ~ Jeeves & Wooster
- Sophronia ~ All I Wanna Do
- Sidheag ~ 10 Things I Hate About You
- Agatha ~ Cranford
- Felix ~ Flirting
- Rue ~ Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries
- Prim ~ Cold Comfort Farm
- Quesnel ~ Real Genius
Characters I struggled with…
- Lord Maccon ~ Needs to be Scottish, obvs, but is Outlander too… Outlanderish? Thoughts?
- Ivy Hisselpenny ~ Ridiculous hats and extra silliness. I considered Stiff Upper Lips (hats not big enough).
- Dimity ~ As challenging as Ivy in her own sparkling way.
- Percy ~ He’s just so Percy, he wouldn’t approve of any of this.
- Soap ~ Too difficult! Save the Last Dance maybe?
Your suggestions welcome!

Lord Maccon Outlander is fine.
For Soap the Brannagh Much Ado (Soap as the Duke (Denzel Washington), Ivy Topsy Turvy (Japanese hats & wigs), Percy Enigma, Dimity Persuasion .
for Lord Maccon, Highlander has got to be the only choice. Scottish and immortal
There can only be one!
Ivy gets My Fair Lady. Oh the hat action.
I love Rue and Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries. I was thinking while I was reading Prudence that Rue and Phryne would get along very well.
My suggestions:
Ivy: Clueless
Dimity: Legally Blonde
