How cannot we love him? He loves reading and I just love the way he looks with glasses on! I have a thing for glasses so... I think RA should do more roles like this, I miss seing him in this lighter manner... My favourite scenes of HK are the one where he keeps coming back to the door and the one Geraldine is watching S&S.Lucianahttp://www.mrsthorntondarcy.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-27271083308340627092010-04-11T23:28:56.097+02:002010-04-11T23:28:56.097+02:00Harry is soooo swoonworthy. The fact that it's...Harry is soooo swoonworthy. The fact that it's the character closest to IRL RA doesn't help because Harry is so incredibly sweet and caring and funny and gorgeous and romantic and lovely and (a load of similar gushing adjectives). And he loves reading! Even Jill's Gymkhana! ;) How can you not just fall head over heels in love with him?Traxyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13249884092846934427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5114395886235179043.post-49094392916284498802010-04-11T13:00:56.299+02:002010-04-11T13:00:56.299+02:00Thank you for this fantastic RA Friday!

Tha...Goodness! I almost missed this. I was so busy.<br />Thanks, MG for this post. It certainly brought a a smile to my face. I love your RA Fridays. I'm still in search of this works here.

I do have a soft spot for VoD as my other love Sean Bean has also married Geraldine (only in a dream sequence and he was playing himself), his picture also spent an entire series above her desk next to Jesus of course.<br />However, I will always be a lover of John Thornton as I like the idea of being courted in the Victorian way. I find it difficult when reading N&S, which I dip into now and again, of expelling the image of RA and hearing his voice. Harry does come a close second for a modern day version.<br />I think RA likes to play anti his nature and personality it makes it more of a challenge for him. No matter I will still watch him.<br />It was with great sadness that I recently heard that Dawn French is splitting from her husband of 25 years Lenny Henry. <br />Loved this week’s RA Blog.

I figured he was some recognizable British hunk, but had no notion who. I love that show, and that scene in particular with the Sense and Sensibility references. I think I read somewhere that someone thought he should play Edward Ferrars - now it makes sense! I've almost finished Episode Two of North & South, and I have to say that I think I get it now. The pictures really don't do justice to him in action, lovely as they are.Alexa Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10086472405632748174noreply@blogger.com
