Wives & Daughters: Wallpaper, Friends Only Banners, and Icons

[olde_fashioned]

Another perennial favourite of mine is Wives & Daughters. I guess I've been in the mood for Gaskell lately, and it's easy to forget how good Molly and Roger go together this series is. ;-D

Twenty-two icons this time, mostly of Molly, a couple of Cynthia, Lady Harriet (who totally rocks, in my very humble opinion) and a few of Roger Hamley. I also made a wallpaper and matching friends only banner, with complimentary icons.

As always, my icons are not bases, please credit/comment if taking, and enjoy!

My pleasure! :-) Hehe, I'm enjoying these comments too much to begrudge you any amount of time, long though it may be. I'm just happy to see a reply from you in my inbox! :-D (and I was flattered by your own similar remark, btw, thankyouverymuch! *curtsies*) And you must forgive me for swatting the ball so rapidly back into your court, but I just happened to be on just now, and read your message...

I confess, I can't think of another way to "gracefully" retire the Joker, without having him killed off "in passing" off screen, which, quite frankly, would be a very great shame. Such an epic villain (as well as an epic performance) deserves nothing less than a spectacular death, and I'm very curious to see how Christoper Nolan & Co. tie up the strings.

I've heard nothing but rumours as to the Penguin or the Riddler. Did you hear about the Michael Caine "confirmation", the Nolan "denial" of having any designs on either? Johnny Depp as the latter and Philip Seymour Hoffman as the former articles abound on Google. Not that I've been reading them, mind. *halo* I have an LJ friend who's boyfriend is quite into Batman comics, and subsequently she is as well I believe, but as for myself this latest "Nolanverse" is the most genuine interest I've had in the Batman kingdom for years and years. I do have to confess rather shamefacedly to watching the "new animated adventures" as a kid with my brother, as well as Batman Beyond ("Batman of the Future" abroad), but I'm sure you'll forgive me for that, lol...

*beams* Hey hey -- *I* am just as delighted to find someone who agrees with me in the Rachel Dawes Department!! ;-P It's not as if she doesn't know that Bruce is already going through so much stress with saving the world! Exaaaaactly. Oh, gee, Bruce, you're stressed out? Tired? Upset/frustrated? Gee, lemme make your life MORE complicated!! Aarrg!! Oh, and you know what, my brother and I were talking about TDK (again) the other day, and I had a bit of an epiphany. If Rachel doesn't want anything (romantically) to do with Bruce, and if she loves Harvey so much, then WHY is she kissing Bruce in his apartment??? If she doesn't want him, fine, but then quite giving the poor man mixed signals!!

And as for acting, I've never tried it, and most likely never will. The very thought terrifies me! The biggest thing, for me, would be having to kiss strange men. 8-/

Oh. My. GAWSH. That Jane Austen's Batman link you sent me was FANTASTIC! Remind me next time not to eat dinner whilst reading your comments, haha. No seriously, thank you heaps and heaps for that -- it was so hilariously funny, that I'm going to be cross-posting it here just as soon as I get a chance. That's a scream! Thank you so much for sharing it. :-D

I've only seen the Anthony Andrews version and the Leslie Howard version, which, surprisingly, isn't as bad as one who has seen Gone with the Wind might imagine. I've yet to see the Richard Grant version, as I was afraid it would turn out to be corny and/or flat. What did you think of it?

"Angophiles" is, I'm fully convinced, just a synonym for "persons with exceptional good taste." lol. ;-P

Yes, exactly! Please someone explain to me why someone with a resume and social circle as brilliant as EG's, would be doomed to obscurity until rescued by the BBC? It defies the imagination, or at least mine.

And again, you've managed to put my own feelings down as your own. I do so love strong character development, good background personalities as well as leading ones, and illuminating glimpses inside the aforementioned persons' minds and ways of thinking. (actually, back to W&D again, I was rereading the parts pertaining to Mr. Preston a while back, and he's quite a puzzle, himself, you know. He's very interesting, and I'm not sure if he's supposed to be a total villain or a somewhat sympathetic character.)
