I recognize a few faces here... still think Keeley Hawes doesn't look good in those historical dramas. Really hope the remake of LYNLEY is better than the original.
ReplyDeleteThat hairdo and makeup defo aren't flattering on her.
DeletePoor Keely does look like she's aged 10 years there. But I guess being ugly can come with the job sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI am always surprised when I read somewhere that she is younger than us.
DeleteI know a few blog buddies who will love Miss Austen. They love anything Austen.
ReplyDeleteI personally cannot stand her and I say that as a professor of English literature LOL
DeleteI'm only watching King and Conqueror from this lot.
