after read the rave review on this site i buy this dvd . i love british ( period ) drama and and many favourite actor and actress be in these mini series ( jennifer ehle and paul eddington and toby stephen . ) . what can i say . it absolutely awful . there isn not anything redeem about it represent the plot be ridiculous and boring and the script be embarrass and all seem to be give the bad performance of their life . a mention by others and there be lot of delicate issue like adultery etc . and usually i be fine with it and but in these mini series all incident be just uninteresting and ridiculous . for the first time and i give a negative rating to british mini series . i be not even watch the second dvd . p. s. represent by the way and i be particularly disappointed with jennifer ehle and who i have love in each and every role ( pride and prejudice and possession and paradise road ) .
