This just in from Janeite Mae – the BBC has a trailer for the new Emma now available online for viewing: go to the BBC here, and scroll through the carousel of new productions and click on “Emma” for a few quite lovely scenes [check out all the others as well – quite the feast! – this carousel idea is amazing!]
Thanks Mae for the heads-up!

Deb – no images, just a description of Emma with a small photo of Romola. I must be mussing something. Is this viewable to people outside of the UK?

yes, it took me a minute to get this too! – thinking it was in the description – and yes, it does look lovely [but I still think Richard Armitage would have made a better Knightley!] – and what ever is that crying scene all about between Emma and Knightley? – I fear a mucking-up of the book is at hand!

I was wondering about the crying scene, too!!! HMMMMM!
Garrow’s Law looks good. My two favorite things…period costumes and crime drama. Who knew I’d find them both in one show?! :D

I totally agree with Janeite Deb: Richard would have been a superb Knightley. Never mind, he will soon give us new great acting performances. Have you read his last interview? As for this new BBC Emma adaptation, I want to wait before saying anything.

There’s a new recycled costumes website that has already identified a pelisse from Emma, and it hasn’t even aired yet! Here’s the link

Hi Janeite Mae! – thank you for siting that website – it is quite funny to see these same outfits show up time and again – very good eyes on the viewers who pick these things up! – and what a closet to get lost in!

I love Jonny Lee Miller, but Richard Armitage as Knightley would be too much for my poor little heart.
