...as always I guess, the ideal cast is a bit from here and a bit from there.
Agreed! I'm one of those who really enjoyed Emma1 for a lot of reasons. Mr. W is definitely the best, and Mrs. Elton is a treasure. Doran Godwin gets overly affected at times, but I still liked her. John Carson was great as Knightley, and I felt caught the flavor of his personality very well. The relationship between Emma and Knightley was also pretty true to form. Not perfect, but still very good!
