From Nadia comes this lovely musical tribute to wet period dramas. Is there anyone not thankful for Wet Colin Firth?

Love it! Totally worth being up at 4am for 🙂
Oh, awesome! Love it – thanks for posting this! It’s that sort of day and I just found out my ex has a new girlfriend – I hate to be a horrific cliche but Mr Darcy & co are just what I need today. Well, either that or Godzilla-type city-destroying mayhem. =(
It’s edited so well to the music also! =D
Richard Armitage. Yum.
ROMANCELANDIA, YOU WIN AT THE INTERNETZ
Oh yays I love this!
Was waiting to see mr. darcy step out of the water and walk across the meadow at pemberly in the dripping shirt—best part of epi 4, though.
Who and what show is that at 1.11? i must see this please!!
Give me a man in cravat and brocade vest . . . mmmm.
Awesome.
Outstanding video! I agree! Nothing like a man in a cravat and brocade vest riding a horse……mmmmm
cravat, brocade vest and TALL BOOTS! O yeah, works for me.
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm….
I’m sorry, did you guys say something? I was … um … distracted.
word ver win = research69
Good gracious…thank you. Just…THANK YOU!
Hallelujah! That is all.
Yummy! And there were several that I have not seen so I am deeply grateful for the list of titles at the end. Working on one … last … paper, and then I think I’ll be blissing out with some videos as a reward for completed homework.
Thank you!
Silly yumminess was exactly what I needed this morning. Especially with glimpses of Alan Rickman, Richard Armitage, and Benedict Cumberbatch in there.
Dry or wet, I’d rather have Alan Rickman to a wet Colin Firth.
That was wonderful! Now I have a list of movies to watch!!
Mmm….Ioan Gruffudd, Alan Rickman and Colin Firth. I think I will be having a movie fest this weekend.
Colin Firth, You had me at that..I mean in college we had it taped, and would watch Him walk up that hill soaking wet over and over. And he still looks yummy today!
Definitely thankful for a wet Colin Firth but sooo disappointed this didn’t include him walking out of the water all wet! Maybe I missed it…maybe I’ll just have to watch it a few times more to make sure it’s not there! But thanks (plus I have always loved that song)!
Amazing! Colin Firth is just…fantastic.
Can we identify all the movies? I saw Emma, Sense and Sensibility, both Pride and Prejudices, North and South, and what I assume is Amazing Grace (the Ioan Gruffud one). What are the others? Help a girl out! The swordfighting one looks intense (and delicious).
I *love* this … I’m also going to be sharing it everywhere. 🙂
@Melissandre – I think I noticed a list at the end of the piece, but as I had OD’d on man-candy, not 100% sure. I know I saw Richard Armitage, and in addition to the list you have, I’m pretty sure there was the other P&P, Northanger Abbey, and – thrilling to me – Shadow of the North. I’m not sure what else, though.
@Melissandre: From the YouTube info of clips in the video:
Amazing Grace 2006
Casanova 2005
Emma 1996
NorthAnger Abbey 2007
North & South 2004
Persuasion 2007
Pride & Prejudice 1995, 2005
Sense & Sensibility 1996, 2008
The Shadow in the North 2007
Wives & Daughters 1999
Damn, I forgot to mention—the sword fight is from the 2008 version of Sense and Sensibility, I’m pretty sure. 🙂
Yes, there’s a list:
Amazing Grace
Casanova
Northanger Abbey
Sense and Sensibility
Pride and Prejudice (x2)
Wives and Daughters
North and South
The Shadow in the North
Emma
Personally, I wish that Wet Colin Firth hadn’t happened. Though I did absolutely love the parody of it in Lost in Austen.
Fabulous, thank you! nice to see gorgeous Neil Morrisey there!
THIS IS WHY THE INTERNET WAS INVENTED, FULL STOP.
loved it !!
and thanks for the list ;—
Help! Which film had the desert scenes? I can’t place it and I thought I had seen all of these movies.
Mmmm – so thankful…
The desert scene was from Wives & Daughters, the best Gaskell adaptation ever. Lovely editing, but nothing in my mind beats this version of “It’s Raining Men:”
Be still my beating heart!
It’s definitely costume drama day for me tomorrow.
How awesome is it that one of the tags for this post is “wet?”
MOAR WET POSTS PLEEZ.
Hot, hot, hot!
Ok, the scene at 1:01 where the guy on horseback rushes downhill to help the damsel who just tripped down it? I didn’t recognize that one and couldn’t see who was playing our yummy rescuer.
Colin Firth. And Ioan Gruffudd. And Alan Rickman. Be still my heart….
Awesome.
I finished rewatching the BBC adaptation of Our Mutual Friend last night and there are men in river and rain shots from that. Mmmm, Mortimer Lightwood…
I’m glad they included North and South and the marvelous image of cotton fluff hanging in the air. I love that miniseries as much as the Pand P one, which is saying something.
Just thank you. Thank you..
