I greatly enjoyed watching the latest BBC adaption of a classic (Emma in this case*), out of all the things that the BBC does, these adaptions, be they Jane Austin, Charles Dickens, the Bronte sisters... are done incredibly well.
I will admit to not having read the book and therefore didn't know what was going to/supposed to happen, but I did feel that it was fairly obvious that at some point during the story our heroine would realise who it was she was in love with... I was starting to get worried when she still didn't seem to realise herself when we were getting near to the end of the last episode but thankfully she finally twigged and we got our happily ever after. Thinking about it... four weddings and a funeral... that sounds familier...
I don't know why, but no matter how twee I do actually like for these dramas to have happilly ever afters, especially after what had been a very happy series with only possibly a little too much giggling... but that's not always such a bad thing!!
