I wish I had Emma-loving friends that would come to my house, eat microwave popcorn and drink the diet cokes and talk this one through while replaying favorite scenes (the ball). <br /><br />Also, I never watched Cranford, but my friend was telling me how upset her husband was that they had forgotten to record it, so I pointed them here for the link.

I have no TV channels, but Return to Cranford and Emma are both on my Amazon.com wish lists. I'm not sure I'm actually saving any money by not having TV channels when I feel the need to buy anything remotely British period dramaish.Scrappycookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07001266252200453287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13684790.post-2407927910888186252010-01-25T08:53:08.681-07:002010-01-25T08:53:08.681-07:00Thank you for the heads up on Cranford on PBS...I ...Thank you for the heads up on Cranford on PBS...I missed parts of it and fell asleep in others...I didn't want to have to wait for Netflix to send me one disc at a time either!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13684790.post-2654841535030758062010-01-25T08:15:45.706-07:002010-01-25T08:15:45.706-07:00Yeah!
