Thanks for listening (unlike Dave).
The most shocking moment in all of recorded Pride and Prejudice:
Seriously, guys, this is how you do Wickham:
He had one 5 minute video to get himself across and he did it in spades!

‘O Canada!’ just took on a whole new meaning.
We put the “Ah!” in Canada.
I put mayonnaise (and mustard) on my hot dogs too. I don’t think it’s an uncommon thing. Ikea’s hot dog condiment station has ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise pumps (remember when they used to have relish pumps? I think they got rid of it because it kept clogging up) and Japadog’s teriyaki-mayonnaise dog is their best seller.
By the way, I recently learned how good Vegenaise is. I would recommend it to people who aren’t even on a vegan diet.
Nina’s got my back!
If Dave’s favourite Wickham can be from a web series, then my favourite Lizzy just might be the one played by Aishwarya Rai in “Bride and Prejudice” where she’s called Lalita. Actually the whole movie is nicely cast, and the high and low comedy characters from Austen’s novel translate well into a modern east-meets-west Bollywood-flavoured flick.
