Great idea, for any general rewatches which we can have. And The Crown ones wiill go into their respective episode threads.

Or we can use this thread as well.

That's what I mean Ina

Having a general rewatch thread ONLY for the planning of it.
And when you watch, for the Crown in their threads and for other stuff in this thread.

That way you're sure everyone on the board is aware that there will be a rewatch

Welcome carrie.suze!

ina_am · 03-02-2017, 02:05 PM

Brilliant then

We can totally go for that thread

Hey carrie.suze

Aw, yes, Matthew is a brilliant actor! It was wonderful to see him and Claire in Little Dorrit

Awesome Nerds · 03-02-2017, 02:20 PM

Sounds great! I will await the thread for discussion of plans

girl under the floor · 03-02-2017, 02:31 PM

Who's making it

My laptop is being slow

Awesome Nerds · 03-02-2017, 02:45 PM

Ina?

So I'm the read-first type, now looking into Little Dorrit, that book is loooong

And the DVD I had to reserve it, who knows what will happen

ina_am · 03-02-2017, 02:50 PM

Paula or Rose, please, you go for it

I am about to go to bed in a moment

I haven't read the book. The show is about 13/14 episodes as far as I remember. Do you have it on dvd?

Awesome Nerds · 03-02-2017, 03:04 PM

I need to do something now but I'll see about it after

I don't have it, no, I put a reservation on it at the library

ina_am · 03-02-2017, 03:06 PM

Great

!!!

When you get the dvd , please let me know, I would like to see it again

Awesome Nerds · 03-02-2017, 03:13 PM

Absolutely

I'll be grabbing the book tonight, though it'll go after a few others I have lined up

ina_am · 03-02-2017, 03:16 PM

Fantastic

It's set in 1910 so it falls in this genre.

Awesome! It's my new favorite show on The Hallmark Channel.

Yes.

She & Mark Rylance were the standouts in that show for me. Jonathan Pryce & Damian Lewis are in it too.

I've got Little Dorrit on dvd, as well as being a Claire Foy fan, there's the dreamy Matthew Macfadyen in it too, couldn't resist.

You made your way over here, Carrie.

Thanks for the YT clip. This is one show that I really need to watch already.

How many seasons/episodes is it?

girl under the floor · 03-03-2017, 03:33 AM

I think I started watching Wolf Hall but it was too slow paced for me

If that was Wolf Hall. Can't remember

ina_am · 03-03-2017, 08:22 AM

Agreed. Mark Rylance was amazing in Little Dorrit

I haven't seen WH yet.
