<p>Since we were talking about British acting, I thought I would mention Cranford, a 6 part mini series currently running on television in the UK on the BBC with Judi Dench, Imelda Staunton, Julia McKenzie, Michael Gambon and loads more of the “best of British” actors. It’s a really fabulous series and being hailed as the best thing since the BBC’s 1993 Pride and Prejudice. Definitely a must see, I absolutely love it and it comes out on DVD next year.
