Thanks!
This was first on Lady Russel/Susan Fleetwood in the 1995 verion of Persuasion that Alexandra Byrne did her finest period costumes for. Have just seen it again in the Refinery29’s “Mr. Malcolm’s list”. think it was on Zara Martin as the lady dropping her purse. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/6e0837f8f4c8c074f2a34da4ee14fe4977a96183bafb9f6598f388b10c477d0c.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ec4f7ec40287163288da40e8f40c4732fb407e854dc7bcf9ff0979a6f57a27ba.jpg
These are great, Anna. Isn’t that pink pelisse familiar?
Edit- I forgot to turn off auto-correct on my new iPad. It changed pelisse to pelvises, lol.
Thanks Bri!
The character played by Harriet Walter in From Time to Time is Lady Gresham.
Thanks! 🙂
Harriet Walter plays Lady Gresham in FTTT.
Wonderful, thank you so much for this!
Thank you! This is great!
oh just one more thing: i’ve just realized by looking at your page that the bonnet mrs elton (christina cole) is wearing in the above photo is also worn by anna madeley as marianna becombe in anne lister.
this one is also worn by an extra in the secret diary of anne lister. by the way: the black dress anne lister/maxine peake is wearing in this scene and throughout the movie was also worn by mamie gummer as sally smith adams in the last episode (“peacefield”) of john adams. more reused costumes shrewesbury lasses and i have found in “anne lister” so far are listed here:

Anna and I both spotted this one yesterday in clip from BBC’s 2009 Emma. Here is Christina Cole as Mrs. Elton.
