Lords and Ladies,
a noble effort
has been made;
but you no longer have to
peer at titles
and count.
In the challenge to find Colin Firth film titles in my excerpt, one reader has been elevated to the
upper class and will receive a Jane Austen tote bag, a Mr. Darcy/Colin Firth poster, and a set of four pins.
ARAMINTA18
Of the 36 titles I intentionally included in the text,
Araminta18 identified 34
(and even noticed one of which I was unaware, Performance).
Honourable Mention goes to Jakki,
who had the next closest answer (30).
Although Jakki is not the star,
she will get a constellation prize.
(Yeah, I couldn't get through this post without a pun.)
As promised, the titles in the excerpt
will now be indicated in red.
Thanks to everyone else who
came, saw, but didn't quite conquer.
Cheers,
Joanne
