It was hard to find videos on Austen mothers so I gathered a few here for Mother's Day and I hope that everyone has a great and lovely day!



1.Priggles

Mr Darcy and Mrs Bennet
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X32yXKatVJk
-- this one was hilarious in concept I am guessing a play on Titanic and the film characters age difference.


2. jiclark
Mrs Bennett!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCn2NF8LDZk

Now for something completely different a high school play based on Pride and Prejudice I thought it was fun and should be included.


3. Chicawapa
Lost In Austen - We meet Lady Catherine De Bourgh - Episode 3, Part 3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=145eofp876k
--Interesting enough and never noticed it until now Lindsay Duncan who plays Lady Catherine also played Mrs. Price in Mansfield Park! How interesting is that! She plays a very interesting Lady Catherine



4. mpavsweet
P&P-Love and Marriage
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMTDHufLM6I
--If only Youtube would have left the music originally selected on "Love and Marriage" by Frank Sinatra but in any case a great show and effort by the poster if you want the effect duplicate your screen and put this on and minimize it and watch the video

SENSE & SENSIBILITY - BBC (1981) Mrs Ferrars
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mWlZ0UHpj8
- An original film clip very rare to get a show of Mrs. Ferrars mother of Edward and Robert and Mrs. Dashwood as I couldn't get any clips of Gemma Jones or Janet McTeer. Many thanks to this poster for this lovely clip


6. LadyViolet7
Hugh Laurie in Sense and Sensibility ~ Mrs. Palmer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8T53_req48&feature=related
Again no clips on Mrs. Palmer or Imelda Staunton but as good as I get and wonderful to see as I too love Hugh Laurie in this


7. jellojellybeangirl
Fanny Dashwood's Music Video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wapc1pZx0lw
-- Original video very unexpected but lovely as I never thought anyone else was amused by this character as much as me. I have the video at home and laugh everytime I watch it.


8. Blissblissbliss87
Sense and Sensibility 2008- The Wonderful Fanny
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvXnnFVKZjw
-- Another fan of Fanny Dashwood in another version of S&S Claire Skinner was also very demure and classic villainess comedy

9. bluebell1225
Sense and Sensibility: F Major
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VONWz28NKSQ
-- A classic moment captured here Elizabeth Spriggs at her best as Mrs. Jennings mother of Mrs. Palmer

10. E5D7S
Pride and Prejudice 1940, 1995, 2005 - comparison 16 - Lady Catherine de Bourgh
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cz7YOtWo0Mk
Interesting composition as it compares all versions of Lady Catherine, myself my favourite still is Barbara Leigh Hunt as her haunting stare and haughty manner makes me as stiff as Elizabeth. But I had her in mind when Pride and Prejudice and Zombies I swear I nearly died laughing as I read as I pictured Barbara in all black ninja wear ;)


All of these are in no particular order other than how I found them as it took a lot of searching for what I was looking for. It was a pity I could not find more of them as I could not find all the Austen mothers.

Thank you to all the above nominees and hope that our members will be around this summer as there will be more and please recommend the centre to all your friends.

Stella :)
