Any idea why he’s allowed to touch with bare hands that very valuable prayer book?
Why don't these people have gloves on while handling priceless books?
The fact that the outer walls are still standing is a tribute to the original builders, masons, brick layers and carpenters as well as the fire fighters!
All these old houses need sprinkler systems.
I was here in 1998. 3 years after the Pride and Prejudice 1995. Loved the look of this place on the outside. Perfect Pemberley. I also saw Chatsworth that year. Amazing Estate for a Duke. Lyme was more suited for Mr. Darcy. Grandson of an Earl but not the Earl. Chatsworth is home to a Duke much higher. A prince can live in Chatsworth. You see it in Downton Abbey. I saw that house too in 1998. Home of an Earl but if they visit a Duke's home, the highest of the aristocratic homes, the home would be much bigger like double or triple than Downton or Lyme even though they are huge too. Different categories. Pride and Prejudice did the houses so carefully how it should be down. Longbourne I saw too in 1998. Grande for a lower gentry or landed gentleman. Gentry. 2005 made the Bennets look so poor and not well kept in appearance and Mr Darcy's home way too high. All done in my opinion not correct. Well the 1995 version filmed the miniseries like 6 to 9 months. Planned for many years before they got the go ahead from the BBC. Move was not prepared and got the go ahead and had a few weeks to get everything done. Even the director was frustrated with everything in the 2005 version or rushing and he had to make a movie when the 1995 version's bar was set so high or too high. I do not think anyone can do that adaptation better than the 1995 version. Just cannot.
Me encanta estudiar historia aprendí mucho 👍🌹
Wouldn’t a sprinkler system be prudent?
I wonder how the little boy’s mother/maid ended up at Lyme?
I have read that these green houses referred to as Succession Houses. I always assumed it referred to when the fruits ripened at different times. But making many fruits available for the owner.

Too much jumping around in this episode
Imagine that this was so recent but now your history is irredeemably racist. You're not allowed to have any pride in your heritage
Uhm, the amount of money from mines didn't fall. What changed was taxes skyrocketed for inherited wealth. Over here it hits family farms hard & they sold.
Aghhhh, no gloves on when touching the book…?
Disappointed. Hoped to get a history lesson on the real life Pemberley, got instead a lecture on artifact restoration.
It's a shame about Canarven Castle. So much beauty
