This video is awesome. You made a perfect job and the song is just the best to fit with it. I study History of the Art (19th century) so I was curious about this show. I discovered it some days ago and I just watched all the episodes in a row. Some détails aren't accurate with the historical facts but it's still a really good show.
For someone who loves Pre-Raphaelite art as much as I do, these clips are a feast for the eye if nothing else! Can anyone tell me if DESPERATE ROMANTICS going to be shown in the US?
You know, when I first watched this, I couldn't stop laughing; something about a period piece set to 80s synth seems like it shouldn't work, somehow. BUT YOU TOTALLY PULLED IT OFF. I mean, your editing is great, and it fits, even though it still seems brilliantly weird. Excellent choice and very well done!
Google Thomas Combe & Martha Combe,Holman Hunt spent time living with them in Oxford, Thomas Combe was a patron for Millais and Holman Hunt, the Light of the World was owned by the Combe's, great pity this story does not stick to historial facts.
Why can't the BBC get the props right for the period, bad wigs, language not right for the mid 19th century.Candles were the most expensive lighting, the artists are not well off at the start, look how many candles there are, this is a modern idea to have loads of candles in films, they think it gives an ambiance.
Would it somehow be possible to put the Desperate Romantics extras from the BBC website on You Tube? The problem is, it` s impossible to watch BBC I player outside the UK. And I would desperately like to see them :(
the screen writer of DR refers to the Brotherhood as the original punks and says there are parallels with Sid and Nancy and Rosetti and Lizzie Siddal - so perhaps the Sex Pistols for backing music?
Wow, again I wasn't thinking the song would fit and now I see I should just trust your judgement and run with it since it's great, again! I love your DR vids! *off to watch more*
I just found that out by viewing your other videos. They all are very well done and make me want to see the series. I love period dramas and anything about artists interests me. I hope it does come to BBC America or on DVD.
I enjoyed all the cute young actors. Good job on your video! I love that song. What is the name of the series? I recognised some of the actors. It looks to be very entertaining. I am in the US; can we get the series here?
thank god for history with tongue in cheek, it saves us from the boredom of soaps/talent shows, love the humour love the costumes love the whole vibe, rossetti being my fav, one liners to hold, as for the art, its down to your taste, not sure about the music, to me this dirty sexy, age needs a good solid rock music
I absolutely adore this show so I loved this video. I love Maniac and Annie the most, I think they are definately the best couple! I am sad the series is nearly over, but I hope you make more vids! xx
Agree with all your comments. My fave one liner: 'Impotence is our only hope' to which Rossetti replies 'Fred - write that down and make it our motto'. Genius!
Loving this vid - please keep them coming because I LOVE Desperate Romantics and frankly anything with the ridiculously gorgeous Aiden Turner in it is a bonus!!!
Great work-love the video! I'm enjoying every second of Desperate Romantics! Awesome programme,wonderfully cast with a great script-finally something worth license fee!!!can't wait for next ep!
Thanks, I really enjoyed that. I've been watching the show and it's the most enjoyable programme on the TV by a long way. It's one of those shows that makes the licence fee worthwhile.
Aargh! Guys I'm quite desperate 'cause in Italy I can't see this show....:( How can I do that? However, wonderful vid...the song suits very well! good job!
have you tried BBC iplayer ? it's excellent, that's how I've been watching it but I'm not sure if you can get i abroad :) I know the DVD is coming out in september though if that helps :) Great video! I know it was based on real events etc.. But I've researched and it's actually pretty acurate! Brilliant
OMG I LOVE THIS PROGRAMME! WHAT AN AMAZNG PROGRAMME! i just wish it wasnt just 6 episodes! i wish it was like 6 series! AND I LOVE LOVE LOVE ROSSETTI! <3 <3
Great video! I love this series already, especially Rossetti (who is my favourite PRB painter in real life anyway) x i look forward to more of your videos as the series continues!
