Bless you, you are so right! (And Colin Firth does an incredible job, wouldn't you agree?)

P&P has stood the test of time for over 200 years; I doubt anyone will remember Edward and Jacob 200 years from now.

Plus, Darcy is a real man. :D (As in, human XP.)

A lot of guys actually like Austen men upon acquaintance because while they may not be rescuing ladies from oncoming missiles, they live in a world where they have to know just the right thing to say in a world surrounded by women- and deal with real life issues. They're real men, real role models, not vampires, werewolves, Superman, or Bruce Willis. XP

The dance has the same name as the song, Mr. Beveridge's Maggot. (We just danced this at my monthly English country dance, and the caller explained that a maggot was a fanciful thought. Speaking of which, you should check out the Country Dance and Song Society to find out what's available in your area! I love that we can still dance like this 200 years after Pride and Prejudice.

Beautiful, just beautiful. I wish we danced like that today. What is that dance called, I wonder?

to stay on topic though i love this scene in the miniseries, i had opportunity of visiting the ballroom in BATH it was the best experience imagining the room filled with people at such a social event dancing, afterwards i visited jane austen museum there and bought "persuasion" bbc dvd for 25£ but  i didnt care i was just stoked at being in same town ,walking same streets and visiting places my favourite author did!
