The third act, OH MY GOD. Talk about ratcheting the tension up to 11. 'They wouldn't do that to the kids' was like my mantra to get me through, and even then I believed they would go through with it. It looked so hopeless.
Ah, see, I've seen the Keira Knightly version of P&P and unfortunately hold it against him, despite him being wonderful in In My Father's Den and knowing that it's blatantly unfair not liking him just because he's not Colin Firth. I completely agree about Fanny being excellent. I could do with a whole spin-off series about Fanny and her mother-in-law, it would be fantastic.
Agh, I need to read Dickens. I always start his books and then never finish and end up beating myself up about it. *Flails*
