James Stanier Clarke to make appearance in Miss Austen Regrets
Found in one of those serendipitous things while looking for something else:
According to his agency CV, Jason Watkins, whom some of our Gentle Readers may remember as Charlie Parker-Knowles in Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, will portray “Rev. Clarke,” we assume to mean James Stanier Clarke, in Miss Austen Regrets.
As the Rev. Mr. Clarke’s exchange of letters with Jane Austen amuses us to no end, we are pretty much down with that. We are still concerned about the whole regretting-past-suitors plot, though.
