Georgette Heyer film

Local Georgette Heyer fans may be interested in this:

ABC, Tuesday 1.55am - Reluctant Widow.

It's not a great adaption, but there are some fun moments (as far as I can recall) and it does explain why there aren't more films based on her novels (apparently she refused after this). Pity, there's so many of her books I'd love to see good movies made from (Talisman Ring, for starters).

The first Heyer I ever read was These Old Shades, and if you like genderf*ck The Masqueraders is FAB. In fact, they're mostly all good (the only slightly boring onces are the books with the dribbly ingenue heroines).

I'm pretty sure mine was either TOS or Masqueraders...I'm leaning more towards TOS. My mum, sister and I all love them - thanks to dad inheriting his love for them from his mum. Three generations of Heyer fans!
