The pink v-neck gown trimmed in mauve worn by Samantha Bond (Mrs. Weston) to dinner at Hartfield is the same costume that was previously worn in "Pride and Prejudice" (1995) by Susannah Harker (Jane Bennet) during the outdoor scene at Longbourn when Jane and Elizabeth learn the contents of Uncle Gardiner's letter to Mr. Bennet. This costume is also worn by worn by Larushka Ivan-Zadeh Griaznov in "The Regency House Party" (2004). moreGoofs:

This is a better adaptation of the book than the one with Paltrow (although I liked that one, too). It isn't so much that Beckinsale is better -- they are both very good -- but that the screenplay is better. Davies is a master at adapting Austen for filming, and the production values here are very good. It's not quite as glossy as the Hollywood treatment, but it's close, and I thought that the locations and the costumes actually worked better.
