I liked Lost in Austen. It was very playful and fun (and I quite like the woman who played Amanda). I've seen every Anglo-American Jane Austen adaptation since 1971 inc. the awful awful Mormon updating of Pride and Prejudice. It was badness. I keep meaning to watch the Bollywood/India ones too although they're not period pieces but updatings. And yet I keep putting it off too, inc Bride and Prejudice.
I have seen Secret Garden and Little Princess, admittedly not recently, but I haven't seen Little Lord Fauntleroy. I might seek it out.
I really enjoy Agatha Christie adaptations. I do like Sherlock Holmes but I'm more likely to choose the Marple and then the Poirot over Sherlock if they were on TV. :) I'm not sure about the new Marples though. :S
