I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Ioan and Amazing Grace

Ioan Gruffudd (Fantastic Four) has signed on to topline Walden Media's Amazing Grace for director Michael Apted, says The Hollywood Reporter. Albert Finney (Big Fish) also has joined the cast.

Based on the life of British anti-slavery pioneer William Wilberforce (Gruffudd), the film follows his 18th century political career, which placed him at odds with some of the most powerful men of the time, including the king. Finney will play John Newton, a Wilberforce confidant.

Steven Knight (Dirty Pretty Things) wrote the screenplay.
Sounds excellent, so far. I hope more information is forthcoming.
