Mr. Darcy attends to many of the guests with goodbyes and farewells at this late hour after the ball.
Miss Phillipa is one guest who had waited all night to finally meet him. Although brief, a most exciting moment I am sure.
Miss Phillipa's rsvp... I'm Miss Phillipa Hodge and graciously accept your invitation. Though I'm not much of a dancer, I do love balls and I'm most eager to acquaint myself with the lovely ladies who will be present. I'm especially looking forward to meeting Mr Darcy and Mr Bingley, both of whom I've heard as charming gentlemen. |
To her delight, Mr. Bingley pops his head into her carriage to bid Adieu as well.

The adored children’s classic Goodnight Moon gets a classic lit makeover in this charming parody of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice novel. All of Austen’s much-loved characters are at the Netherfield Ball. In the great ballroom, there was a country dance, and a well-played tune, and Elizabeth Bennett; and Mr. Darcy surprised, by a pair of fine eyes . . . And don’t forget Jane with a blush and Mr. Bingley turned to mush, and a gossiping mother and father saying hush. Parents and toddlers alike will enjoy this new take on Austen’s timeless work à la Goodnight Moon.
played by Benedict Cumberbatch
based on Pride and Prejudice (2014)
