    Comments: Scandalous is too strong, but I certainly would enjoy seeing a bunch of Heyer adaptations. Her plots, characters, and dialogue would make excellent movie material.

    Comments: I agree entirely-I cannot understand how it has not been done before (ignoring the failed attempts years ago) and would bring Heyer to more people

    Comments: I completely agree! Hayer novels would make wonderful movies, if someone was smart enough to write a decent script and cast some of the many talented young British actors in the roles.

    Comments: I definitely agree! at the very least, the existing adaptations should be more easily available. faro's daughter, venetia or the grand sophie would be good to do. And i wont say no to the adaptation of Austen's "lady susan", 'the watsons" or "sanditon", none of which have had a stage or screen adaptation, though i hear an adaptation of the watsons is in the works

    Comments: I'm amazed that the people at BBC, Masterpiece Theater or anyone else hasn't tried any Heyer novel adaptations! I've noticed recently how many different versions of Jane Austen novels have been adapted multiple times, and I can't believe no one wants to try something new (and just as good, if not better, than Austen). Personally, I want Devil's Cub adapted :D.

    Comments: Oh, absolutely! I feel like some people shy away from Heyer because of the language, but of course, good acting would solve that problem. I think Heyer adaptations would be immensely popular.

    Comments: I'd love to see a BBC version of These Old Shades or The Grand Sophy! It would have to be the quality of Andrew Davies P&P with the screenplay following closely to the novel with the hero, heroine, and characters close to the actual ages portrayed.
