Lorna Doone

I bought a DVD copy of the 1990 TV series of Lorna Doone with Sean Bean as the villain, Carver Doone, and Clive Owen as the hero, John Ridd. It's beautifully done, though it does leave out a couple of parts, e.g. John Ridd's marginal involvement with the Monmouth Rebellion. Both Clive Owen and Sean Bean are good. As it's 17th Century, all the men have long hair. Yay!

Carver Doone is one of the first Sean Bean characters I saw where my thought process went something like 'He's the bad guy! But he's so attractive, and I feel kinda sympathetic and who cares about the hero anyway, yay Sean Bean!'

Yep. Man, he's gorgeous in that.

Yes, he is gorgeous in this. I love the long hair, the earrings, and the clothes. I also feel a bit sympathetic, and he's more interesting than the hero.
