Mr. Darcy is on YouTube
Mr. Darcy's made YouTube.
Janeites and period dance enthusiasts have put their assembly balls on video and upped them to YouTube. Some are strict call-by-call shots of the dances, but there's one that's terrifically amusing, as the director(s) took a few liberties. Granted, in that one, many of the attendees seem to be cavorting with all the decorum of full-force Lydia Bennett, but the general absence of farby attire and the fantastic antique fashions might make up for that.

- I didn't really see any farby here; elegantly attired crowd
- The attire is not as period, but the camera angle gives you a good shot of the dance formations
- Same group. Too bad we miss the big announcement
- Same group. I think I see Charlotte Collins
