Winner of the BJF Anniversary Quiz!
Sorry for one day delay for the quiz announcement, I had a network problem yesterday. Anyway, after two weeks of announcement, finally we arrive at the winner of the BJF Anniversary Quiz! Team Jane would like to express our sincere gratitude to all readers and friends who have submitted their answers. It’s very surprising to have friends from
Anyway, without further ado, these are the answers for the quiz:
1. What was Jane Austen’s last letter that directly referred to Tom Lefroy?
Answer: Letter
“Mrs. Lefroy did come last Wednesday, and the Harwoods came likewise, but very considerately paid their visit before Mrs. Lefroy's arrival, with whom, in spite of interruptions both from my father and James, I was enough alone to hear all that was interesting, which you will easily credit when I tell you that of her nephew she said nothing at all, and of her friend very little. She did not once mention the name of the former to me, and I was too proud to make any inquiries; but on my father's afterwards asking where he was, I learnt that he was gone back to London in his way to Ireland, where he is called to the Bar and means to practise.”
Choose two places of BJ movie locations that have association with Tom Lefroy
Answer:
b. King's
e. Bray, Co. Wicklow: Some of the Becoming Jane scenes (Lady Gresham's manor) where done outside the Kilruddery House in Bray. Interestingly, Bray was the coastal town where the real Tom Lefroy passed away on
And the winner is: Mariana Gheorge!
Congratulations to Mariana! We will send the BJ DVD to you soon!
Oh, and a friend (Gail) asked how she could join a BJ fan club. Well, unfortunately, Becoming Jane Fansite is not an official fan club of the Becoming Jane. However, it IS a fan club in many ways, and we don’t have any memberships. Just drop by often to discuss stuffs about BJ and Jane/Tom, and you’re already part of the family!

"Tis too much!' she added, ``by far too much. I do not deserve it. Oh! why is not every body as happy?" (Pride and Prejudice – Jane Bennet)
This is WONDERFUL!!!! I am “the happiest creature in the world” and very pleasantly surprised, as your first question was a little bit tricky…
THANK YOU Team Jane, from all my heart with all my incandescently love for Jane-Tom and your BJ Fansite. Now I will treasure this DVD even more because is from my dearest friends.
Once more, I want to thank you for creating such a beautiful place where we can share our love for Jane Austen.
