Colin Firth statue: TV exec adds Drama to stunt Colin Firth statue: TV exec adds Drama to stunt
(2 months later)
Forget about Colin Firth's memorable scene emerging from the lake as Mr Darcy in BBC1's Pride and Prejudice, recently voted the most memorable British TV drama of all time, there's a new torso in town. And this one belongs to Adrian Wills, general manager of new UKTV channel Drama. It was Drama which commissioned the memorable drama moments poll, you see, marked by a giant Mr Darcy sculpture in the Serpentine in central London (pictured above). Wills was so inspired by the whole thing that he donned a Darcy-style shirt and plunged into the waters himself (below). We're getting a bit more Alexander Armstrong than Colin Firth. Anyway. His pedalo is apparently just out of shot on the left.Forget about Colin Firth's memorable scene emerging from the lake as Mr Darcy in BBC1's Pride and Prejudice, recently voted the most memorable British TV drama of all time, there's a new torso in town.
