| 2 | ** In the 1999 miniseries, Barbara Leigh-Hunt plays Lady Cumnor, and Rosamund Pike plays Lady Cumnor's daughter Lady Harriet. Both of them have been in adaptations of ''Literature/PrideAndPrejudice'', as Lady Catherine de Burgh in 1995 and Jane in 2005, respectively. And Creator/TomHollander (Osborne) was Mr. Collins in the 2005 film, too. |
| 3 | ** Several actors in the miniseries went on to appear in ''Series/{{Cranford}}'': Francesca Annis (Mrs. Gibson) as Lady Ludlow, Deborah Findlay (Miss Phoebe) as Augusta Tomkinson, Barbara Flynn (Miss Browning) as Mrs. Jamieson, and Creator/MichaelGambon (Squire Hamley) as Thomas Holbrook. |
| 4 | ** Michael Gambon and Tom Hollander went on to play a father and son again in ''Series/TheLostPrince''. They also appeared together in ''Film/GosfordPark'', where they play brothers-in-law. |
| 5 | * WTHCostumingDepartment: Towards the end of the 1999 series, Lady Harriet suddenly appears with a short, spiky and utterly anachronistic hairstyle. No reason for this is ever given. |
| 6 | ** This short, spiky hairstyle is not a modern-day cut, but a style called "chevelure a la Titus," popularized in France around the late eighteenth century and early nineteenth century. It does seem unusual that Lady Harriet would wear it in the 1830s, though. |
