A 12-foot tall fiberglass statue of Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy was installed in London’s Hyde Park lake early this week startling passers-by, swans, and swimmers. The statue, showing Darcy from the waist up wearing a clinging wet shirt, is on display to promote Drama, a new British TV channel which will rebroadcast the popular six-part Pride and Prejudice series. Darcy will tour other lakes in Britain before being installed in Lyme Park where the famous scene was filmed. Can’t get to London? Enjoy the DVD. Read the entire article here.
