Henry Tilney rules and pretty much every other hero drools
March 16, 2011
And now we have proof. At last, a full video is available of the brilliant parody of the Old Spice ads written by AustenBlog’s own Heather Laurence and performed by the delightful Joe Homes, who stood in for Mr. Tilney during the Team Tilney presentation at last year’s JASNA AGM, filmed, directed, and edited by Lynn Marie Macy. Enjoy, Janeites, and feel free to make this viral! The world needs to know of Mr. Tilney’s many perfections.
HE HAS A PUPPY.
Oh, what a Henry!
Swoon! The puppy did me in at the end.
I HAVE A PUPPY.
Genius. Kudos and congratulations all around. This video is completely made of WIN!
(Says a woman who had a video from the actual Old Spice guy with her name in it: http://kellyrfineman.livejournal.com/582423.html)
Fantastic.
Best Henry Tilney Ever…I’d ove to see him in a Greatcoat ! Bravo Joe and Bravo Team Tilney ladies.
Ooh ! …is Joe available for a recording of Northanger Abbey? ? Thankyou so much.
This almost (but not quite) makes up for my having to miss the Team Tilney presentation in Portland. Bravo, one and all!
Brilliant! Delightful! Perfect! Inspired! I can’t say enough! Thanks to all of Team Tilney, and especially Mags!
“You’re handsome enough to tempt me.” I’m literally crying with laughter right now!
Love this! Very clever indeed!
I am so giggling like a little girl! hehehe! Oh the many reasons why Henry Tilney is so delightful!
Thanks for this!
Very funny, Mr. Tilney. But some women like a challenge. Tackling the brooding Mr. Darcy is more fun.
Bargain with the Devil
That’s a great Tilney!!
This is awesome! I just discovered your blog and I’m in love. xx
LOL!How could I miss this! and he has a puppy, awwww!
