"Double Duty": A Quiz


Jane Austen’s work continues to draw actors eager to embody her characters—many have appeared in more than one Austen-inspired adaptation. Have you spotted them over the years? Test your knowledge of the performers who have taken on multiple roles with our short quiz. Your score will be revealed when you click "Done."

Scoring

Each correct answer equals one point.  

11 to 13 Correct:  You share our obsession with Austen adaptations. You’ve earned a Mr. Darcy!

8 to 10 Correct:  You are an Austen adaptation expert but can do better. Like Anne Elliot, your capability and intelligence vastly exceed those around you. Don’t let others sway your choices!

5 to 7 Correct:  Like Catherine Morland, you haven’t yet seen enough of the world—or, in this case, enough Austen adaptations. Go seek some Austen screen adventures and retake the quiz.

3 to 4 Correct:  Badly done, Emma! You’re clever, so we know you can do better than this. Instead of making a list of which adaptations to see, watch some and then retake the quiz.

0 to 2 Correct:  Poor, dear Harriet. You may want to spend more time in the Hartfield or Donwell Abbey film libraries and try your luck again.
