Game the Twenty-First: P&P Degrees of Separation {2}

{EDIT: My apologies!  I accidentally listed Great Expectations 2011 as Great Expectations 2012.  So sorry for any confusion!  I've changed the list below, so it's accurate now.  :D Thanks to Caroline for pointing this out!}

The last Degrees of Separation game was rather fun, I thought, so I made another one to test your skills.  

To play, simply identify the characters, actors and period dramas in the blanks below.  Copy and paste the text into a comment, and fill in the parentheses with the names of characters, actors and films that you know.  If there are any that stump you, just leave a question mark within those parenthesis.  Please do not use IMDb to look things up-- try to rely on your memory alone!

Have fun!

*Due to Miss Dashwood's whirl of social gaiety this weekend and the fact that Miss Marianne does not have access to the list of answers--she wants to be able to play the game, after all--the results from this game will not be posted until Monday.  This is what happens most of the time anyways so it shouldn't be a big deal.

Did you mean Great Expectations 2011 (the tv miniseries?) The 2012 movie has no actor matches with Bleak House - I checked and rechecked - but the 2011 tv series does.
