Game the Fortieth: What were they on?

Helloooo everyone.  Today we shall have an actors game. The last one I did was, if I recall, a bit hard for y'all. So hopefully this will be easier. And more fun.  Sorry this is a day late... I was all out of ideas until the dear Miss Jane Bennet inspired this one. (Many thanks for that!)  But I won't post the answers till Monday, so feel free to play up to then. :)

First of all, no peeking at the actors page. Because the object of this game is to recognize the actors of P&P in other period dramas, so that might give things away. Well, all of the pictures will be of some actor who was in P&P, but none of them will be from P&P. Each one will have four categories, there are ten pictures, so the highest number of points will be 40. (I'll just put the categories under each picture to make it easier. :) )

~One~
See if you can name the:
1. Movie/Miniseries/TV Series
2. Character
3. Actor
4. Actor's character in P&P

See if you can name the:

~Four~ 1. David Copperfield 2. No idea, never seen it, so I am reduced to guessing. I shall say... Agnes? 3. Emilia Fox 4. Georgiana Darcy

~Ten~ 1. The Secret Garden (I had just seen P+P '95 for the first time when I rewatched this film with my little sister.

Colin Firth 4. MR. DARCY.

Ooh, I'm so glad I inspired you, m'dear! :)
1. Haha, this one's pretty easy. :D S&S71 is the TV series, the Character is Elinor Dashwood, the Actress is Joanna David, and the P&P Character is Aunt Gardiner.

2. Erm...actually, no idea for this one.

3. I'm pretty sure that that's Lucy Scott, who played Charlotte Lucas in P&P, but again, no idea about what she's in there.

4. Emilia Fox, who played Georgiana Darcy...still no idea of the other two.

5. Anna Chancellor, who played Caroline Bingley...but I'm still lost as to what film she's in.

For 6, 7 and 8 I have no idea...

9. Susannah Harker, who played Jane Bennet in P&P...I should know. ;)

10. That looks an awful lot like Colin Firth, who played Mr. Darcy (no, really? :D) in P&P...I’m going to guess that he’s in The Importance of Being Earnest (which would make him John “Jack” Worthing), but I don’t really know.
I’m really bad at recognizing actors by their faces…I’ll do better another game, I’m sure. :)

This is really hard because I haven't watched most of these other movies but I will have a go :)

1. Mrs. Gardiner in P&P. I can't remember what her real name is! Alison Carter?

2. Mrs. Bennet in P&P. Maybe she was Alison Carter or Alison somebody.

3. The Colonel's wife in P&P

4. Gerogiana in P&P. Is she called Emilia Fox in real life?

5. Caroline Bingley in P&P. Anna Chancellor in real life.

6. David Bamber who played Mr. Collins in P&P. Is this scene from The King's Speech?

7. She looks awfully familiar. Is this scene from an Emma? And if so, is she Mrs. bates or Mrs. Elton?

8. I know who she is in P&P but since someone told me before I guessed I can't really answer!

9. Jane Bennet in P&P. Susanna Harker in real life?

10. The only one I really do know! The King's Speech, King George V1, Colin Firth, Fitzwilliam Darcy.
