I'm usually not into costume dramas and the beeb costume dramas became especially boring over the years, but this was something different, something fresh. not the least because Toby was brilliant as Rochester

"still he looked preciously grim,
cushioning his massive head against the swelling back of his chair,
and receiving the light of the fire on his granite-hewn features,
and in his great, dark eyes; for he had great, dark eyes, and very
fine eyes, too--not without a certain change in their depths
sometimes, which, if it was not softness, reminded you, at least, of
that feeling" (Ch. Bronte "Jane Eyre")
I think, that Toby Stephens exhibited Mr. Rochester`s image perfectly. He was so wonderful and so harmonious! Thank you, Mr. Stephens!

I luckily happened upon this show one night when I wasn't able to sleep. I was flipping through the channels and came upon the intriguing scene with Mr. Rochester and Jane talking underneath the tree about Adele. Wow! I have watched the movie over and over, and I never tire of it. Mr. Rochester is definitely someone that I would be happy to sit with. Jane was wonderful, too. I have this movie to thank for reminding me how important passion and romance is, and how important it is to never settle for anything less. There is nothing more wonderful than passionate true love! Thanks Toby and Ruth for the wonderful show!

HOTTIE ON THE POTTIE (Wed Jul 14, 2004 5:09pm ET)report post
by clarence de bravehearted
tobias is so hot! he's a good actor too. i saw him play HAMlet. he is very tantalizing, especially when he feigns madness and keeps running his fingers through his immaculate hair which falls luxuriously into his intense eyes. between that and his shirt, having been halfway unbuttoned in his "madness," he is one hottie on the pottie.

I also attended an excellent production of 'Hamlet' at the Albery Theatre London. Toby Stephens played , quite fittingly, Hamlet.
Toby is a great actor and exactly as I would imagine Hamlet to be. I was captivated.

Wow.. He is good (Tue Dec 3, 2002 3:33am ET)report post

handsome, yet sinister.. a real bad boy... I truly loved him from all the villains of the bond films.. Usually the villains are ugly burly bald men with tatoos. But his one was a combination of babe factor... but scarier.. I felt his rage.. the evil in him.. I never noticed him before Die Another day.. I hope he can be as charming!

Ditto that!! Actually found myself routing for the Bond baddy this time!

Currently gorgeous and excellent in Cambridge Spies. Aside from being eye candy(!), from other things I've seen him in (Tennant of Wildfell Hall, Sunset Heights, Gatsby, etc) - a really versatile actor too!
