Rochester

Up there with Captain Wentworth and Darcy, Rochester is always a character women will adore. Despite his pretty moral looseness. Guess everyone's a sucker for a Byronic hero/anti hero! Anyway, saw the new Jane Eyre yesterday and having been convinced that no-one could be a better Rochester than Toby Stephens, I was proved completely wrong. Very very wrong. Michael Fassbender was totally and utterly fantastic in the role. But I am wondering if the novel contains any notion that the character is a red-head, or is it an odd coincidence that the two best have been one themselves?





Throw in a little Darcy and Wentworth, just for good measure!
