Just a side note - bearing in mind recent discussions on Bridget 
Jones' Diary.  Has anyone considered that this is also a kind of 
Pride and Prejudice fanfic?  In the same way that the film Clueless 
is for Emma, Cruel Intentions is for Dangerous Liaisons etc, etc...
There are numerous other examples, but these are the ones which 
spring to mind.
