There is no better time than a Sunday night for a good old dose of period drama. The Beeb was good enough to indulge our nostalgic whims, with viewers being warned to expect scenes of a sexual nature and strong regional accents.

Here are 14 thoughts we had while watching the smut.

1. Yeah, yeah right.

“You will always have me. You will always have me,” cries Lady Chatterley into her newly returned injured husband’s arms, moments after his botched suicide attempt.

The book’s called Lady Chatterley’s LOVER, FFS.

2. I bet not all groundsmen have such joined up handwriting.

3. OOOH. No top.

4. Hang on, didn’t….?

Confusing much?

5. And the award for most unromantic sentence goes to…

6. Aren’t they supposed to fancy each other?

7. Too. Many. Nature. Innuendos.

8. Finally! It was beginning to look like things would never progress.

9. Interesting seduction style, Oliver…

10. Did they really just have a two minute conversation about *little* Oliver Mellors?

11. This scene’s not really about the car, is it?

12. They all have remarkably good teeth.

13. Did he just say cock?

14. And is he trying to be romantic, or dirty?

Ah – time’s up! I guess we will never know.
