200 years of Pride and Prejuice

Here is our opening scene in two versions. First is the BBC TV miniseries from 1995 (the scene we are working on starts at 3:15, and goes on till about 6:40), and then the film adaptation of the novel from 2005 (play from the start). In which  version do you think is this particular scene  presented more convincingly/closer to the spirit of what we can read in the novel itself? Which adaptation do you generally prefer, if you know both? Is this the type of book/film you like, at least from time to time? Please address these questions on your blogs, or just discuss anything connected with Pride and Prejudice (novel/TV series/movie). I'm looking forward to your first posts in this semester! :)
