New Poll: Who is perfect?

Mr Thornton or Mr Darcy?

Darcy of course played by Colin Firth opposite Jennifer Ehle in the BBC adaptation of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice (1995) and Thornton by Richard Armitage opposite Daniela Denby-Ashe in the BBC adaptation of Mrs Gaskell's North and South (2004).
Colin Firth's Darcy jumps in the lake and comes out wearing a wet shirt he then talks to Lizzie awkwardly. Richard Armitage's John Thornton is so in love with Miss Hale that he explodes with Northern rage when she rejects him then cries at home to his mummy.
Darcy is a toff with a lot of cash, a stupid friend and a simple sister. Thornton is a Mill owner who beats the crap out of people for looking at him funny, he also has a simple sister.
