Never do. David's much too hyper and not nearly horsey enough. :D
I waited for *years* for someone to figure out that Peter Davison would make a PERFECT Wimsey, on the other hand.
Edward Petherbridge is delightful as Wimsey, but agree that Gaudy Night was dreadful (but really, how can one collapse 500+ pages into 90 minutes well?)
LOVE Harriet Walter as Harriet Vane.
ETA: Sayers led me directly into Wodehouse, Waugh, and also Graham Greene. :) One might also suggest E.M. Forster for delicate romance..
