Yes, indeed! I mean, I assume that when he sees Emma and Frank Churchill flirting together on Box Hill, his reaction is something like, Grrr I Will Tear His Face Off and Carry Her To My Man Cave, but a bit more refined. Until that point he doesn't find it difficult to offer corrections, but it's a real struggle for him to remonstrate about her behaviour to Miss Bates, because he's realised she is a grown-up woman and he's in love with her.
Sorry, you know all that! It's just - isn't it annoying when someone goes to all the trouble of making a telly or film version of a book without actually understanding the book!
