Honestly, Gigi apologizing and fearing Fitz and Darcy will be mad at her, even though they both clearly love her, is heartbreaking. That goes to show how much an abusive relationship will mess you up -- even though Gigi is a survivor, and she's recovering, she still doubts the real, loving, healthy relationships she has.
"That wasn't your fault." - "Indirectly it was, much of her troubles are, you've seen her videos." XD I know he's being serious, but there's an amount of snark in there that I just can't ignore.
I don't really think Gigi's suggestion to go take a swim has as much to do with the 1995 miniseries as it is a symbol of her recovery. Gigi was a professional swimmer, and post-Wickham she gave it up because of everything that happened. She took up tennis instead. The Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet explores that a little more in detail. More specifically, Gigi didn't speak to Darcy for over two months after the Wickham confrontation. They were only just beginning to get back on track when Darcy left for Netherfield for the first time, where he meets Lizzie. It helps to give Darcy's frame of mind and his actions a little more context regarding his actions concerning Bing and Jane. Gigi is on his mind at all times, and it's not difficult to imagine how that could have coloured his vision over what he saw happening with Jane.
I know this is a joke, but after what she's been through and what she's done, Gigi can go wherever the hell she wants. Darcy, Fitz, I and the rest of the fandom will personally defend her from anyone who would make fun of her.
"Everything is... taken care of. (I 'took care' of him) He won't ever be able to do this again. (Because he's dead)." Anyone else sensing that subtext?
Agreed. The key work is "able". If Darcy had said, "he won't ever do this again", it sounds like a threat was involved. But, "he won't ever be ABLE to do this again" implies a level of disability, perhaps a complete metabolic disability, on the part of Wickham.
Wow, I connected it to George Wickham being a swim coach and how Gigi quit swimming because of him. I figured their mutual defeat of him had made swimming ok again. (Maybe it could be both? Great works stand up to multiple interpretations.)
Am i the only one who, when he said he'll never do it again, had an image of behind the camera Wickham's bloody corps/tortured and gagged body? Anyone?
Yes, and exactly what color are their eyes? Darcy's (Daniel's) I can convince myself are a shade of green, but Gigi's (Allison's)? Grey? Grey-green? Green-grey?
I'm facepalming myself right now because I didn't get that reference right away. I was thinking about Wickham being a swimming instructor in this, so I thought that swimming comment was odd...but now it obviously makes sense! :D
I really like your profile picture, Heowa :) Rapunzel would make a good Jedi. And then Mother Gothel would be all, "Rapunzel I am your mother." and Rapunzel would be all, "NOOOOOOOOOoooooo, you're totally not." Frying pans are probably better weapons than light sabers though.
"I would prefer it if you and Fitz would honor my wishes on this matter." Translate to: Please don't steer that ship so fast...well, he can forget about that!
"And I would appreciate it if you and Fitz would respect my wishes on this matter." Darcy putting an end to the constant matchmaking is so adorable cause he's like "Imma fix this myself"
Read Phantom of Pemberly! Not by the same author, obvi, buuuut, it is a second book where Darcy and Lizzie are married and you see Lydia and Whickam and their 'relationship' and see more on the "how could he be so petty, even in P&P to manipulate like he did". Also. He gets the beating you want!! :-D
I'm so happy they made these videos! I love getting to see the positive side to Darcy's character. It's one of my favorite parts of Pride and Prejudice. :)
Watching this makes me so happy I love Gigi and Darcy and fitz and just this whole cast of LBD. They are so talented and just amazing and even though I wish LBD didn't end(ish) I am so happy with all the content created due to how amazing LBD was! Emma Approved has become a new obsession and welcome to sanditon was amazing!!
I love, love, LOVE that Darcy spent two weeks exhaustively working to stop Wickham just so Lizzie wouldn't have to worry so much. He didn't want to impress her. He doesn't want to use his actions to make her love him. He just did it because it was the right thing to do and because he cares. What a wonderful example of being loving.
This is such a sad moment. She does blame him a lot and he so clearly loves her. Continue to make amends without telling her or asking for gratitude. Thank goodness for Lydia snooping and Ep 98!
I'm so happy these exists!! It rounds out the story so well. On the LBD end it's just like, "Magically fixed!" and over here it's like, "Darcy = affluent and compassionate power god." So nice to see other facets!!!
After reading the Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet, she did keep her promise of not telling Lizzie... since she told it to Mary who told it to Lydia who then told Lizzie. 😂😂😂
I didn't keen much about this domino app which doesn't really make this very realistic for such a great vlog. Lizzie Bennett diaries will always be AMAZING !!!!
I'm going to miss videos centered on Gigi. She's become my favorite character and I absolutely love watching her interact with Darcy and Fitz. Team FiGi!
Supernova dust The Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet explains how Lydia found out...you're kind of on the right track. I'll avoid saying more to not post spoilers.
In the book Darcy is like a father to her almost, since their parents are dead. Also in the book Fitz is their cousin. Obviously they changed some stuff, but the relationship of protectiveness (especially because of what Gigi went through with Wickham) is still true to the novel.
Yay siblings looking out for each other! I hope Darcy gets to be on good terms with Lizzie. Never give up on love William. You're awesome for being strong Gigi!
I love Fitz, and how even though Gigi blatantly broke his promise he was still very chill and okay. Love makes people able to look beyond. I think Domino ties in well because it shows us how we communicate by capturing us in our attempts. It is an objective observer.
Can't believe all this of GiGi's videos are over!!! Please have GiGi post more videos or Fitzwilliam Darcy because that'll be amazing having Fitzwilliam's point of view shown
I saw Fitz in a McDonald's advert while eating clam chowder on holiday in 158 Maine, VT. Stared at the screen for about 5 minutes afterwards, while my parents stared at me for 5 minutes. My mum finally asked 'What's wrong?' And I said nothing even though my world order had just been reshuffled - Stunned Londoner
Haha I'll gladly accept the cookie. The "swim" is a reference to the 1995 BBC miniseries of Pride and Prejudice - the scene where Colin Firth (as Darcy) returns to Pemberley when Elizabeth and her aunt and uncle were at the estate and he jumped into the lake for a swim :).
I find it very amusing that Darcy has a best friend and a sister who meddle in his affairs just as much as he and Caroline meddle in Bing's, at least in this adaption. It's nice that it works out for him in a way that it never really did for Bing and I think thats because of the differences between him and Bing to be honest
I'm sad at the thought that we won't be seeing as much of Gigi from now on. It's been a joy to get to know her. This was a sweet conversation. It's also nice to see Fitz happy as he exits. I really want to know what Darcy did though.
I totally think Darcy ripped off Wickham's dickham.
I honestly laughed for hours at this!
+ThoughtsFromClosets Best Comment EVER !
Ilika Trivedi I totally forgot I made this comment. It's a wonderful blast from the past =)
ThoughtsFromClosets its 1am right now and I'm laughing my head off
@@ThoughtsFromClosets It's been eight years since you made this comment and it still makes me laugh every year when I read it again.

None of us know how exactly George fucked her up, but we can see the effects and know that he did.
I think it's more that she was afraid that they'd be mad at her for breaking their trust...
"Go for a swim William, it will be refreshing" Now did I just realize the 1995 BBC adaptation reference there.
Caryl Jannie Lazo OMG YES!!!! THANK YOU FOR NOTICING!!!
I'm realizing it now years later 😂
Nobody doesn't love Fitz. True facts.
The Darcy eyebrow game is on point.
Indeed
TOTAL "I dislike smiling; it contorts the face." moment at 2:20 !!!!
I have that exact sentence saved as my screensaver (?) actually... XD
SOOOOO TRU!!!!!
is it bad a part of me wants to believe he killed wickham?
I think we ALL want to believe that he killed Wickham.
Cherisse Fernandez I know, it's just that it would be nice if Wickham REALLY got punished.
in the Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennett, Lydia gives him the total smack down. It's very enjoyable
He didn’t kill him. He’s still alive in The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet.
I think it would be better if Wickham got arrested for some other shady crap he's done and is rotting in prison somewhere
"That wasn't your fault." - "Indirectly it was, much of her troubles are, you've seen her videos." XD I know he's being serious, but there's an amount of snark in there that I just can't ignore.

You can't go to Fiji because... you'd get so made fun of. Think about it. Gigi in Figi.
Ha!
Fiji is also the name of the awesome superhero duo Fitz and Gigi- who are the captains of the Dizzie ship
@@phhplover02 I KNOW RIGHT?!
I know this is a joke, but after what she's been through and what she's done, Gigi can go wherever the hell she wants. Darcy, Fitz, I and the rest of the fandom will personally defend her from anyone who would make fun of her.
"Everything is... taken care of. (I 'took care' of him) He won't ever be able to do this again. (Because he's dead)." Anyone else sensing that subtext?
Yeah, every single time I watch it, this is pretty much what I imagine he meant :-D
Oh Darcy. :-D
When I heard those lines, I immediately imagined a vat of acid, to dispose of all evidence and to wipe that dirtbag from the face of this earth 3:)
Agreed. The key work is "able". If Darcy had said, "he won't ever do this again", it sounds like a threat was involved. But, "he won't ever be ABLE to do this again" implies a level of disability, perhaps a complete metabolic disability, on the part of Wickham.
Yup.
the darcy eyebrow game is so strong though damn
"Go for a swim." I love this reference to the movie.
+Melanie Klump Oh! NOW I get it !
+Cherisse Fernandes it's a reference to the epic Colin Firth swimming in the lake scene in BBC's P&P!
Wow, I connected it to George Wickham being a swim coach and how Gigi quit swimming because of him. I figured their mutual defeat of him had made swimming ok again. (Maybe it could be both? Great works stand up to multiple interpretations.)
That's my interpretation too. Gigi's recovery is the theme here.
the bbc series
Am i the only one who, when he said he'll never do it again, had an image of behind the camera Wickham's bloody corps/tortured and gagged body? Anyone?
Ummm that would be me
I do know and boi do I like it
1000%
I laughed at his toning thinking he actually killed that d!**
Is is just me or do Gigi and William have very similar eyes. These actors really look like they could be related.
They have a similar jaw line too.
+minimooster yes, that's the third similarity I noticed, after their eyes and noses
Yes, and exactly what color are their eyes? Darcy's (Daniel's) I can convince myself are a shade of green, but Gigi's (Allison's)? Grey? Grey-green? Green-grey?
@@gptiede I think they're both shades of grey, but they act differently in light, so they rarely look the exact same shade at the same time.
Of the spinoffs from the Lizzie Bennet Diaries, this one is probably my favorite.
same
"Go for a swim, William." ALL I CAN THINK OF IS COLIN FIRTH IN BBC P&P. Those of you who have seen it will know what I'm talking about. ;)
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!
I'm facepalming myself right now because I didn't get that reference right away. I was thinking about Wickham being a swimming instructor in this, so I thought that swimming comment was odd...but now it obviously makes sense! :D

Brookie S.
How about a light frying pan? Same effect, more surface area... :D
Sweet, that will work ;D
"I would prefer it if you and Fitz would honor my wishes on this matter." Translate to: Please don't steer that ship so fast...well, he can forget about that!
Darcy smiles so much when he's talking to Gigi! Their relationship is absolutely adorable.
"And I would appreciate it if you and Fitz would respect my wishes on this matter."
Darcy putting an end to the constant matchmaking is so adorable cause he's like "Imma fix this myself"
i would love a version of Pride and Prejudice where Darcy ends up beating the shit out Wickham. Just sayin'.
pride and prejudice, a latter day comedy... not as good as this, but that beating though...
I mean, that kind of exists if you count Bridget Jones
WatchMeFail There's one I read it's called Prom & Prejudice-- it's a bit mediocre, but Wickham gets what's coming for him🤕
It happens in P&P and Zombies (the book, not the movie)
Read Phantom of Pemberly!
Not by the same author, obvi, buuuut, it is a second book where Darcy and Lizzie are married and you see Lydia and Whickam and their 'relationship' and see more on the "how could he be so petty, even in P&P to manipulate like he did".

"Thank you for being the best big brother ever!" Awww :)
I'm so happy they made these videos! I love getting to see the positive side to Darcy's character. It's one of my favorite parts of Pride and Prejudice. :)
you can tell she's still slightly damaged because she fully expects Fitz to be mad at her, like Wickham would be
Aw! They're so cute! I could totally see them as actual siblings.
Wasn't too sure about the Darcy casting at first but every video he was in proved me wrong. Awesome!
THAT AWKWARD ALMOST SMILE WHEN GIGI TOLD HIM HE WAS THE BEST BIG BROTHER EVER
She's so pretty and cool and I want to be just like her when I grow up.
Gigi your eyebrows are fantastic!
"Go for a swim, I think it will be refreshing." Was I the only one who thought of Colin Firth jumping into that pond in the BBC miniseries?
Think that might be why he's going to Fiji.
Gotta love international waters, so much can go missing in them...
Watching this makes me so happy I love Gigi and Darcy and fitz and just this whole cast of LBD. They are so talented and just amazing and even though I wish LBD didn't end(ish) I am so happy with all the content created due to how amazing LBD was! Emma Approved has become a new obsession and welcome to sanditon was amazing!!
"He'll never be able to do this again."
Does that mean that he killed George?
Marie I hope George Wickham was castrated and thrown out the window into a pack of hungry hellhounds
Well, George is in "The Epic Adventures of Lydia Bennet" so sadly, he's still alive
Well, fans can dream...
@@violetlavi2207 is he at least in jail
I love, love, LOVE that Darcy spent two weeks exhaustively working to stop Wickham just so Lizzie wouldn't have to worry so much. He didn't want to impress her. He doesn't want to use his actions to make her love him. He just did it because it was the right thing to do and because he cares. What a wonderful example of being loving.
Fitz is absolutely dreamy
The “much of her troubles are, you’ve seen her videos” still gets to me 10 years later
I hope Lydia and Gigi became friends after this! There’s so much they can learn from each other!
can we please just talk about that smile when Gigi said Darcy was the best big brother I mean how adorable was that omg
"did you tell her?" "tell who?" "you know who!" VOLDEMORT????
My unkel?! . . . No, that would not be " you know who" but " he who must not be named"
I gotta say, I'm enjoying the sibling love that's been going on in these videos - Gigi & Darcy, Lizzie & Lydia, Jane & Lizzie
"He'll never be able to do this again."
So did Darcy kill George, or...?
Never fails to impress me how they managed to cast two actors that look so much like they could actually be siblings.
THIS IS SO GREAT
"Go take a swim" is such a miniseries callback and I am HERE FOR IT!!!
Much of her problems are (because of him) Haven't you seen her videos??...-LOL- that part killed me! XD
Ahhh they look like twins!!!! Such well casting done
Soo Fitz is gay. How did I not notice his "bf" comment when I first saw this?!
Did anyone not?
+randylion i think they mention it at least once or twice in the LBD when lizzie meets fitz
It's probably unhealthy how much I ship these characters. I love this new way of storytelling!
This is such a sad moment. She does blame him a lot and he so clearly loves her. Continue to make amends without telling her or asking for gratitude. Thank goodness for Lydia snooping and Ep 98!
It took me like 2 minutes... what could it be what could it be.... Permberly (England) has wonderfull lakes... Loved it!!!!!
Go for a swim, she says, it will be refreshing, she says...haaahhhh, I see what u did there :D
I can't get over how well they cast the Darcys. They resemble each other a lot!
AAAHHHHHHHHH OMGOMGOMGOMG GO FOR A SWIM I JUST GOT THAT REFERENCE
I'm so happy these exists!! It rounds out the story so well. On the LBD end it's just like, "Magically fixed!" and over here it's like, "Darcy = affluent and compassionate power god." So nice to see other facets!!!
I love how Darcy calls her 'Jiji'
I love the writers so much. Of all the holiday destination they were amazingly kind to the fandom and chose FIGI. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!
love it!!! i'm going to be so sad when these series end! :(
-lainey
Halfway through I realized I just had the biggest grin on my face! And I love the swimming reference!
Darcy's grammar in this one makes me wince. A fastidious person like him would never make such rudimentary errors.
The only one I noticed was "much" instead of "many".
I love Gigi so much, I can't even say. She's just so charming! I want a full spin-off series for her....
After reading the Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet, she did keep her promise of not telling Lizzie... since she told it to Mary who told it to Lydia who then told Lizzie. 😂😂😂
I didn't keen much about this domino app which doesn't really make this very realistic for such a great vlog. Lizzie Bennett diaries will always be AMAZING !!!!

THESE WERE SO AWESOME! they must continue I love the format of all the videos connecting and showing different perspectives of the same situation.
GOOOOOOOOO DARCY!!!!!!!!!
I don't want these videos to end! I'll miss Gigi and Fitz and adorable big brother Darcy!!!
'Make emends'. I see what you did there...
So...Darcy has clearly had Wickham either arrested, killed, or beaten to a bloody pulp and driven out of the country.
Kudos.
They really look like siblings.
I Love the fact that you used programming related concepts in the videos titles since she is talking about a new programmed App
Daniel Gordh would play a good Vulcan...
I love Fitz and just the whole cast really, this is such good casting and directing
how did I not realize fitz was gay my first time watching 💖🥺💖
They did an incredible job with the casting, they really do look like siblings.
Am I the only one who finds it annoying how all of the guys feel the need to protect Gigi? Shes not helpless
In the book Darcy is like a father to her almost, since their parents are dead. Also in the book Fitz is their cousin. Obviously they changed some stuff, but the relationship of protectiveness (especially because of what Gigi went through with Wickham) is still true to the novel.
sgracesful plus I think both Darcy and Fitzwilliam had custody of her
lighthouse119:105 Yeah, you're right. In the book though, she is about 12 years younger than Darcy.
Yes, there NEEDS to be 'uncovered archival' Darcy footage, where it covers some of the time since the beginning... BEST IDEA EVER!!!
oh my god, darcy killed him
Darcy's face when she tells him he's the best big brother!
Darcy's right eyebrow is thinner than his left and I can't concentrate on anything else
Yay siblings looking out for each other! I hope Darcy gets to be on good terms with Lizzie. Never give up on love William. You're awesome for being strong Gigi!
who else is certain they murdered George?
I love Fitz, and how even though Gigi blatantly broke his promise he was still very chill and okay. Love makes people able to look beyond. I think Domino ties in well because it shows us how we communicate by capturing us in our attempts. It is an objective observer.

My mum finally asked 'What's wrong?' And I said nothing even though my world order had just been reshuffled - Stunned Londoner
I agree. And it's funny because the actor himself (Daniel Gordh) appears to be such a laid-back, adorable goofball in real life.
"make amends"
a phrase directly taken from P&P of 2005.
love it!
I love the little smile Darcy has when he says he will "continue to make amends" and Gigi's like "how" but he won't tell her. HMMMMM I WONDEERRRRRRR.
i dont know if they're actual siblings but if not then the casting is incredible
They're not! The casting is incredible!
Man, I can't help but think that Lydia would love this app
Fitz always seems to happy to see Gigi. It's like "hi, it's so nice to see you."
Haha I'll gladly accept the cookie. The "swim" is a reference to the 1995 BBC miniseries of Pride and Prejudice - the scene where Colin Firth (as Darcy) returns to Pemberley when Elizabeth and her aunt and uncle were at the estate and he jumped into the lake for a swim :).
I'm sad these videos are over. I adore the Darcy/Fitz/Gigi interactions.
i LOVE this and the wholeeee lizzie bennett series and alllll the associated vids. hope you guys never stop posting :D
I find it very amusing that Darcy has a best friend and a sister who meddle in his affairs just as much as he and Caroline meddle in Bing's, at least in this adaption. It's nice that it works out for him in a way that it never really did for Bing and I think thats because of the differences between him and Bing to be honest
Awww its so good to see William smiling :)
it totally fits Darcy's character for him to be the only one that pronounces Gigi's name all fancy.
I'm sad at the thought that we won't be seeing as much of Gigi from now on. It's been a joy to get to know her. This was a sweet conversation. It's also nice to see Fitz happy as he exits. I really want to know what Darcy did though.
