The scene from Pride and Prejudice, in which Colin Firth- who played the character of Mr Darcy- emerges from a lake all wet, has been celebrated in the shape of a 12-foot sculpture of the romantic hero.

The statue will be positioned in Lyme Park, Cheshire, where the eye-catching scene was filmed, the Guardian reported.

It has been temporarily installed in the Serpentine Lake in Hyde Park, London, but it will tour the UK before settling at its final place.

The fibreglass model has been created to mark the launch of UKTV's new channel Drama.
