who played Liza lou? (Tess`s sister)she was excellant in that part, as she was in Land Girls

In response to Lynette: I agree about Hans Matheson being very lovely and charismatic but I violently disagree that he is irresistible as Alec. Alec is a rapist, cheat and an absolute cad - certainly not irresistible in my eyes. Everything he says or does in Tess of the d`Urbervilles is absolutely despicable.

Hans Matheson is absolutely amazing! Very very talented charismatic young actor! As Alec D`Urberville - absolutely irresistible.
