offlineMemberI was flicking through the channels last Sunday afternoon looking for an old movie to flop on the sofa with, and there was Wakeman on Songs of Praise. I knew he was a reformed drinker, but never knew he was a practicing Christian. Must admit, I ended up half watching it just for his contributions. Didn't know he'd played the piano on Cat Stevens' "Morning has broken". Classic quote : Question "How would you describe your playing style?" : Wakeman "Busy".

offlineMemberGiven that I name checked her in 3 dead and 25 injured in bandwagon collaspe I should probably admit that I was at school with Penny Mordaunt (Con Portsmouth North and currently number 14 on http://sexymp.co.uk) for 5 years.
In my defence I will say that I didn't know that she was going to become a politician and as a teenager I would have expected her to achieve a relative lack of fame as an actress.

offlineMemberMr B was walking through central Broughty Ferry this afternoon and just happened to come across some people filming. T'was only local boy done good Brian Cox (of the acting variety, rather than super-brain sort) filming.

offlineMemberThere is something about both of their voices, you are quite right.
And I love the idea of them being griffins.
I adore the way Sean Connery sounds, even though he's past what even I'd be prepared to shag. I always thought he'd have been a great Aslan, but he has become typecast as the voice of a dragon in my head.
Mind you, with that voice, he could still scorch the knickers off at 100yrds.Posted 1 year ago # -
I thought you wrote "I always thought he'd have been a great Asian".
Was prepared to jump in with You Only Live Twice, Rising Sun and various Suntory Whisky adverts.
And slapping women about, obviously.

offlineMemberI used to live just down the road from Engleburt Humperdink about 20 years ago. I used to go running past his house in Great Glen near Liecester every Sunday. Who would have guessed that one day he would be famous enough to do Eurovision?

dvo4fun
offlineMemberOn a homeopathic level.
I swam & paddled in the sea as a kid and remember swallowing some brine from time to time. Famous people must have pissed in the sea somewhere at some point, perhaps whilst swimming or even just before being eaten by a shark. Urine diluted to the max. before being drunk by a youthful Master 4fun, ergo ... Insert name of famous drownee here.

offlineMemberdvo,
by homeopathic reasoning, by swimming in the sea you’ve been exposed to the memory of all previously known pathogens, therefore you have complete immunity to all diseases. (As do all of us who’ve been to Brighton). Therefore, you have, at a stroke, eliminated the need for homeopaths. Good job!Posted 1 year ago #
