Just seven days to make a man. A very attractive, good at sex man who doesnt speak.

If only I could get Frankie to make me one of those right now.

It's on Film Four I thought I saw?

I wouldn't like the blonde bimbo aspect tbh, you've got to talk to them at some point unless you keep them in the cupboard.

You'd have to put up with Christopher Biggins in the background.

Keeping them in the cupboard sounds reasonable...

Yup, currently on Film 4. Bloody adverts, but still signing along like a looney. Good job the kids are at their dads tongith!

and yes, keeping them in the cupboard sounds good to me. Coming out only on certain nights - like a batteryless ann summers toy Grin

Love it! I went to see the show live when it was Jason Donovan as Frankie, and was in the 2nd row. Was the best thing ever - with the water pistols, newspapers, kit kats and the like!

Must get the CD for the car, but not sure its the best thing to listen to with the kids!! Grin

I am now thinking of Tim Curry in his suspenders and slap and am probably going to have to go and have a nice lie down....

Really Headfirst? we were practically encouraged to take the stuff. This was 12 years ago though!

You just cant beat Tim Curry in makeup and suspenders with his prancing in high heels.

I always want to be Magenta. Until the end when she turns into SuperBitch.

Yes! Our local theatre must be a really miserable bunch! It was a few years ago, we'll have to go again to see if they've relaxed the rule :)

Damn I missed this. Ah well off i go to watch the well worn anniversary dvd i have. I love this film. This and The Labyrinth are two of my all time Faves. There is no better Frankie than Tim Curry. I agree Richard O' Brien is a genius.

ZigZag, I first watched it at about 14 - went to see it live at 16. am slightly shocked at that now!

and yes Exeter - the guy off Crystal Maze wrote and stared in Rocky Horror Grin

I know I've had a tad too much too drink, but that has really made me laugh!
