To think Victoria Coren-mitchel meant that

[JumpandScore]

When she said she found Rees-Mogg attractive? And embarassingly, I can see her pov. I could listen to him talk for a very long time, even though I don't agree with him

[HixieRice]

Absolutely! Can't believe he's married, though, he reacted like a 15 year old boy

[HixieRice]

And yes, he is quite sweet

[JeffsanArsehole]

"Do please excuse me Arabella but I think I've come"

[CheekyMaleekey]

Ugh! You're all mad!

[SoupDragon]

I only know him from HIGNFY but I always think how nice he seems and what a good sport he must be to take all the banter thrown at him

[LucilleBluth]

He's like a thinner, nerdier David Mitchell ;)

[Tapirs]

Nooooooooo.

[JumpandScore]

Oh yes, he's definitely her "type". I like Dm a little too much too

I was waiting for the punch line when he said his bit about Corbyn. Do you think that was all done to set up Ian's line, or was he just being a thoroughly decent chap?

[Tapirs]

David Mitchell I understand. JRM definitely not.

[flustercuck]

I thought he was that pillock Redmond...

[CocktailQueen]

He came across very well. Obvious that Paul didn't like him at all. I don't like Paul any more. He looks bored with HIGNFY half the time.

Love Ian.

[JumpandScore]

I thought Paul was on better form tonight. His obvious disdain for Jrm brought him back to life!

[Elendon]

Apologies Jump. I didn't see your post.

I've always found him attractive. I'm a dyed in the wool Labour supporter!

[AnnieNoMouse]

Why is Victoria Coren-Mitchell while David remains just Mitchell?

[mudandmayhem01]

Don't know about rees- mog but my crush on the lovely victoria is reaching new levels.

[Tapirs]

I'm not sure. I've often wondered why she chose to add the Mitchell when she could have stayed as Coren but then it's up to her I suppose.

[JumpandScore]

I think that's the way the double barrelled on marriage is usually dobe, isn't it? I can't think of any men who've taken their wives' name in that way

[herecomesthsun]

I just don't find Tories attractive.

[SoupDragon]

Why is Victoria Coren-Mitchell while David remains just Mitchell?

Because that's what they want to be called I imagine.
What an odd question.

[TiggyD]

VICTORIA AND JACOB SITTING IN A TREE...

[Elendon]

Tiggy

[JumpandScore]

Four kids Hixie, but then he is a Catholic with rather extreme views. Nothing much to like about him and yet...

[AnnieNoMouse]

Oh sorry *SoupDragon" I'll rephrase it. Why did Victoria choose to take on her husband's name as well as her birth name, while her husband chose not to make a similar adjustment? I get that is what she chose to do, my question is why?

[MadeMan]

"When she said she found Rees-Mogg attractive?"

Yeah she is quite attractive.

[PrussianPrue]

YANBU at all! I said I agree and DH reacted with great shock, I think he's lovely and seem totally decent.

I think for the woman to add her husband's surname to hers without a hyphen and without the husband taking it is as some Americans do it, isn't it? I think it's quite a good way.
