Vanessa is a middle aged actress who now has a stall selling French Brocante at the local antiques market.

Claude is also overly fond of "ornate" mirrors .... he thinks it adds depth to his small studio flat

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 17:06

Claude would love his home to be featured in an interiors mag.

sadly, it is too naff.

yeahinaminute · 19/07/2007 17:05

Sadly Vulgar - I do !!!

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 17:05

Yeahinaminute -you know Bogden so well!

cameroonmama · 19/07/2007 17:04

Claude is a slightly effiminate French Canadian, who calls everyone dahling and throws themed dinner parties.

He has also painted his sitting room deep red.

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 17:04

Janet wears pop socks under her skirt and they cut into her large calves.

Idris finds Bogden a bit "intense" and is shocked at his poor grasp of medieval history and folklore ...... but he's useful at chipping in on the petrol money and can get a tent up on a windy night

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 17:00

Bogden goes to medieval reinactment fastivals. He dresses up as a wandering minstrel and plays the mandolin.

His real name is Alan and he is friends with Idris.

He likes real ale too.

yeahinaminute · 19/07/2007 16:58

Ah yes - just a small libation for our Idris

His wife Beryl uses the time he's away to feed her bingo habit - woe betide anyone who sits in her "lucky" seat or - Heaven forfend - uses her "lucky" dibber

She can do 20 cards at once and thinks it's outrageous if a newbie wins

Michelle is the pissed, bored bingo caller who gets the calls wrong .... " 2 fat ladies ... 47"

It riles Beryl

Idris is a Morris Dancer - he attends events and folk festivals up and down the country.

He likes a pint of whatever the local brew may be by saying " landlord a pint of your excellent ale and follow that up with a decent ploughmans there's the man ..." He then proceeds to give chapter and verse of Mumming and Morris Dancing myth and legend to poor Steve and Mike who popped in for a quick one on the way home .......

Landlords the length and breadth know of him and dim the lights, lock the doors when Idris is in the area ....

Idris just sighs and drives on to the next pub - unaware that phone calls have been made

Hugh reads Terry Pratchett novels, and spends his weekends and evenings in Games Workshop.

He asked his wife, Stella, to call him 'Vandor the Magnificent' in bed.

She told him to piss off.

ShinyHarryPplHoldingPortkeys · 19/07/2007 16:30

Jackie is a beautician on her second marriage and having an affair with a delivery guy named Stu.

Carol is a dinner lady. She used to be in admin and had big ideas about a career in London but then she got married and had too many children.

Tricia works at the animal sanctuary. She likes to go out clubbing at the weekend but never pulls because, although she doesn't realise it, she always smells of disinfectant.

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 16:27

Olive lets out little involuntary farts when she is cruising the aisles of her local co-op with a shopping trolley on wheels.

EscapeFrom · 19/07/2007 16:17

Fabulous!

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 16:13

Derek's mum must be called Muriel.

PMSL at collections of figures and thimbles.

Derek has made his mum a specially designed display case for the thimbles in his shed.

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 16:10

Joyce serves tea at the "League of Friends' Tea Bar at the local hospital.

She has a smile for everyone.

yeahinaminute · 19/07/2007 16:08

Carole "with an E" has run Buds and Blooms in the High Street for about 25 years. She has been engaged to Derek for 20 of those years - they both still live at home - Carole with her ageing and slightly confused parents and their 12 cats, Derek with his overbearing divorced mother.

Carole is truly fed up arranging flowers for other peoples weddings as Derek has yet to make the momentious decision of actually naming the day due to his mothers inability to live without her little soldier or allow "that so - called girlfriend of yours" to get her hands on Derek or her collection of figurines and thimbles.

Carole lives in hope and strange despair.

bootsmonkey · 19/07/2007 16:08

Spencer is a mans man and hard as nails. He has done three tours in Iraq. He weeps at Animal Hospital.

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 16:07

Yes, Judy smokes too much weed.

bootsmonkey · 19/07/2007 16:07

Judy cultivates cannabis plants in her loft - hence the paranoia

Vulgar · 19/07/2007 16:03

Oh yes, Baz and Judy definitely are made for each other.

Judy doesn't work tho'.

she is too paranoid to leave her flat.
