Just in case no one opens a better one

New Lucas vid just been tweeted at me...don't know if it's been mentioned here yet!

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 12/01/2011 22:30

I'm aware that Alec White does not necessarily qualify as totty - that was why I added (as such)...

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 12/01/2011 22:34

However they did give Alec W some character development in that last eppy, not much, but in an episode that was pretty crammed I think that they would not have done so without good reason.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 12/01/2011 22:34

So both of us were thinking of Lucas,Techno. How do you rate Sinatra lite, then? I suppose he might improve with time. Not too bad now either, given there'll never be any more of the real thing.
Anyone else a Buble fan?

I have been noticing eyelashes, recently. Even without the Maybelline, they are quite swoon-worthy

Ah, Fix You. The vid that made me change my mind about Coldplay.

Gosh, Phoenix, that one is bleak. And what a pity that she didn't use the spellchecker.

Zaf was very pretty too wasn't he?

Theresaholeinyourmind · 12/01/2011 22:45

I think it's the line:
''Lights will guide you home'' that gets me where I live...

Poor Lucas, I couldn't watch that new vid till the end. I get so wrapped up in them all, silly fool that I am.

Anyone know if there are any other Coldplay songs that are as good as this?

OP posts:
LaVieEnTechnicolor · 12/01/2011 22:45

I seldom think of Lucas, Theresa, but am aware that if I only bring Thornton resources to our seminars, people will soon throw things at me get bored. I know nothing about Mr Buble but was attracted to that vid by the song. Tell me about him. Is he fit even to be mentioned in the same breath as Francis Albert?

Eyelashes now? They're seen to good effect here.

Right. I need an early night with a good book. Sweet Maybelline dreams. A domani.

PassTheTwiglets · 12/01/2011 22:48

Night, techno!

Mr Buble - I don't know much about him but occasionally I hear a song on the radio that I like and it turns out to be him.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 12/01/2011 22:48

Goodnight Techno, hope your hand feels better tomorrow.

I know nothing about Michael Buble, I have seen him in passing on telly about twice and occasionally hear him on the radio etc etc. He seems quite pleasant, I like swing anyway. But no one is like FAS.

::Looks back at you::

Really Twiggy? My boat remains unfloated, but chacun a son gout.

Theresa - I will be waiting for answers to your Coldplay question too. I have previously dismissed them for being too whiney and plinky-plinky.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 12/01/2011 22:50

Great minds think alike on Buble, then,
Twigs Grin

What a lucky girl you were with all your DVDs, I hope Phoenix has the same luck. It was her with the next birthday, wasn't it?

OP posts:
PassTheTwiglets · 12/01/2011 22:53

Yep, Phoenix is next week. I only really know the "I just haven't met you yet" song but I really like that.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 12/01/2011 23:02

I must have a look on YT for some more Coldplay, then, sometime. And for Buble. YT is so good for sampling stuff, isn't it? I never realised before just how much there was on there.

At the moment I am trying to get emails done and can only concentrate on them and on here, properly.

PassTheTwiglets · 12/01/2011 23:17

Well I think to head Northwards. Night, everyone!

PassTheTwiglets · 12/01/2011 23:18

Oh... er... paging Dr Freud, paging Dr Freud... :o

(I just meant North as in 'upstairs to bed'!)

PhoenixRisingFromTheAshes · 12/01/2011 23:19

Shattered- to bed - night

Theresaholeinyourmind · 12/01/2011 23:25

ROFL Dr Freud and Twiga. Night night!
Why so tired Phoenix? I hope you sleep well with pleasant dreams.

As for me
''I have promises to keep
And miles to go before I sleep.''

See you all tomorrow.

Morning! I missed loads last night! Had a headache so thought I'd take a break from the screen.

Russian lapdancer is 7.7, Twigs. I know what you mean about that bit - another example of female emancipation going out the window - if I was an actress I'd have paid them for that part Grin!

Re Alec - unless they're going to introduce someone else, I can't see another option for head of Section D. He's no MrA but I have seen him in other things - he's a good actor and quite sexy once he's scrubbed up. Certainly more totty potential than Dimitri anyway, who's a nice bloke but definitely more of a boy than a man imo.

I can't stand Coldplay, but 'Fix You' always gets to me. I saw a documentary a few years about about a singing group in America made up of elderly people that sang pop songs. Two of the old guys were rehearsing to sing it as a duet and one died before the performance, but the other one (who was not in great health himself) got up on stage on his own and sang it as a tribute to his mate Sad.

It's the 'tears streaming down your face, when you lose something you cannot replace' bit that never fails to set me off.

As for Buble - he's great but Sinatra cannot be compared to anybody imo.

MrsLucasNorth · 13/01/2011 12:17

I thought this was our 10th thread - it's our 11th! Grin

Theresaholeinyourmind · 13/01/2011 12:32

Hello, all. Sorry to hear you had a headache, MrsLN. they are not pleasant.

Well, RH 2.1 on the telly this morning and all I can say is Guy of Gisborne is a very naughty man. Not exactly soft and cuddly and likeable if you didn't know more but still I so would...

We had the famous BEG (wonder what he'd think if he knew that centuries hence, grown women would be thudding at the very idea) and "See you on the dark side" and I am now wondering if I can get away with watching it when it's on again later...

Just checking in and out again. I couldn't sleep last night for worrying about how behind I am getting with my work Sad.

TheSmallPrint · 13/01/2011 14:45

does anyone know which episode the casino bit is in of RH?

Theresaholeinyourmind · 13/01/2011 15:02

Small, its S2.2. I am looking forward to that, he looks so gorgeous on horseback in that one, with Marion riding behind him. Just like Sir Lancelot in a pre-Raphaelite painting
