names jesbitt? Big Man U fan, prob knows WR, has form alledgedly. British rather than English............Just a possibility?

fifitot · 14/04/2011 21:57

Well Northern Irish but yswim.

stressheaderic · 14/04/2011 21:59

Great shout, fifitot. Hmmmm.....

VivaLeBeaver · 14/04/2011 22:00

I was thinking Names Jesbitt as well. Got to be someone Northern as that hooker is from Preston/Manchester way.

VivaLeBeaver · 14/04/2011 22:01

I know he's Irish not northern by birth but did he not live in Manchester? Freezing Toes was set in Manchester. Don't know if he still does?

fifitot · 14/04/2011 22:03

Don't think he lives in Mcr but could have been filming there I suppose. He is in alot of TV and some film. I need to read the original post but the link not working now. Pah!

fifitot · 14/04/2011 22:06

He's not really world famous though - which is how judge described him.

VivaLeBeaver · 14/04/2011 22:09

If you look at his Wiki page he has done a lot of films and has got a part in the new Hobbit film. So could be described as world famous, especially by tabloids. And I'm sure he's very famous in Ireland.

Have been googling and he lives in London now. But I bet he has friends, etc in Manchester after spending so much time there.

Not sure if he's on Twitter.

If you google he has plnety of form.

by all accounts mr nesbitt does not need to pay for it
also he is too well versed as a philanderer to "kiss like a virgin" which is what the prostitute said.....Wink

The cowardly lion had it spot on in the first page of this thread.

WhatsWrongWithYou · 14/04/2011 22:27

Do you mean it's CF??? I was speculating it might be him this afternoon, doesn't seem likely but what do I know?

TheBish · 14/04/2011 22:29

It's supposed to be HB mentioned earlier in the thread (allegedly!)

VivaLeBeaver · 14/04/2011 22:30

Robert Smith was in the Cure. Morrissey was in The Smiths. Grin

Alouiseg · 14/04/2011 22:31

Sorry Viva, not really my genre ;-)

MotherMucca · 14/04/2011 22:32

Alouise, Robert Smith is frontman with The Cure.

I'm talking about Morissey, you know, The Smiths' frontman.

MotherMucca · 14/04/2011 22:33

X-Post Viva.

Morrissey

MotherMucca · 14/04/2011 22:35

DM wife is famous writer.

He is a tweeter.

He has been in a lot of stuff.

teej · 14/04/2011 22:35

actually this has reminded me of a great story. local kids' clothes/toys shop - JN was in shopping. local mum turned round to the shop assistant at the till and said something along the lines of "is that really JN? he's a bit of allright - i SO WOULD". anyway the woman behind her in the queue puts down the items in her hand and storms out of the shop - with JN trailing behind. yes, it was his missus. bless her....

MotherMucca · 14/04/2011 22:36

And he's Northern.

Case rested.

Alouiseg · 14/04/2011 22:36

I know, I know.

Sober as well, can't even blame my muddled thinking on the Gin tonight.

MotherMucca · 14/04/2011 22:49

teej fab story

I don't want it to be DM, by the way, but the evidence is there...

Isn't HB in the closet anyway?

bellabelly · 14/04/2011 22:51

I hope it's not Timothy Spall.
