I really want to know who this is too
The actor mentioned in the link is not famous enough surely?

Nancy66 · 16/04/2011 13:42

The actor is HB, the footballer is RG...100%

AlanTitWank · 16/04/2011 14:04

Nancy didn't RG have an issue with DV against DB (blonde presenter) when he was dating her?

Nancy66 · 16/04/2011 14:13

i think there was an incident - not DB though - the other one DM

ceebeegeebies · 16/04/2011 14:18

ooh I had totally forgotten about him dating DB - don't know who DM is though??

Nancy66 · 16/04/2011 14:23

the blonde - primrose hill set....

ceebeegeebies · 16/04/2011 14:36

Was she in Hollyoaks and has she got a different surname now??

Nancy66 · 16/04/2011 14:38

yes, that's the one

ceebeegeebies · 16/04/2011 14:40

I don't remember that at all and I thought my 'sleb' knowledge was quite comprehensive Grin

MarieFromStMoritz · 16/04/2011 15:12

So, do we think DT is the pregnant one in the "wait 6 months" story?

ceebeegeebies · 16/04/2011 15:15

Ooh I hadn't thought of that but I like your thinking - baby due in May, mystery father, links to the Beckhams......me thinks you might be onto something there!!!

Villette · 16/04/2011 15:17

I think everyone has got the actor now but there is a naughty piece in today's Telegraph where the drama critic Tim Walker recalls a discussion he had after the premiere of the musical "Betty Blue Eyes" with Julian Fellowes of "Gosford Park" and "Downton Abbey" fame when they discussed people covering up secrets. It is supposed to relate to the plot of the musical based on Alan Bennett's screenplay "A Private Function" but for no particular reason the name of one of the actors in "Downton Abbey" is referenced.

kittya · 16/04/2011 15:26

Please can someone tell me who DT is please!

MarieFromStMoritz · 16/04/2011 15:28

She was in Hollyoaks. She shares her first name with someone who used to present a popular reality show.

HazeltheMcWitch · 16/04/2011 16:39

Marie, like your thinking on the wait 6 months thing....
Sadly (for her, I don't mean this in any way as a judgypants comment), she had custody of her 1st child awarded to the father, didn't she.
She's meant to be doing much better now, form what I hear.

kittya · 16/04/2011 17:18

And DM and DB is?? And this has nothing to do with the original thread? I can't cope with footballers. I think there is a thread
already dealing with it. And, we've put the posh actor to rest? That's it then isn't it? I can get in the bath now!

MarieFromStMoritz · 16/04/2011 17:49

DM was her maiden name.

Alouiseg · 16/04/2011 19:53

So is DB the father of DT's baby?

Confuzzled

sadsad · 16/04/2011 20:11

Ha, ha - so RG is the footballer, HB is the actor and DB is DT's baby's father ...

Must be time for another scandal :)

new2cm · 16/04/2011 20:36

Top British actor and world famous celebraty?

I had never heard of HB until I read this thread! But then again, I do not watch TV. I do go to the cinema once month and I have never heard or seen HB.

Sigh. I think it's someone else.

ValiumBandwitch · 16/04/2011 20:47

Now we know who it is,,,,,, can we discuss on what grounds he was able to have the story quoshed. or super injuunctioned!

ValiumBandwitch · 16/04/2011 20:48

I mean, yes I know he's married, but that can't be it can it. Your honour, I'm married - this musn't come out. Confused There must be more to it/ He must have had a reason he gave to the judge.

Nancy66 · 16/04/2011 21:07

it's not a super-injunction - a super-injunction can't even be reported - so members of the public would never know it existed anyway.

ValiumBandwitch · 16/04/2011 21:45

ah right. does anybody know why he got the judge to allow it?

chipstick10 · 16/04/2011 21:49

If it is HB is he really a prolific actor of his generation!!!!! Personally i think not.
