Exactly - a flavour! Thank you :)

Spiro, bless you, but you won't think he looks like him even on a full PC screen, nobody does :)

SupermassiveLBD · 20/07/2011 11:05

It's partly the way he holds his head

TheSmallPrint · 20/07/2011 12:24

The tagline 'should have gone to Spec Savers' comes to mind Twigs. For you not him, Grin can't see it myself and am now crushed with disappointment! You HJ lookalike was good though

SupermassiveLBD · 20/07/2011 12:27

At least we don't need to be jealous of Twigs now, as well as Heather Smile

PassTheTwiglets · 20/07/2011 12:30

LOL, Small! :o

He is very, very lovely and I wish he could've been MissTwigs' teacher forever - not just for hormonal reasons, honestly :) My friends think I am absolutely mad to quite fancy him - he's very, um, in touch with his feminine side, shall we say :)

Seriously crushing today. Can't stop thinking about the sunglasses-in-the-background bit... may need some form of therapy.

PassTheTwiglets · 20/07/2011 12:30

Of course what I really need, I've just realised, is theRApy :o

PassTheTwiglets · 20/07/2011 12:35

Sunglasses

DumSpiroSpero · 20/07/2011 12:36
PassTheTwiglets · 20/07/2011 12:42

Fair point, well made :o

Oh yukkers, I was so distRActed by the beard and sunglasses that I've only just noticed he is wearing one of those shirts I hate, where they have a white collar and a coloured 'body'.

DumSpiroSpero · 20/07/2011 12:46

I'm not that he is Twigs. have just looked at the stills and I think his jacket is just casting a shadow on the rest of the shirt?

TheSmallPrint · 20/07/2011 13:22

I'm hoping that's just shadow Twigster.,

TheSmallPrint · 20/07/2011 13:23

Very appropriate song for the academy Spiro!

That's odd, I never saw your shadow post when I posted Confused

TheSmallPrint · 20/07/2011 13:28

Just a quick question, when that interviewer asks him about the olympics he says he's not going to be there he's going to be on the other side of the... and then it sounds like the film has been edited and then he says the city is being transformed ..

Where is he going to be? Wink

OP posts:
PassTheTwiglets · 20/07/2011 13:30

Some stills make it look like a shadow but one doesnt and in one video it is bright white. May have been trick of the light. Hope so!

SupermassiveLBD · 20/07/2011 13:32

Pick, pick, pick Grin

DumSpiroSpero · 20/07/2011 13:35

Hobbit filming isn't due to finish until next May, so allowing for delays and re-shoots I'd imagine there's a strong possibility he won't be back for the Olympics.

(frankly I'd be delighted to be out of the country while the Olympics is going on - wonder if he needs a very personal assistant?)

TheSmallPrint · 20/07/2011 13:51

That first Marvel news vid, I can't hear a word they're saying and all I keep looking at his the fact hald of her face is in shadow.

OP posts:
LadyDamerel · 20/07/2011 13:51

Close inspection using the zoom button shows it is all a grey/off white hue with same colour collar. Don't panic, Twigs Grin.

So, lucky Heathra. She seems a little hysterical over excited on Twitter. Obviously I would be entirely calm and collected if I was in her shoes. Grin

I have decided, on re-inspection of the videos, that I am not going to go to Liverpool despite the fact that there are tickets still available and I could potentially breathe in some of his exhaled carbon dioxide unless he gets rid of the beard. I don't want to see him in the flesh and have said flesh covered by the chin carpet.

DumSpiroSpero · 20/07/2011 13:54

I haven't looked on Twitter yet - am I going to need a sick bag?

SupermassiveLBD · 20/07/2011 13:56
TheSmallPrint · 20/07/2011 13:56

Is there anyway to link to twitter if I'm not on it?

OP posts:
LadyDamerel · 20/07/2011 13:58

Brace yourself Spiro

On his own and the shirt is STRIPY, Twigs.

LadyDamerel · 20/07/2011 13:59

Small, those 2 links in my last post are from Heathra's Tweets so far. I'm sure there's more to come....

SupermassiveLBD · 20/07/2011 14:02

Twigs, worry no more

DumSpiroSpero · 20/07/2011 14:03

He looks lovely in the first one - I can see I'm going to have to put that through Photoshop Grin!
