I want to BE her

Don't we all? In a far more accommodating version, perhaps, so as not to upset the poor lamb too much in case he gets in a paddy..

The hat look okay there, LadyD. but in that scene where he is holding the fruit basket, it looks a bit silly. Maybe it's on crooked or summat.

Maud.

::looks stern::

I was trying to avoid such indelicate performances myself by limiting MrT to static images.

Moving, talking MrT is not helping my current state of mind.

::overdosed on Gizzy emoticon::

Your wish is my command!

It's only a short one though, it just reached a good finishing point slightly before I'd intended it to.

It's actually been quite a while since I watched N&S all the way through (as opposed to clips from YT) and, as far as I can remember, this is the first time I've watched it on the Supermassive Black TV, which affords even more opportunities for swooning appreciated the finely-nuanced acting.

And don't diss the hat. My dear, dear John is quite the natty dresser.

Just look at how beautifully he doffs his hat, though.

will not help those of us suffering from a Gizzy fixation, but it is just breathtaking (imho anyway!)

Oo-er.

::swoons::

That glower.

I suppose in the context of the film, it's not so bad a hat, at that. Margaret's is terribly ugly.

Oh Spiro, poor Gizzy. I have gone all upset now, and I shouldn't be wanting to give a bad man like him a cuddle.

That was totally unexpected.

Oh my, LadyDamerel.

::Drops the smoothing iron on the Aubusson::

He's just done some magnificent glowering on being told by Mr Bell that Lennox 'takes an interest' in Margaret.

I'll attend to Gizzy later (although not in the way that Massive would).

::too overcome to speak::

::takes deep sniff of vinaigrette::

Even without sound that is breathtaking, Spiro.

I always want to give Gizzy a big cuddle but now I am having very impure thoughts about how I could cheer him up.

::goes for cold shower::

It is lovely isn't it Lady D?

I have a practical question. How does MrT avoid the dreaded 'hat hair' when he removes his hat in this scene?

Even with Nurse's best efforts, my hair is woefully crushed when I remove my bonnet.

That was totally unexpected.

It came as a bit of a surprise to me too tbh - one of those lovely occasions when the characters took over my brain and did their own thing entirely. I literally didn't know it was coming until I wrote it - very weird but I love it when that happens !

Probably just as well as am not likely to get any further for a few days.

Ahhh. It's yonks since we had You Can Keep Your Hat On. Are there any other classics to which we haven't yet introduced LadyDamerel? We've had the BWWMD, I know.

Sad, lovely vid, Spiro.

If we're getting melancholy, how about which keeps coming back into my mind to haunt me, now and then, ever since i first heard it.

Hahaha, Spiro. And just look at what the Bibliotheque de YT offers .

I hope you realise that any foolish passion for you on my part is entirely over. I'm looking to the future.

::Crashes through floorboards::

I know I ought to know what the BWWetc should stand for but all these vids are confuddling my poor brain cell.

How about this one?

It's the Barry White Weapon of Mass Destruction, so called because nothing and no-one is standing at the end of it.

BWWMD = Barry White Weapon of Mass Destruction.

With coming a close second, for me anyway!

Christ on a bike, health warning is about right.

If I watch any more of these I will be found in a small charred heap on the drawing room floor so for my own safety I am going to bed.

Night all!

Apologies for the delay. I've been down to the basement archive. I suspect the answer to LadyDamerel's hat hair question is that he has obliging ladies to zhuzh up his hair for him between takes.
