The first time I'd even heard of TH was The Night Manager. I thought he was gorgeous.

Then I saw him on Graham Norton, and I was.... disappointed. The try-hard desperation to be liked, and popular, and successful was palpable.

Didn't realise he was in school with Eddie R, I guess that stings. But Eddie R is an exceptionally good actor, and gorgeous, and keeps himself low key and classy. You'd never see him pulling a publicity stunt with Taylor Swift.

I loved that tweet on the Huffington Post link above: "Tom Hiddleston and Taylor Swift seem like a couple who would ask you to please not put your feet on the furniture." Grin

OK stop being mean about TH now just because he's nice.

Well, I'm certain he doesnt care but I think most people who knew the two at Cambridge would confirm! He was black balled from a club there that he wanted to join as people found him annoying, which I think was unfair.

Dan Stevens was also there at the same time as me. He was very cooool, makes it hilarious watching him in the pretty uncool Downton and Night at the Museum..

No no, carry on!

I see a lovely house. a white picket fence and loads of lovely moustaches playing in the yard...

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 16/06/2016 11:03

Arf at moustaches

A1Sharon · 16/06/2016 11:04

I agree Purple, they never go for a well known,obvious, in the media-type for Bond.
The one person I think is definitely not going to be Bond is TH.

Queenbean · 16/06/2016 11:07

I love Swifty. She is glorious.

A total and utter beard, but glorious.

Coffeeismycupoftea · 16/06/2016 11:08

More PropertyWidow more! Love the Dan Stevens titbit.

In return I'll try to dredge up something about the far less glamorous and much older people I was at Oxford with. But really, you don't want to know anything about George Osborne do you?

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 16/06/2016 11:09

Tom Hiddlestone looks like Daniel Craig's less buff and less successful cousin. He cannot be Bond. He's not cool enough and he tries too hard.

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 16/06/2016 11:11

I want to know about the time George Osborne wet his pants in a particularly scary initiation for an exclusive club please Coffee.

Perhaps he had to go in and buy something in a Kwik Save?

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 11:12

Dan was very into drum and bass, wearing big baggy trousers and being pretty naughty. Definitely not how I thought his career would go!

Property you magnificent bastard, tell us more!

I was shocked when I saw Dan Stevens was going to be the Beast but I can't wait to see it.

Just5minswithDacre · 16/06/2016 11:22

The characterisation and character motivation was actually very poor. He falls in love with beautiful women because they are beautiful and then works desperately to rescue them despite one already being dead and the other only being in danger because of his actions

All John le Carre heroes do that. It works for me

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 11:24

He was a nice guy, just a bit aloof at times. And I like house, so didn't get a lot of the crusty drum and base weirdness!

I didn't know he was going to be the Beast, very amusing..

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 16/06/2016 11:25

Not George Smiley. He is cool.

TheLittleFoxes · 16/06/2016 11:28

Oh dear god, has anyone seen the photo of him leaning his head of her shoulder and looking all soulful? I cannot stop laughing. I think he's royally fucked up his career with this stunt.

Just5minswithDacre · 16/06/2016 11:29

Even he accepts incredible pain for his love of Lady Anne Moving

Still, DH is very good at taking the bins out so I mustn't grumble Grin

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 16/06/2016 11:30

Dan Stevems looks like Calvin Harris. Taylor should move onto him and leave TH alone.

ManonLescaut · 16/06/2016 11:33

Agreed. Not goodlooking or cool enough. Too spindly and awkward.

His performances on Graham Norton were the most toe-curling I've ever seen.

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 11:33

Dan has some lovely children with his pretty wife, so I think that ship may have sailed. Now, she would definitely not have been his type at university, but maybe in his Beast incarnation?! Who knows.

Just5minswithDacre · 16/06/2016 11:35

Oh leave poor Tom alone. He's got a lovely bum and soulful eyes. What more do you want, you big bunch of vipers? Smile
