It does make you wonder how cool you have to be exactly to be considered cool at Cambridge.

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 12:13

I know, that's why it's so funny! I'll have to see if I have any pics I can post without outing myself.

MitzyLeFrouf · 16/06/2016 12:13

the sort of man who couldn't see a plate of sausages without doing some sort of gesture for the ladies.

Oh why does that not surprise me!

Goingtobeawesome · 16/06/2016 12:15

Photos look fake.

I don't think much of her but it's not on she's ridiculed for having several relationships. Men don't get the same grief.

Hiddenaspie1973 · 16/06/2016 12:16

I think he is a gay man and it's a publicity stunt.
TS just get a revolving door and be done with it. Smile

VagueIdeas · 16/06/2016 12:16

Almost everyone Taylor's been out with has gay rumours attached to them. I mean Jake Gyllenhal?

And Taylor Lautner. And Harry Styles. Any more?

LilaTheTiger · 16/06/2016 12:16

I did like him in The Night Manager, but I just googled him to check and now I don't.

Carry on Taylor, he's all yours Grin

AndYourBirdCanSing · 16/06/2016 12:16

Oh, I just twigged it's Loki! I fidn't know who he was. DH said the other day that the bloke who played Loki is up for Bond- I think I surprised him with my outrage. He is NOT Bond. And I don't even particulary like Bond.

I want Idris Elba

Men like Bradley Cooper do. His relationships never seem legit either.

It's the fakeness that makes (most) people ridicule, not the fact she's been out with loads of guys.

freshprincess · 16/06/2016 12:20

I saw a thing on Twitter, which was a link to the photos with the caption 'TH comes out'. Grin Given TS's reputation for having 'gay' bfs.

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 12:22

The answer is: not very! Most of us liked drinking silly drinks and going to the rubbish night clubs, no pretension. But there were a few college ENTS officers who liked to try to be a bit cool (Kings College was very very coool) and invite proper artists rather than East 17 or the normal silly nonsense we had. I guess Dan had his Footlights rep as well.

My favourite ultimate uncool performance there was when they did Copacabana and Aisling ONeil (Martin ONeil the football manager's daughter) was Lola, complete with the plastic fruit hat. She tried to be cool after that, but it never worked..

DaleMaily · 16/06/2016 12:27

Ooh, burn mitzy (re less edge than aled jones). But very fair point Grin

I went to a university with hardly any clubs, let alone ones where people could blackball potential members, so I didn't realise that existed anymore. Was it bullingdon-esque?

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 12:34

No, the Bullingdon would be more like a dining society in Cambridge, but Oxford is much posher than Cambridge. These have their own physical premises, and one is sporting, the other social.

When I said clubs in my last post I meant your common crap cheesey nightclub you get in any student town, which was what I frequented.

SorrelForbes · 16/06/2016 12:35

TH was fab as Henry V in The Hollow Crown though...

DaleMaily · 16/06/2016 12:47

I see, thanks for clarifying. Yes, I was referring to your post a few pages back.

Yeah he was good Sorrel.

ManonLescaut · 16/06/2016 12:48

No-one at Cambridge is cool. I speak from experience.

MrsArthurShappey · 16/06/2016 12:48

That's the annoying thing, Sorrel, he is a good actor! It's this act he puts on 'off-stage' that's rubbish.

ManonLescaut · 16/06/2016 12:50

I think he'd be fine if he stuck to Shakespeare.

It's singing, impressions and Bond shit that's not on. He's like a very tall Shirley Temple.

TreadSoftlyOnMyDreams · 16/06/2016 12:50

Maybe Tom is the beard for Taylor?

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 12:50

Sorry, yes in that post I meant members clubs that have their own premises with a bar and food, where they hold parties.

Dining societies don't have their own premises and are usually college or sporting team based. They have outings and meet societies of the opposite sex at different colleges or restaurants for dinner...and then go to a crap nightclub.

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 12:52

Yes, but it thought it was. Especially the bar with the sickle and hammer painted on the wall..

Donatellalymanmoss · 16/06/2016 13:41

Back to Calvin Harris, he seems like a nice guy. I may or may not have downloaded the snapchat app purely to watch him ride his exercise bike topless Blush
