'very tall Shirley Temple'

Grin

I don't think acclaim on the English stage is enough for Tom. He wants glitz, he wants glamour, he wants as Property has said, everything that Eddie Redmayne has. Especially the Oscar.

Does Eddie and Tom's rivalry remind anyone of another two Eton schoolboys who are battling each other for a particular job? I expect we'll soon Boris and Taylor capering about on some rocks and locking lips.

oops. 7 pages on is a bit late for that reply isn’t it...

Coffeeismycupoftea · 16/06/2016 14:31

Oh my god I can't wait for the photos of those two blondes on a date night/working out together/strolling on a beach.

Go Borlor!

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 14:31

What I would pay to see that!! Brilliant...I wouldn't put it past Boris though!

I don't think Tom will have what Eddie has though. He'll have a very good career, but he's not grounded like Eddie and not as talented, in my opinion. Eddie is obviously very pretty and he's done Burberry etc (not my type) but Tom's looks are more unconventional and although some find him gorgeous, others find him odd looking and unattractive.

Some people find Eddie R odd looking and unattractive... I used to think he's roetty than had a closer look rubber lips.

MitzyLeFrouf · 16/06/2016 14:36

Eddie and Tom are both a bit delicate looking for my taste. I need someone a bit more hale and hearty. Someone who could walk for ten miles with a sheep over each shoulder, whistling merrily as he went. Eddie and Tom wouldn't be able for that, they'd be following behind in a sedan chair fanning themselves.

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 14:37

I know some people do, but I think opinions on his looks are much less split than with Tom, or he'd have had a contract too.

TheSpottedZebra · 16/06/2016 14:37

I'm not really getting the Eddie love to be honest. He looks like a child, and I don't think he's that great of an actor.

TheSpottedZebra · 16/06/2016 14:38

No, Mitzy, Tom would be being cheerful somehow. Singing to the sheep, having a dance off with a stoat. Taking selfies with badgers.

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 14:41

Very true Spotted! Neither are my type either, a bit effete for me.

MitzyLeFrouf · 16/06/2016 14:41

having a dance off with a stoat.

Grin

So true.

And making sure it was being filmed!

Oooh, do you think Swifty will go all Madonna (from the Guy years), and adopt a shitty English accent? And buy a manor house? And talk of how much she loves tea and crumpets?

That would be such fun.

That's the video! I'm clenching so hard.

I hope it all works out for him, he really wants it. If it all goes tits up, he's got so little shame, he'd make a great children's tv presenter. I can just see him with a wildlife themed show, having a dance off with a stoat then chatting to some squirrels..

MrsJayy · 16/06/2016 14:54

Eddie is a bit delicate flower imo he is a bit wafty i think if there is any rivalry between old boys its Cumberbatch vs hiddleston they look like they hate each other

PropertyWidow · 16/06/2016 14:59

I don't know much about Cumberbatch, only seen him in Sherlock, but I think they share the same Young British actor space looks wise, both a bit odd looking, so I could see that, MrsJ.

But they weren't at school or university together, so not directly compared previously as Eddie and Tom were.

MrsJayy · 16/06/2016 15:00

He is hilarious as loki as camp as a row of tents Grin

MrsJayy · 16/06/2016 15:02

Suppose you are right i just dont think they are compariable ER is a different type of wafty actor

UnGoogleable · 16/06/2016 15:20

Oh god that video.

I mean, he's a good dancer... but... the 'brooding eyebrows', the pout.. the desperation just oozes doesn't it.

Yeah I've gone right off him. He's definitely not manly or sexy enough to be Bond. And he's blabbed about wanting it so much that he's not cool enough either.

Loving the insider gossip by the way, tell us more (including George Osbourne!)

DaleMaily · 16/06/2016 15:28

Yes, definitely want more gossip!

I'm reading Amy Poehler's book at the moment and there's a section on wanting things too much. She reckons if you want success/fame/a particular role too too much, people smell the desperation and don't want to give it to you. I think Tom should read it Wink

It reminds me of when Mark Gatiss said he auditioned for the role of Oliver Cromwell's secretary (or something) and he told the casting people he had the biography of him and they were like ohhhhkaayyy... and he didn't get the role.

TheSpottedZebra · 16/06/2016 15:38

I'm ashamed I know this,but Hiddles was at Cumberbatch's wedding.
So either they are quite close, or they are 2 desperate fame junkies.

Or... Both.

DrinkFeckArseGirls · 16/06/2016 15:39

Invertainly dotm remember him blabbling about wanting it so much! Are we talking about the same person?!
