I hope he was the one that called time and didn't let her give his self-esteem a further kicking.

He is apparently a very nice chap.

My two also have exceptionally gorgeous hair, so it's good to know that Hair Envy wouldn't be a thing.

You lot are strange.

Colin Firth is slightly constipated and pudding-y looking, and as Wet Darcy, he just looked flustered, as though he had just discovered he had toilet paper stick to his shoe at the BAFTAs.

Genuinely, I don’t get it, and I have my own off-piste tastes...

Jocasta2018 · 13/12/2019 22:08

Love Actually is on ITV2. Just saying.
Mr Firth jumps in yet another lake...

JaneJeffer · 13/12/2019 22:49

Natural you need to gaze into his beautiful eyes.

LittleSweet · 13/12/2019 22:52

Ha Jellyfishandshells, I thought of him in Another Country.

Mammyloveswine · 13/12/2019 22:56

God the lover is awful!

I'll have mr Darcy anyday!

justanothernomaj · 13/12/2019 23:12

I had a poster of him from Another Country on my wardrobe. In a fair isle tank top. Playing a posh boy communist. I had many impure thoughts indeed...

ChessieFL · 14/12/2019 00:13

Can I join the queue? Sadly I don’t live anywhere near Chiswick, but I’m willing to travel...

Shockers · 14/12/2019 00:46

I genuinely think some time up north might help. My spare room is yours, Colin.

Seriously though, it’s sad to see a marriage break down.

Warmfirechocolate · 14/12/2019 01:04

Yes I would.

I’ve had two absolute wolves and I now need a gentleman.

Colin if you are reading this I am really good in bed - just pm me!

Have to say he doesn’t look like he’s dead sexy but - with the right woman - ME - I would definitely spice him up.

You deserve it Colin. You’re worth it. (Flicks hair).

GruffaIoChrimbo · 14/12/2019 01:13

@joyfullittlehippo that is a cool claim to fame. How long did that scene take to film/choreograph? I am a film geek
Did Matthew Vaughn direct it or was it a bloke i/c of stunts?
Which of the 51 victims were you?! Grin
What else have you extra-ed in? nosey, much

For context to others, the scene (but contains nothing but violence and is shown here out of context)

GruffaIoChrimbo · 14/12/2019 01:16

And Livia's ex-lover looked like John Torrode ate all the mince pies.

GruffaIoChrimbo · 14/12/2019 01:21

Although being a huge fan of Boss Hoss I preferred this one.
I do confess, I do admire Mr Firth for being able to do a Liam Neeson and get into action movies aged 54.

BearSoFair · 14/12/2019 09:31

I share a birthday with him (different year) surely that counts for something and I should be allowed to skip the queue Grin

Horsemad · 14/12/2019 09:32

Oh I adore CF. ♥️

Don't think the lover looks anywhere as good as him, what was the wife thinking of?? 😮

Mind you, I do quite fancy John Torode too in a hate you/fancy you type of way...

ForalltheSaints · 14/12/2019 09:35

I am a man. Should I be letting the single woman I know about this? Or would you like me to keep it to myself so the queue does not lengthen?

Warmfirechocolate · 14/12/2019 10:35

@forallsaints keep it to yourself. I can’t bat off too much competition now I’m not 21.

Are you single?

AmericanHousewifeFan · 14/12/2019 11:01

Can I join the queue? I feel I should be at least in the first 10 seeing as I was literally (using the word correctly) thinking about him 2 minutes before seeing this thread.

I'll wait at the back though Grin

smemorata · 14/12/2019 11:37

He went to the same school as me

Me too! I want to join the queue - but only to ask him why, seeing as we both applied for Italian citizenship after Brexit, is he now an Italian citizen but I am still waiting......and waiting.....Grin

IcedPurple · 14/12/2019 18:11

Have to say I agree with the previous poster who said he now looks like a little old lady running a haberdasher's shop. He was attractive enough - if you go for that type - until about 10 years ago, but not anymore.

But clearly I'm in the minority here!

TimeIhadaNameChange · 14/12/2019 20:19

Sorry, he's mine and I'm not sharing.

(Have had a really crap evening so I think I deserve him all to myself, personally!)
