She's misery personified 😅 it was pointed out on here how awkward and poe faced she was and now I can't see anything but her reluctance.

Slightly off topic but does a right cob on mean angry or annoyed? And where is the term used?

"it was pointed out on here how awkward and poe faced she was and now I can't see anything but her reluctance".

Well stop allowing what others point out to inform your own independent decision making process. She is iconic and a great beauty for my generation. Maybe, she is in her 50's now and like all of us older ladies in our 50's- we are true to ourselves. Do you bounce in to work everyday smiling relentlessly at 50+?

Iconic? Where on earth do you get that from?

Having a cob on is to have a grumpy face and attitude. 😠 I think it's probably scouse, la. 😏

Oh well done @Motnight ! [Grin] Did she do an enthusiastic 'pop' or was it a bit flaccid?

😂🤣 It was enthusiastic. But she could have been dubbed 😬

I saw an old Celebrity Chase that she was on and she was really funny , clever , answered loads of correct questions and just the right level of flirty with the Chaser and Bradders .

This was before her 'facial work' though , she looks frozen faced and stern now .

I’m in my 50s and IMO the only iconic thing about her was her lack of acting ability and her affinity for marrying pop stars

God this. Never understood why she was famous at all...apart from men liked seeing her pants or whatever.
