flaunting such obviously enhanced knorks and a wasp waist suitable for Dita Von Teese on Britain's Got Talent tonight! Why oh why do we have to watch intelligent female tv presenters pandering to agism and sexism on TV in this way in the 21st Century? For once I feel genuinely upset.... Sad

I don't think any of it is fakery though she strikes me as the sort who wold talk about it if she had had work done

Well I remember her from a few years back and even good underwiring on a National Treasure achieves that much Hmm

Pride of Britain? I'm just jealous, brains boobs and butt. And also concerned a little that she might pass out!

I don't think she has had her boobs done has she? Personally I think she looks pretty good!

Magna · 10/11/2010 21:00

DH and I both sat here at the same time said "where has she got those from". I really don't remember them being like that.

I can't see through the tears from the girl who had all the transplants meeting her reciever of her heart. When the kleenex takes effect I'll look at her boobs for you Wink

Sidge · 10/11/2010 21:02

I'm not sure they're enhanced, I think she's just wearing a very shaped and boned corset.

Peculiarjulia · 10/11/2010 21:04

I was going to post the same thing! I'm a bit embarrassed for her. If they're not fake, they look bloomin' fake & why would a supposedly intelligent woman like Carol think that was an appropriate look for this show?

waterbaby100 · 10/11/2010 21:05

has she had work then? Missed that.

LadyBlaBlah · 10/11/2010 21:06

Her arms look too big for her waist

Weird

BCBG · 10/11/2010 21:09

But even if they aren't fake - and I think they are - what does her fetish doll look tell us about the position of female presenters on TV today? I don't see Bill Turnball or Matt Baker turning out in anything half as eye catching, do you? Hmm

It tells us she is 50 but a combination of good diet genes and exercise have made her feel uber confident and able to wear a very structured dress for a night out.

BCBG · 10/11/2010 21:39

My point is this is not just 'a night out' but mainstream telly and the message is an overtly sexual rather than stylish one - each to his own, though - heigh ho Confused

if she looked rough everyone would comment....cant win really can she!?

stleger · 10/11/2010 21:42

I have just turned over to chech this out. Dh was a big fan, but went off her when she started advertising sub prime finance - she would hve been able to calculate APR.

stleger · 10/11/2010 21:46

I wonder if Camilla has warned Charles not to peep at Carol's bust! That would be tabloid photo heaven.

IWantToBeAFairyWhenIGrowUp · 10/11/2010 21:51

I think she looks great.

This show has me sobbing every year.

QuizteamBleakley · 10/11/2010 22:21

Maybe she's actually lowered her cholesterol...

Appletrees · 10/11/2010 22:25

She looked chronic. Weird outfit. What is it with presenters. They live on a planet far away from normality

Nancy66 · 11/11/2010 00:17

CV has had A LOT of work done including boob job - lots of facial work too.

midlandsmumof4 · 11/11/2010 00:32

Loved the show. Her boobs looked huge & waist quite small due to the corset thingy I think. She can afford to look like she does fake or not.........

Heracles · 11/11/2010 02:58

She's not intellent; did you not catch her on Question Time, the kneejerk buffoon...?

badfairy · 11/11/2010 10:19

I thought she looked great ! Grin
