To fancy Hugh Grant right now?

[NormanTebbit]

on Question Time. He is brilliant.

Pan - left wing girls always love a public schoolboy too. It would be a landslide for sure.

I remember the Carol Vorderman shambles, Linerunner. I was cringing all the way through.
As for HG standing for election, having been an actor should stand him in very good stead!

Bitter sweet viewing for me.
I just sat there thinking " I flashed my tits at him"....

HG looked very hot!! DD's tie was beyond hideous!!!

Pag you naughty naughty girl!

Yummy. With a spoon.

But he has always been lovely. Also think he gets better with age.

in my defence it was an accident Unfortunately it also wasn't Hugh......

Wish I'd known it was being filmed in Basingstoke, my Mum has connections in the building they filmed it in, I could have popped down there to see him !!!

Pan - your video clip is awesome

I can tell you what happened after the scream too

HG walks into the house, puts his bag down in the kitchen, puts his glasses on, notices me sitting quietly in the sofa, quickly takes glasses off again and walks casually over to me whilst undoing his top shirt button......

Oh no, shit, I dreamt that bit

I'm unable to seperate what a person says and what they do, thankfully.
Any man who cheats ( or pays for sex) is automatically off my list, no matter how hot, I go off them in the blink of an eye.
As long as Hugh Jackman doesn't cheat on his wife, my world is safe.

Not David Dimbleby, Pag? Surely not Shirley?

I'd vote for him

SWC.... I think you're wrong on so many levels.

Hugh may have been victim of the press....not sure his story about sleeping with a prostitute was public interest either.

The public wouldn't have an appetite if the stories weren't printed.

Whoa, you are comparing the what expose on that care home, something that was in the public interest, with HG's sex life, which is interesting to the public. There is a big difference smallwhitecat. Huge.

Sorry, rushed post - that expose on the care home, is what I meant. Good investigative journalism does indeed use covert means which may break the law or code of conduct but only if it is in the public interest. The whole point is that NOTW journos and editors crossed that moral line.

Hugh, I think he had some very valid points, took some flak and appeared genuine in his answers, which pleasantly surprised me.

Jon Gaunt`s boomed his views and made them forcibly louder to make then sound plausible, almost bullish - I wanted to bash on the head with a broom! Frankly laughable when he made snide remarks about Hugh, only making himself look foolish.

Shirley Williams - simply inspiring.

Did anyone catch Shirl's trouser joke? At the end of Gaunt & Grant's "keep it in your trousers" exchange, she mentioned the PCC having nothing in theirs...

ThisIsANiceCage - I noticed that one! It really made me laugh. Was emailing about the programme with a friend and he was convinced she hadn't said it deliberately but I was (and am) certain that she did - especially with that little twinkle in her eye and smile about her!

News International has very deliberately been creating new consumer markets.

It has cleverly cultivated a sense of entitlement in some consumers - a feeling that they, the free-market consumer, are in some way entitled to purchase private facts about public figures - which then crossed the line to become private facts about non-public figures.

Totally agree smallwhitecat and I'd love to see if all the mnetters on here who have been NOTW bashing will now also start boycotting their favourite read Mail Online plus any other purveyor of sleb gossip.

I agree SWC but don't you think the tabloids have behaved with appalling arrogance by hacking phones of what looks like everyone associated with a story?

I really think some of the heart has gone from tabloid journalism, they used to stick up for the little guy, air the concerns of working people, and no not perfect but they would routinely break stories which mattered - human interest stories, crime, corruption.
Now they treat the little guy, the person caught up in events in the most horrible way possible, with so littlew respect.

I think a whole generation has grown up without that sort of tabloid journalism and instead think of tabloids as a route to news about screws.
