more than just that one dodgy, ill fitting white jacket with shoulder pads that looks like it's been in her wardrobe since 1982 that she always wears?

They film about six Eggheads a day and they change clothes in between to make it look like they don't.

So why they insist of the Mighty Devey wearing That Jacket all the time god only knows.

When she recently did some tv interviews she had a much softer image I noticed.

Surprised no one has mentioned the secret millionaire she was on. She came across well then, too.

LineRunner · 06/09/2011 16:40

Ah, Vivi, I get now it about the editing! Thank you.

Didn't see the Secret Millionaire.

She is brilliant, and on her website she dresses very differently and looks much younger.

Anyone remember the programme where a hairdresser had the cheek to refer to Deborah Meaden's highlights. She cut him dead with something like "My hair is NOT highlighted, this is the natural colour!!".

Yep righ Debs, whatever you say...

Ha Lucy I remember that, wasn't he trying to sell some stupid fast haircut idea or something?

I think she is great but I can't believe I never noticed they wear the same clothes all series!

She does look much better on her website but the whole time I have just wondered why she doesn't get a bloody stylist, she can clearly afford it.

Peters socks are annoying. He always wears bright ones in a 'look how kerazy I can be', but its just annoying.

And Evan Davies wears a ring on his index finger which makes my teeth itch.

Huffythetantrumslayer · 06/09/2011 17:59

I love Hilary devay too, she's fab. Deborah meaden is a cow. Imo.

Voidka · 06/09/2011 18:01

What I hate most about DD now that there are two women is that whenever one says something they immediately cut to the other to see if she is pulling a face.

I like Deborah Meaden though - she has principles and says what she thinks which I like. I sometimes find myself doing her finger thing too.

MissWanksAlot · 06/09/2011 18:03

Has anyone ever seen the film The Witches?? Don't you think Hilary looks like the grand high witch??!!

MrsBuntyCuldeSacPariah2 · 06/09/2011 18:04

Fermitt, I did actually earlier in the thread, but here's a couple more:
All Top Gear presenters have serious issues when it comes to their clothes, especially Clarkson.
Agree wholeheartedly with Peter Jones' rebellious sock statement, Voidka.
Jonathon Ross - need I say more?

Next time one of the blokes rocks up in the sartorial equivalent of Elvis's jumpsuit, I'll comment on that. Until then, Ms Devaney shall bear the brunt.

Ooh just googled as I don't watch DD. She was a Secret Millionaire! I liked her on that.

This household has been known to remark about HD's resembelence to Cruella De Vil :o

I always just end up wondering how many a day you have to smoke to get a voice like that.

carabos · 06/09/2011 20:56

Didn't she give up the smoking when she had the stroke?

SnapesMistress · 06/09/2011 22:44

No idea, just assumed she must smoke with a voice that gravelly.

Mrsperkytits · 06/09/2011 22:48

Surely she is a he?

TheShmoz · 06/09/2011 22:53

Harry Enfield will have a field day, can't wait Grin
