You know Hyacinth Bucket. I'm more like her sister, Daisy. The one married to Onslow.

Who is the man at the bar at the end of the Harry Enfield, 'considerably richer than you' sketch?

I love her. My mates used to call me margot in the 90s as I was often swanning around in a maxi dress and head scarf in my Ibiza haze Grin. Now I fear I am more barbara

TheMonster · 08/07/2012 13:09

I'd love to look like her.

SoleSource · 08/07/2012 13:17

Margo was one formidable Lady. :)

I'm more like Patsy Stone from Ab.Fab.

Especially during the Grin wine tasting scene.

TeaOneSugar · 08/07/2012 13:29

I love Margot.

No kids, no job, a cleaner and a gardener, what a life :)

KneesoftheBee · 08/07/2012 13:31

Mrsjay I once went home on the back of a builders truck. It was pouring down with rain and I was trying to light a fag. Blush

I am now, of course, a pillar of the community

Fuddlemuddler · 08/07/2012 13:53

Who is the actor at the end of this clip?

Charliefox · 08/07/2012 13:57

I'd like to have Margots norks. Vair naice!

iklboo · 08/07/2012 14:01

Think the actor is Mark Arden. He was in London's Burning for years.

Sparklingbrook · 08/07/2012 14:02

Ooh thank you iklboo. I have started a thread asking if anyone knew for Fuddle. Smile

Fuddlemuddler · 08/07/2012 14:04

It is someone not really that famous called Mark Arden. I have only just realised why I became so obsesses about finding out. I sat in the front row of a comedy thing he did in the eighties and I was pulled up onto the stage (there wasn't a stage; it was in a tiny art centre) and became part of their show when I was a sheep who was shagged from behind. I have never, ever sat in the front row of anything since then. He was in the Oblivion boys.

Sparklingbrook · 08/07/2012 14:06

You can sleep now Fuddle. Grin Sounds like a dubious fab stage show. Shock

Fuddlemuddler · 08/07/2012 14:07

I don't watch tv anymore and have never watched London's Burning. But I was part of his act as a shy teenager being a shagged sheep. Blush Blush Blush I thought he was georgous when I watched the Harry Enfield clip but clearly was also having flashbacks to a long repressed trauma.
