To have gone right off Idris Elba

After hearing him in the Sky ad extolling the virtues of HAITCH DEE.

I winced. I can never look at him in quite the same way again. Oh Idris, we could have been so good together. And you've ruined it.

Aibu?

I know! He's good like that.

Have you tasted those dear little lemon madeline cakes he makes?

SalemSaberhagen · 01/05/2017 22:54

I take it you've never heard him rap as 'King Dris'?

Don't YouTube it, don't. It will kill the love!

Delicious! And he makes a fabulous roast. And the kitchen is always gleaming! And he even irons my underwear on the right setting! All topless. It's wonderful isn't it? Grin

I overlook his taste in music - I can't talk, I've got various Burt Bacharach tracks on repeat. That's what headphones are for

'Not the point but as some people mentioned upthread, I don't know a single woman who can tell the difference between an HD telly and a non HD telly. Its always men who say how awesome it is. I honestly think it's worth some university funding.'

I can, I'm definitely a woman, I've given birth several times. To be fair though you aren't missing anything, it just shows up what terrible skin a lot of famous people have. But not Idris, of course, he still looks awesome.

My mates and I had a running joke years ago about Keanu Reeves. It involved us watching his films and whispering, "shhh Keanu" seductively every time he spoke. Shhh Idris.

If anything will put you off Idris it's watching him croon about exploring your Secret Garden. In a denim waistcoat.

God, yes HD Telly has a horrible bent for zooming in on enlarged pores, spots and wrinkles. No thank you very much, I'll stick to soft focus old stylee.

I don't mind the Haitch

I have never really liked him though. Massive ego. Gorgeous, but massive ego.
