You guys need to stop filling the thread when nothing is happening!!

In the meantime I had the most amazing nights sleep last night. Absolutely full of food and had an amazing day and frankly this morning I couldn't care if he's there for 6 months Grin

ClawedButler · 02/08/2021 13:12

Ohhhh, Laurence Fox for the Man's Field Park CF is so perfect.

Where IS the actual silly bastard (sorry, can only hear Seen Been saying it as BAStud now) and why does he not need his car??

God I love this thread

Could FC tow it out of the way of your drive and far into the forest somewhere out of the way for the CF to have to go and look for it?

FreezerBird · 02/08/2021 13:14

DB is an absolute annoying jerk 99% of the time and our relationship is very based on needling each other sometimes over the line of acceptability but the odd occasion he does something and I realise he's not that bad. He goes home today and I might miss him a tiny bit.

There's nothing like a common enemy to unite bickering siblings.

Also, there was at least one request on my local FB groups last night for places serving roast dinner. Coincidence? I think not.

CouldIhaveaword · 02/08/2021 13:15

Alan Cumming for DB.

I'd have Gerard Butler for CPF. Don't know why, but I really dislike the man.

Could Orlando Bloom voice the bears?

WiddlinDiddlin · 02/08/2021 13:15

Simon Farnaby does do a good job of playing an insufferable arrogant prick though...

Kevin from Motherland also - I can see him being all 'ooh i was brave and did a thing I was told not to do' and then wimping out and just giving up his car FOREVER as he dare not knock on, apologise and ask for his car back.

ThumbWitchesAbroad · 02/08/2021 13:15

I wonder if he thinks that, at some point, you're bound to leave the gate open and he can just retrieve his car then? Little does he know, if that's what he's thinking!

I also wonder if he has dashcams in his car, that he can remote access, so he can SEE if the gate is open and know when it would be possible to retrieve it.

@MotherofTerriers

Rowan Atkinson as the CF parker?
He used to stay in a local hotel with his children when they were young and apparently he was just adorable and very nice
PizzaPiePizzaPie · 02/08/2021 13:16

Laurence Fox is perfection but so is Corden. What a dilemma.

I think we need some more supporting roles. Local police, council workers, chef at at the carvery.

CF real or pretend sister….

RocketPanda · 02/08/2021 13:16

Can I nominate the fabulous Maxine Peake for the role of the OP? I know she's a tad older but by golly she brilliant.

WildWestWanda · 02/08/2021 13:18

Don’t mind me, just place marking Smile

notsogreenthumb · 02/08/2021 13:20

Is this actually still happening Shock

penguinwithasuitcase · 02/08/2021 13:22

@Cap89

Another vote for Lawrence Fox as CF. I don’t know why, I reckon it’s the draping across the car and the quirky revenge ideas, but I can’t get this image of Jeff Goldblum out of my head for DB.
YES! 1000 times yes.
Mummylovesmonkeys · 02/08/2021 13:22

Love the idea of Laurence Fox as CF, but unfortunately......

Am so enjoying this thread. Am keeping skiving off from painting walls of conservatory to check on progress! Huge respect to OP for her cool, calm and kickass attitude!
As OP has said she is not inconvenienced by CF’s vehicle, my vote goes to leaving it where it is. CF is then in a no-win situation because he either has to come and ask OP to release the vehicle (and I hope she makes him grovel) or he gets it bumped out of the way (hopefully, none too gently) by an emergency vehicle.
Can see Olivia Coleman making a great job of playing the OP
For CF what about Piers Morgan or Jeremy Clarkson;- after all, there wouldn’t be much acting involved!

I also wonder if he has dashcams in his car, that he can remote access, so he can SEE if the gate is open and know when it would be possible to retrieve it.

I think this runs off the car's battery? In the winter my car battery goes dead if I haven't started it in a few weeks. Not sure how long it would last without starting in the summer months though.

I've just had a mental image of CF remote logging into his dash cam to be greeted with a rear view of DB draping himself across the windscreen, complete with modesty protecting Yorkshire's.
