Sarah Beeny in the Guardian....

[DrDaddy]

here
"She's foxy, on television and in the flesh, fun and funny. Some of her male fan base also imagine her to be bossy - in a good way."

Phoarrrr....

It's a bit disappointing to see non-entities such as Beeny and a couple of others have so much coverage when darling M. - intelligent, beautiful, well-read, elegant to a fault,(loves her mum), stylish and sooo sexy be relagated to bit parts.
I like to think she does what work she likes, which for a woman of such poise and taste doesn't involve the "wannabericher" types and have a film crew wandering round after her incessantly.

I copy mariellas hair!!

wish i could copy her voice

Wow! Very fine hair indeed!

I used to have colleague who spoke alot like M., so I'd phone her up from time to time, and ask her utterly inane questions so for the pleasure.

did meet said colleague one day.

Should have stuck to the phone stuff.

lol!

I was so glad I bought the Guardian today.

She swears in that interview too. Talk dirty to me, Sarah...

If there is ONE thing I'd change about the lovely Beeny, though, it's......

the way she says...

THAASAND PAANDS.

Well, I think she is over-charging.

UQD - the longer you spend in the North, the more absurd such accents sound!!

she sounds really nice in that article
so glad to hear her dreadful hair has been sorted out
still can't understand though, why when i've heard her bemoan her large chest, she dresses to accentuate it (and not always in a flattering way)

wonder if she comes on here...

Last time she was in the grauniad was for that questionnaire in the Weekend bit - the one where they always ask "Have you ever had a same-sex experience?" Sarah's answer was "no, to my husband's disappintment."

Mr Beeny is a man on my wavelength!

Indeed!
To be honest, I'm surprised they got away with askng that question for so long. Did they ask their gay interviewees "have you ever had a different-sex experience?"

She's one of those people who's going to be 35 forever.

Eh? She was born in 1972, so she really is 35.

Dp alleges I have identical figure to SB (silently pleased after seeing her on telly last night)
I suspect Botox on her face though, or is she the only person whose undereye bags and lines disappear after having a couple of kids

Yes, UD, she was 35 last year, too.

Sadie Frost was also born in several different years.

yeah yeah

Catherine zeta and patsy kensit

Well, every source I can find gives 9/1/72 as her birthdate.

Caprice Bouret.

Geri Halliwell.

Unless I've seen a birth certificate in print, I take it with a grain of salt.

Every source says Rachel Weisz is 36, but an MNer went to school with her and is 40.

Hermione norris

Really Expat !!

wish i dared lie

Yes, really!

I went to school with Stuart Miles from Blue Peter and he claims to be two years younger than me! You can only get away with "showbiz age-planing" once though.
