Rageh Omah? Was Trevor Philips a journalist before he got into politics?

TinselTamum · 20/12/2004 20:42

Darcus Howe?

Property developer- surely not....The Donald???

muminlondon · 20/12/2004 20:49

"an assortment of powerful and largely male admirers, such as broadcaster John Humphrys, who is a good platonic friend and was a guest at her wedding"

from old evening standard article

Who said Gordon Brown...
Oh my lord I do so hope is not another Labour front bencher or minister!!!
Full house anyone?
Snort

muminlondon · 20/12/2004 20:50

Stuart Hall? (not the one from it's a knockout)

Piffleoffagus · 20/12/2004 20:50

Famous black journo would have to be Philips surely?
Bout as left as you get

TinselTamum · 20/12/2004 20:57

at the thought of the It's a Knockout Stuart Hall . Whatever next?

muminlondon · 20/12/2004 20:57

he defends private education for black children (like Diane Abbott) - not as leftwing but just as aspirational as bimberley, perhaps?

muminlondon · 20/12/2004 20:58

Trevor Philips not Stuart Hall that is!

Piffleoffagus · 20/12/2004 21:02

are there any left wingers in cabinet left with kids in state schools?
It's not considered left wing anymore is... state ed...
I moved house 200 miles to get my son into a grammar school...
And I think I am pretty left of left ... FWIW

Piffleoffagus · 20/12/2004 21:06

celebrated broadcaster
surely
Not Terry Wogan?
Off to choke back serious guffaws

Tinker · 20/12/2004 21:37

Stuart Hall would be so good

Caligulights · 20/12/2004 22:09

Who is Stuart Hall???

I thought Wogan too. Please, no, she surely hasn't invaded the TOG club?

And she's 43! I feel I should make more of an effort. Rush out, get my hair done, stop eating for a week, and then smile broadly at every powerful ole man I see. As long as I stick to those with bus passes, I should do OK.

Tinker · 20/12/2004 22:11

It's a Knockout/Football commentator. White cuffs and collar on coloured shirt, gold chain over the top. In fact, Ron Atkinson would be a good one as well.

TinselTamum · 20/12/2004 22:13

This is the one muminlondon really meant, here , and this is the one we're sniggering about

SantaGoesToTheGym · 20/12/2004 22:42

Terry Wogan has too much self respect to be seen sniffing around trailer park trash

Caligulights · 20/12/2004 23:05

I so hope you're right. It couldn't be Doctor Wally, could it??? !!!

aloha · 20/12/2004 23:09

Why would Humphreys not surprise me?

Caligulights · 20/12/2004 23:11

PLEASE don't say that, that thought has somehow got into my consciousness as well. Something to do with the fact that he became a father again at 57. Can you imagine the Today programme if that turns out to be the case?

SantaGoesToTheGym · 20/12/2004 23:12

Aloha

Hush your rattle.........NOooooooooooooooo not JH

aloha · 20/12/2004 23:12

Radio 4 would never be the same. Hoggart can't come back to the News Quiz, can he?

SantaGoesToTheGym · 20/12/2004 23:14

She is a TART

to quote Ma Boswell

Caligulights · 20/12/2004 23:51

He might come back. After all, Angus Deayton (? is that how you spell it?) came back after the first affair revelation that he refused to comment on - and I suspect he'll be back in about a year, it looks like a deliberate strategy by the Beeb of employing only temporary hosts for HIGNFY, so that no-one gets their feet under the table.

I LOVED SH before I had to imagine him having sex...

victoriapeckham · 21/12/2004 09:41

These are the five men who are apparently being discussed as possible 4th man (but then today it says there is 5th too, so who knows if it's more than one of them.)
Jeremy Paxman
John Humphreys
Max Hastings
Alan Rushbridger
Some journalist at Telegraph whose second name is Alexander but source can t remember his first name.

Piffleoffagus · 21/12/2004 09:57

NO NOT Jezza...
NO NO NO
Who do I kill first her or him
GRRRRR
