Thanks nauticant but how do you know that I am not, in fact, a SW undercover?

If Charlie was attempting to flirt with Ed, he needs to sort himself out and stop going after unavailable people.

Peggy looks exactly like the Queen Mother. In my mind, Always dressed in pastel, wearing pearls and a total Matriach.

Ref. Little White Bull, it was my little brothers' favourite song, and film, good old Tommy Steele Grin

True. Although I think it is more comparable to him just about to sign the credit card receipt.

Some things you just can't compromise on and in those cases dh and I tend to stick with the status quo. Which is what David is doing!

I agree that Peggy is the classic queen mum type. It's just that I considered her as the Giles granny attacking Rob with her umbrella and the picture was so absurd I couldn't resist sharing.

My brother has every single Giles annual.

That's the one R4

GypsyFloss · 27/02/2015 17:58

I didn't hear any flirting between Ed and Charlie! What I heard was Charlie the cat toying with Ed the mouse and Ed being a bit thick is going to be left with only his tail and guts on the carpet.

I'm sorry to say that on those threads that pop up here every so often about which slebs are actually loathsome in real life, TS is a constant fixture. Sad

Gypsy, once again I agree with you re the so called flirting. Poor Ed. Lovely idea, though, that he might end up managing the megadairy - if only he could swallow his ideological objections to that type of farming.

BoreOfWhabylon · 27/02/2015 18:26

TS, Mimsy?

LammilyDoll · 27/02/2015 18:46

TS = Tommy Steele, I guess

BoreOfWhabylon · 27/02/2015 18:48

Ah! Thanks Lamilly.

Peggy to me is a combination of Margaret Thatcher and Mary Whitehouse in a June Whitfield package.

It's all good with me squeaver.

Piggoi is short but not birdlike. She might have been described as pleasingly plump in youth and middle age but now has the form of a compact but well-lagged hot water tank. She is always dressed extremely well in Windsmoor and the like and favours Investment Classic colours and styles. Lots of camel coloured cashmere, for example, and lots of winning ways with lovely silk scarves of which she has a profusion.

She has quite a lot of proper jewellery (dear Jick was always veddy, veddy generous) which she wears in rotation. Her hair is a champagne-tinted Thatcherite helmet, and she sets great store by her colourist. She's never seen without makeup; a pinkish lipstick and lots of powder, which make her look a bit like a square of rose Turkish delight. She wears L'Air du Temps but underneath the powder and scent there is a faint but discernible base note of sulphur and corruption.

Comparing our mental pictures of characters is far superior to accidentally stumbling across their photos on the Internet. (I try to avoid this but annoyingly it will happen from time to time.)

Bea · 27/02/2015 19:04

Bea · 27/02/2015 19:08

Usha! Please talk some sense into her!

nauticant · 27/02/2015 19:09

When will it be revealed that Tom and Charlie are actually twins separated at birth and somehow both descended from Dan Archer?

WhatWouldFreddieDo · 27/02/2015 19:09

Halsall · 27/02/2015 19:10
