Thoughts?

She looks radiant but I'm not a huge fan of the fishtail shape, plus it makes her look slightier bulkier than she is. They do make a good couple though.

Also, I have to say it . . . . . . . I love Claudia Winkelman, but why does she always wear weird coloured makeup?? I just want to wash her orange face.

nobody's saying she herself looked anything other than lovely, though. but the layering of the dress is definitely unflattering, it just adds so much bulk. (or does it?)

[herbaceous]

I'm somehow faintly disappointed that David Mitchell chose her. She's always had a slight air of 'thinking she's good', as a friend of mine would say.

Quite what David Mitchell's choice of bride has got to do with me, I don't know.

[noddyholder]

Whats wrong with thinking you are good?

[AitchTwoOhOneTwo]

she is good, though. she'd better be, with those parents and all the advantages they brought her. she's a depressingly refreshing change from all those 'i'm pretty, but don't worry, I'm not bright enough to threaten the boys' giggling female tv presenters, imo.

[Rindercella]

Aitch you really are hoping that she is pregnant, aren't you?!

Hope all is well with you btw

[FunnysInLaJardin]

I think she's great. She just seems so much more real than most female slebs. She doesn't apologise for herself.

[MardyBra]

Now I've been nice to them on this thread, do you think they'll adopt me as their new friend and invite me round for regular "kitchen suppers" and witty banter.

[Pinot]

I had a bow too.

Lawks.

[AitchTwoOhOneTwo]

i really am, rinders, it's the only reasonable explanation for all that tulle. all well here, will be even better once i get the cast off my leg...

[MrsCampbellBlack]

Dexter you are so pretty and the dress is a classic of its time.

[dexter73]

I offered to keep it for my dd a couple of years ago but she looked at me like this so it went to the charity shop!

[dexter73]

Thank you MrsCB - I was 22 then so not quite so pretty now (39)!!

[ToffeeCaramel]

She looks nice but David Mitchell might have made more of an effort. He clearly got out of bed 5 minutes before the wedding was due to start!

[Pancakeflipper]

I reckon Victoria fancies the pants off him with that stubbly growth. I think she stipulated that for the wedding.

[tribpot]

Has anyone posted a link to the lovely pic she posted on Twitter yesterday?

He looks better with a scruffy beard (less like a 10 year old! Which is always nice when you're getting married ... )

The dress was definitely a bit more structured than I would have chosen (you know, if I was Victoria Coren and not me) but they both look fab.

Does that dreadful woman never do anything different with her hair? The dress is awful

[diddl]

"nobody's saying she herself looked anything other than lovely, though."

I suppose I mean that she looks so lovely & happy that I don´t really notice that the dress perhaps isn´t that great.

[Pancakeflipper]

Oh Tribpot - don't they look happy. Got similar noses.

[noddyholder]

They look great in that link.

[JuliaFlyte]

Ah Tribpot that photo is gorgeous, it nearly made me cry

[Eliza22]

This couple are MADE for each other. They look wonderful. Two very clever people and she looked beautiful.

[theoriginalandbestrookie]

You know I didn't notice the dress when I saw the pictures, I remember thinking that her hair looked a bit messy for a wedding, but the two of them are just shining they are obviously so in love ( sorry to be a soppy git but it is true)

Now that you mention it, the dress isn't great, makes her look bigger than she is, but hey I bet he isn't complaining.

[AitchTwoOhOneTwo]

NOT that i am stalking her or anything but if you continue down the photos on her twitter there's one where she says 'the beer's his', referring to a beer on a table. (mind you, i wasn't paying attention to the dates so god knows it could have been from yonks ago).

[squoosh]

I like his beard. Without it he can look a tad like a scout leader circa 1927.

[dexter73]

'the beer's his' pic was taken 560 days ago!
