Hassled · 16/06/2011 18:50

I love you. I really, truly, love you. Am speechless.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you.

(My first born child isn't up to much, tbh. Still a bit spotty and awkward)

MsTeak · 16/06/2011 18:59

Aw shucks Blush. Least I could do for a West Wing fan .

Oh my god - MsTeak - way to make up for the fact The Good Wife has finished and there's nowt on telly tonight!

Hassled · 16/06/2011 21:10

I am so obsessed these days. I must move on. I still have my Mad Men box set unopened.

Anyway - I've really enjoyed the quiz clips and have stumbled across a where they say where they think there characters will be. But Josh isn't looking so good - be warned.

Hassled · 16/06/2011 21:10

Isn't Bradley Whitford a serious actor? which means he must be channelling 70's porn star with moustache for a role. He was married to the mum in Malcolm in the Middle.

Bumperlicioso · 16/06/2011 22:32

He was in that British drama on oil last year.

TinyPawz · 16/06/2011 23:44

Bradley is in another show now with Colin Hank (Tom's Son), I can't remember the name

TinyPawz · 16/06/2011 23:48

The Good Guys. It is complete and utter crap

fiderer · 17/06/2011 01:48

MsTeak Grin Thank you! Loved that.
West Wing and David Tennant

I'll give you my first-born child for your belief that WW fans should rule the world.

Bumperlicioso: I thought "welch" too. Don't know why though as I don't recall ever seeing it written down.

Anteater · 17/06/2011 01:50

This is without doubt the best tv show EVER made
what a thread
I am with you!!

fiderer · 17/06/2011 01:58

NormanTebbit - agree about the brother. That he couldn't save or do anything to help his brother and then there were astronauts he could.

Kate Harper has just appeared - so I declare (not for the first time): Worst Fringe Ever.

fiderer · 17/06/2011 03:41

Jason Isaacs
Love the look on Josh's face when he appears.

Grandhighpoohba · 17/06/2011 07:33

Josh certainly has lost the boyish good looks! Shock

CaveMum · 17/06/2011 08:32

Lost you all there for a while!

Anyway, I think the "Leo heart attack/firing" storyline was put together in a hurry because the actor was pretty ill at the time. He looked very pale/drawn for quite a while and I don't think it was all make-up.

I think Zoe gave Kate a run for her money in the bad hair stakes at some points though - there was one truly awful haircut at one stage - she looked like someone from 1980s Eastern Europe who'd seen a picture of Christy Turlington and said 'make me look like this' to her hairdresser!

explanation of the awful moustache.

CJ looks awesomely hot in that reunion video!

changeforthebetter · 17/06/2011 10:59

MsTeak wonderful clip, thanks Smile but why does Josh have a dwarf hamster on his top lip?? Grin The President has turned into a bit of a silver fox hasn't he. Charlie and Zoe don't look a day older. Not sure about CJ's jacket Confused

changeforthebetter · 17/06/2011 11:01

Sorry Blush credit to Hassled for the reunion interview

fiderer · 17/06/2011 14:32

Aside from my lust admiration for Jason Isaacs (great accent also, fawn fawn), I am going no way near any clip of Josh looking any less hot than when he was playing basketball at Camp David in S6/peace talks with Israel.

Moustache? Ouch. No thanks.

changeforthebetter · 17/06/2011 16:02

NI accents do sound rather hot on certain blokes (not yer Ian Paisley types natch Grin).

I am not lustful about DT either but I did love him for a) his cute accent and b) his geeky love all that is WW Grin

CaveMum · 17/06/2011 16:52

Thanks to Google I can confirm that the phrase is "To welch on a bet". It is, however, believed that it was a racist slur against the Welsh who were considered tight fisted. It seems to date back to about the 1850s.

[pulls glasses down to end of nose and nods sagely]

I will have a look at those links tonight. I am 100% with fiderer - West Wing AND David Tennant = heaven
