Definitely. And ticket queues.
If I think he was at a theatre right next to my office, and I didn't know of his existence!

orphan · 14/01/2015 22:21

OK spo it's really time for you to join us fully again. No more mysterious, undercover stuff - we want you back!

Richtea19 · 14/01/2015 22:22

Love SPO's new FF! Skinny legs!

Maybe we should offer to be BAs new agent! We would make sure we find suitable parts that would show off all his attributes ;)

pixieg1rl · 14/01/2015 22:25

I think any theatre attendance will have to be highly organised. Imagine if the twitter lot and FB anon and us all went on the same night. It would be carnage. Someone better alert ACAS....

orphan · 14/01/2015 22:26

Our new enterprise - agents to the stars. On our books: BA, Richard Armitage, Rupert Friend, The Raisin... You see where I'm going with this...

orphan · 14/01/2015 22:30

pixie might have to take the flicky rigid tape measures if the other lot are going to be there.

Oneforthegirls · 14/01/2015 22:30

Persuading Charles has just updated. Off to bed for me

Nickel45 · 14/01/2015 22:31

I like where your heading with that orphan ... :)

Richtea19 · 14/01/2015 22:31

Given all our different locations, we can be countrywide, that's a selling point for any agency I'm sure.

Rhubarb01 · 14/01/2015 22:31

Just imagine tickets would be auctioned on e-bay or would be changing hands at double or triple the face value and be sold near the theatre by some dodgy tout wearing a long coat with a fluffy fur collar who once a sale had been agreed would flash open the coat to potential purchasers. Where upon his gorilla like assistant hanging on for dear life under the coat would whip out the ticket and snatch the money!!

Nickel45 · 14/01/2015 22:31

(By the way we are top of the most active threads .... Ha ha ha!)

smallandtriangular · 14/01/2015 22:33

Noooo Nickel I'd only just erased that picture from my tiny mind and now it's back like some awful ear worm.... and i skimmed again and thought that onefor was referring to SPO being bigger and better not BA, and I couldn't understand why SPO would be at a theatre...

More wine I think

WHAJEB1 · 14/01/2015 22:36

I think you should actually publish a book with all these posts - you could call it Mumsnetters Do BA or something? Proceeds to charity!!!!

Nickel45 · 14/01/2015 22:37

I know small, I'm sorry!
Here's some better ones.

(Although looking at the middle one compared to the reign ones .... do we think he shaved his chest?)

Hi Newbie25. It's great that we are getting more ladies appearing! It's been such a week for confessions and new contributors.

I agree entirely about the writing (we of course on here are the nuts). In my job, I have always had to have a high standard of English and it makes me cringe to see some of the stuff going out generally on the internet. Facebook can be awful. I feel sometimes I am being over-critical when I read the bad ff so tend to keep my thoughts to myself but I've just read one now and instead of "hungry", it comes up as "Hungary". Predictive text probably but people should really know how to string a sentence together before publishing any of their work. Like icemist says, I just don't post a review for the bad stuff.

Best get off my high horse but it really is a personal bugbear of mine so it's good to know I am not alone!

Hardly been able to keep up with all the different subjects today. The photos of BA in Reign are the stuff of nightmares.

Just watching my favourite restaurant scene then off to bed. Only 5 weeks till my Bailbrook House trip to need to commit every single detail of that restaurant to memory so that I can write a comparison report for you all on my return!

smallandtriangular · 14/01/2015 22:42

I'm sure that in the hospital scene he must have insisted that there were no nipple shots 'cos that sheet is quite well hitched ... perhaps he always knew....

Richtea19 · 14/01/2015 22:42

Gotta hit my pit, but I have to erase all fur and feather coats from memory, or knowing my bloody luck the night I have a dream of CJ he's wearing animal skin not combats!

Keep that picture firmly in your head richtea (its one of my favourites) and read a bit of M rated ff, that should help!!

Yet again, I've done nothing that I'm supposed to this evening! I am so far behind on my tv watching, and as for reading a book .. Ha! I even got that I am Pilgrim book from the library, that someone recommended, but it's still sat beside my bed! But I'm having way too much fun on here!!

icemistOBE · 14/01/2015 22:54

Grr it's Wrapped not Rapped! That ff is getting on my nerves now. The bad spelling just makes it unreadable. Am I mean if I say please use spellcheck?

whajeb just read your latest and of course it's brilliant. I'm really enjoying your spin on both OG and Persuasion. I can enjoy the misunderstandings and angst because i know (I hope) that all's well in the end!

cherin · 14/01/2015 22:59

Honestly, I think at this point WE should organise a MN OG cabaret show, travelling the uk to display our skills and encyclopaedic knowledge of all things Og. The show would include of course gorilla-fur-climbing, naked wrestling, measuring tapes of various types (soft for whipping, rigid for sword fighting with furry cape), sketching and writing, lips-ironing, limericks, rhymes etc etc
I think the full OG cast would fight for the premiere tickets, and we would need to vote for who seats in the front row.
(Drinking hot beverages would be clearly forbidden during the show)

orphan · 14/01/2015 23:00

nickel who was the lucky person who got to shave his chest?! Maybe outin has insider knowledge on whether he's naturally hairless.

Nickel45 · 14/01/2015 23:00

Please do icemist, it's not mean, unless you write it really meanly, and spelt wrong "plebes yous spel chek"

I've not caught up yet, there are loads of new ones tonight!

pixieg1rl · 14/01/2015 23:03

I think you have to use Nickel's spelling for all comments icemist

orphan · 14/01/2015 23:04

cherin not to mention in the interval we'd have on sale all our OG products - the ironing board cover, doll, subscription to the annual etc.
