I'm hoping 'Newtion' is a typo.

Victoria coren, i think

Haha, Sophie Coren.
Er, I wasn't talking to my DD at all at the time of posting....

Longtime lurker on these threads but just had to say that 50 Shades of Mumsnet was much better than the original

I like how tonight's thread is derailed already.

The book sold by the bucket load, so guessing the film will do well, which is sad really.

I remember that thread , I was on it loads at the beginning, I hadn't even read the bloody book

I cannot imagine anything worse that going to the cinema to watch a mucky film. On Valentine's day. With a load of other people, all of whom in my mind are Freda and Barry - beating one another on the bottom with a Woman's Weekly and mashing an avocado into Freda's lower portions.
Just no.

That is exactly how I would imagine the Valentine's day 50 shades of beige and avocado audience to be composed.

There was a thread earlier this week where someone described 50 shades as 'the Asda of sex', which may be doing a disservice to Asda.

Wouldn't you just be giving the side eye to everyone else as you filed out, picturing them rushing home to do the spanky nasty?
I would. Horrible.

They'll probably be wheeling out large tubs of pampas grass to situate outside the screen doors. Because what could be nortier than taking Brenda's husband home for the avocado and women's weekly treatment, while her husband goes home with Rosemary?

Yes, how did we get from Brother beyond to steps, then fifty shades of shite? Poor asda, although it was tesco that had a fifty shades section in my local big tesco.

YY, it's the NORTY SHRIEK NORTY that makes me die a bit inside. It's all too hen-party, fnar-fnar, cheapo Ann Summerz.
We're going to get lots of 'couple who both look like Maris Pipers caught making the sexings in cinema' stories over the next month, aren't we?

50! Hes 50!
God I'm ancient

I always mixed up Nathan from Brother Beyond with Nick Kaman.

him of the launderette?

Nick Kamen in his undies

He had a failed pop career, too. nothing to do with the fact he was shagging madge, oh no

'Each time, you break my heart.....' (which Madge wrote, iirc)

lalalalalalalalalala.

Him indeed of launderette fame. They had a similar look.

Nick Kamen was lush.

Had to google nick kaman. I remember him now - another essex man and did a song with Madonna according to wiki. The levi ad , how could i forget him? Memory is going. Getting old.

I loved that song - i really am a sad 80s throwback.

'A little voice inside me cries...'

I might have bought the single

I love a good, de-railed thread.

I fear the programme will be quite a disappointment, now as usual

I bought the limited edition of the single because it had loads of photos in it. Not sure if I ever listened to it

I bought the single im sure - i did like Madge in her toy boy years. I should throw an 80s party - the memories.. ( getting maudlin)
