And her nickname was Grimbo which she seemed to think meant Granny Bimbo whereas I’d place the emphasis on the “Grim” part. The other ageing bottle-blonde beside her was also bringing further disrepute to the Mutton-dressed-as-lamb brigade. I wish they’d dress their age or their IQ, whichever is higher....
Maybe Wrighty’s show is on a lot of pensioners bucket lists and he rotates them in the audience as they die off?
But what is dressing our age..what should a mid sixties bottle blonde like me wear? (I ain't Grimbo by the way...I'm a lot less wrinkly) I don't wear minis and I don't flash the slighty crepey cleavage ( well not too much).Just in case I apply to trudge down to the metropilis to appear on the show, can you direct me to a nice burkha emporium.:D;)

Long answer short - If you start taking fashion tips from your granddaughter, then you know you’ve crossed a line.

I'd say the 'bottle blonde' bit depends on what type of blonde? I used to work with a woman who then was in her early 50's and was peroxide blonde. Without putting too finer point on it not only did it put a good ten years on her, it also made her look like a rough trollop....which I hasten to add she wasn't.....but the peroxide blonde gave her that appearance.
Some women in your age group undoubtedly still have good figures and possibly very nice legs, but would look a bit silly in mini skirts. On the knee with a pair of quality sheer tights/stockings plus good heels looks very classy....IMO. Yes i'm a bloke who openly admits to looking at women who dress like women.....in skirts rather than jeans and trainers.....and if that makes me sound like a male chauvinist pig then so be it!
As for the cleavage bit.......if you have it, flaunt it. Within reason of course! Why not? If a woman has a nice boobs and cleavage I would much rather they are proud of that than trying to hide it. I've never quite figured out what goes on in some womens heads who seem to hate their boobs so much they squash them down or cover them in big baggy jumpers.
If you mean can she string a coherent sentence together unlike most of the other bubbleheads they invite for one day ? then yes.
No, I meant at the start of the show she was un-necessarily loud and talking very fast. And how often did she say Anne was in her sixties when in fact she is 58?

Oh I see, I rarely watch it from the off, I only really watch the Paper Reviews bit.
Wrighty getting attacked from the 3 panellists regarding the item about Pedestrians getting run down.
He can't help himself being argumentative, unless he takes the opposing view deliberately to illicit a debate.

Toe curling :eek: Every time AR said AD was in her 60s - and she said it many times - I cringed and was waiting for AD to correct her. Thing is, they were both around on TV in the 80s and AR would have known she was 10 years older than AD then so why age her now? Miaow methinks

You can wear anything you like, but try to keep your legs shut:cool:
Nothing worst than seeing a grannies kebab in the morning:eek:
Heh. Wrighty was far too polite to the Welsh caller on the GCSE TP, he was making no sense whatsoever and took an age to get the words out. First caller knew her stuff.
Not my favourite person on tv, but that girl from BB looks well!
Admire how much weight she has lost but do thing she is looking like she has gone a bit too far. Her cheeks are a bit sunken and her mouth looks a bit too big for her face.
Good show, Josie is always fun and down to earth. Sugar TP was the highlight - bit harsh that one of the callers had a go at Josie for doing a Yasmin (shaking her head during the call). Hitler TP fell flat because Jews aren't a race.

Was listening to the show rather than watching, but the first time I saw her I thought she looked well, then I noticed in another shot she looked a bit gaunt...Hope she maintains the weight loss and not do a yo-yo thing as many 'celeb' dieters do.

I found the sugar thing very interesting, I'm trying to cut out sugar too and didn't realise just how much of the stuff is around us, Marsha the caller was a bit stern wasn't she?

Comparing sugar as addictive as heroin was totally OTT. Heroin has killed countless people, some within very short periods of time too. I don't know of any one single case where someone has overdosed on sugar to the point of killing themselves with sugar being the sole contributory cause.
Actually I thought the lady callers comments (who caused the head shaking you mention), put her points of view forward excellently and coherently. MW didn't seem so keen as he usually is to disagree either.
The Hitler topic, everyone knew what subject it related to though I didn't catch whether the teacher concerned was of Jewish faith or not? However, had this occurred in Germany, Belgium, Austria or Netherlands.......it would have been treated in a very different manner altogether.

No-one was saying that sugar was as debilitating as heroin, they were saying it's as addictive as heroin. Two different things.

Well I do wear leggings (really warm ones) but not Moshi-Monster tops....:D and you'll be pleased to hear my tops are nice and long....
To tell truth once you've seen one kebab you've seen 'em all...:eek:
Oh, please, Ed, I'm having my dinner!
I think he does that to a certain extent - playing 'Devil's Advocate' and all that, but you're right, he sometimes can't help being argumentative.
I think Angela was getting a little impatient with him.

And which tatty Five programmes will Kevin be undeservedly praising I wonder?
It's becoming unbearable. A constant stream of Home & Away and Big Brother bores. I'm seriously close to giving up on the show altogether.

And when MW said to her, "You haven't stopped smiling since you got here." Well, that summed it up.
