seriously - Hilary someone has just been on ITT talking about costumes - is she a drag queen?

I just dont know? please help

Hilary Alexander. And no, I don't believe she is in the slightest.

ooops must just be me then......

She's just a bit eclectic in a typical fashion designer sense.

I think she's excellent.

A bit dotty, yes, but she knows her stuff.

I hope she becomes a permanent fixture on the fashion panel.

As long as she loses the green hair.

No, the green hair must stay!

I like an eccentric

Hmm. Just as you don't expect me to get them then.

No, I want you wearing as little as possible

Good God, Sid, you don't want to see that. Noone wants - or deserves - to see that!

It's a risk I'm willing to take

Better say something on-topic before we get told off!

Erm...

I quite like Hilary (hideous hair notwithstanding), but I don't understand what's happened to the mid-week report that the dress forcast has replaced...

I'm sure Claudia said that's coming up tomorrow......

Yes, for this series of ITT, the midweek report is now "just after midweek report" (i.e Thursday).

Well that makes no sense at all.

You were brave posting in the middle of that blatant flirting!

lol, I've spent the past few years trying to convince my mum that she isn't but I still don't think she believes me...

She seems to know her stuff very well, and is a great part of the panel, especially on previous Friday Panels .

She used to be on a daytime programme years ago when they made people over in a studio - can't remember the name but she used to choose a rack of clothes for them to try on. Always felt she was quite good at dressing the more endowed woman.

I used to watch that woo! I think it was called Style Challenge.

It was on when I was a student (that's my excuse for indulging in some naff daytime telly!).

It was hosted by the sexy John Leslie if I remember correctly

My Dad absolutley adored Hilary he thought she was hilariously fantastic and my mum said she could never get a word out of him when she was on telly.

Hi Sid - yes I seem to remember he was on it, presumably before This Morning. If it was when you were a student guess it was only a few years ago then . Keep thinking Oz Clarke was on it as well, but he does wine doesn't he, so confused where that memory came from - although think I was on maternity leave when I watched so my brain was (and remains) vague in the extreme!

John Leslie - not sure - I think Blue Peter presenters attract an automatic icky rating for me - get down shep!

Hey, I loved Style Challenge too, it was hilarious!

Don`t remember JL on Style Challenge but do remember Oz Clarke presenting it

Your brain wasn`t that addled - he did present SC

Wasn't there some big mirror/catwalk reveal moment - must have been before daytime TV was all house buying and Jeremy Kyle - halcyon days!


Weird - how did he get there from the Food and Drink programme!?! Weird how I can remember those trivial bits and not important stuff like umm, my pin!
