I had the misfortune to watch Mr and Mrs with these two on (at my mothers' I protest) and when one of the answers was that James went to the bathroom when Ola was in there - including doing a number 2; I went right off him at that point and her for tolerating it.

Yuk!

Isn't it copying a series of adverts used in the USA in the normal media, not soft porn magazines.

But you can probably see more of her arse, without water distorting the view, in many of the costumes provided by programme for her dances.

He has always struck me as a control freak.
That anecdote underlines it for me.

Yuk!

Is her arse the only commodity they have?

Yes but James isn't there drawing attention to it and asking us to pay for the pleasure of looking at it (mind you I don't follow him on Twitter).

Regardless of USA adverts, you and I both know what it depicts

It's not about how much you see is it, it's the pose and its purpose.

I'm not keen on your stance, it seeks to distort the plainly seen truth

Well I don't know about you but I think there is a big difference between dancing and posing provocatively.......so there.

It's a very odd husband who seeks to show sexually explicit photos of his wife to the country in exchange for cash.
IMO

Well quite.

Well, James did try to market his own calendar, but it seems that there wasn't much demand for pictures of him playing golf in no more than a jaunty cap and a cheeky smile.

Is their dancing not good enough to make a living from?

They are not getting younger and maybe he fancies a zeleb life for himself. Doing F all all day and making money off it.

Hubby's Xmas prezzie sorted!

Really?

It reminds me more of the famous Women's Institute calendar.

Not really anything to get incredibly excited about.

And not really anything to get horrified by if you are a female yourself.

Who says they are horrified? Nobody. You've made yourself look silly right there, by revealing your intent to lie.
Do please explain how it's like the calendar girls photo shoot, that's the most ridiculous comment on this thread, and that's quite an accolade.

I think you need look no further than your post I quoted a few minutes ago for the most ridiculous over the top comment on this thread, don't you?

That's why it got the response it got.

I think you're on a wee mission here love so on you go.

And do please show me the horrified posts when you get one and a link to calendar girls WI photo that most looks like olas soft porn shoot.

I think Cherrybomber had the guts to say what others were thinking. I'm an adult and it would take a lot more than a cheap, tacky print to 'horrify' me.

That said, I think its unfair to ridicule anyone just because their views differ to yours.

Won't waste any more time on you.. I can see you have a problem- making a ridiculous over the top statement in the first place, which shows zero understanding of what men would consider to be a turn on (as in the Ola photo isn't even soft porn)

She's not doing anything inappropriate on the show, so I don't see CRH's problem.

Yeah and me

I thought this was 2015 not 1915.

The obvious difference between the Women's Institute calendar and Ola's is that the WI's had nothing to do with sex - it was ordinary women being photographed doing ordinary things, sans clothing. There was also an element of humour in what they were doing, plus a touching backstory behind why they decided to do it. Ola's calendars are about selling a sexualised image. There's no warmth or humour, as there was with the WI calendar. There isn't even any artistry - just Ola proving the well-known saying 'Sex Sells'!

Incidentally, I'm not horrified by Ola's calendar - it just all seems a bit desperate on her and James' part.

It's tacky.
