I like the way Imogen is maturing too, Grooose. Hope she isn't tempted to try putting the clock back, there is nothing worse than the proverbial mutton dressed up as lamb. I just have a funny feeling that it won't be too long before the lovely lady mentions starting to feel broody. And why not?
I certainly hope she doesn't go down the botox route in the future. I just love her expressive face. It shouldn't be de-expressed!
And I love the expression she get's into her voice too for that matter.

As for feeling broody? Well Imogen is already quoted as saying that when her and Matt are having a 'lovely moment' she thinks about having kids. As you say, and why not.

An appreciative text in the Sunday Star today ....

"What an awesome cleavage Imogen Thomas has got! More pics of the Welsh wonder pls." Cosmo
I don't get the Star that often. And don't read the text section when I do. But I'd like to say, nice one Cosmo!
Well done for spotting it too Myk.


A little bit of other stuff now. The documentary about Imogen's Nails will air soon. And I'm really looking forward to that.

The TV listing I looked at had it listed like this -
Salon Imogen
S4C
Thursday, October 9th, 2008
9:00pm to 9:45pm

Having made a huge impact in Big Brother 2006 and in the modelling world, TV cameras follow Imogen Thomas as she ventures into the world of business, setting up a nail bar in Cardiff.

Thanks for the info about the Nailbar documentary Grooose.
I'm not familiar with S4C so assume it's a Sky one and I may not be able to get it ... I'll keep my eyes open - maybe I'll manage to find it on video.

You don't live in Wales then? From my distant view, wayyyy over on the opposite side of the country, S4C appears to be Channel 4. With Welsh bits.

As you might have gathered I can't get S4C either. But the show should (fingers very much crossed here) be available somewhere on the S4C Clic web page for about a month after transmission. And that's where I'll be lurking!

I'm nowhere near Wales in fact the only thing in common is the magnificient hills around this place ... Angus in Scotland on the edge of the Cairngorm National park ... it sound unlikely that I'd get the channel up here but maybe i can find someone to utube it. - If I find a link I'll let you know Grooose.

This is a little off topic, but my Dad loves walking the hills and mountains of Scotland. He was walking through Cairngorm back in May on a two week west to east coast walk across Scotland. He might be a little jealous of those hilly views myk.

He has walked in Wales too, but the Scottish hills just have that something that inspires him more. I'm the one that's been inspired by the best hills and valleys Wales has to offer. And speaking of Imogen.

There was a documentary about Imogen and Glyn last year on S4C that never made it to youtube. But I managed to see it by hanging around and searching from here S4C/Clic Home. Be great if the new show makes a youtube appearance though.

Hi Grooose, pleased to know that your Dad is familiar with the Scottish hills but as you note we can both share an interest in some of the soft hill's and valley's of Wales,
I'm sure that Imogen would excuse the pun. Thanks for the link, a few of my fellow Chanelle fans are Welsh so I'm sure they will be interested ... it's a pity to programme about Imogen and Glynn didn't make it to UTube ... but who knows, maybe it will emerge some day.
Hope the sun is shining over those Welsh hills today.

There's a thread with the link to the new trailer. I spotted Ash and Brian and rewound it back to see if I could spot any other HMs. I didn't spot that it was Imogen that Ash was hugging the first time around.

I don't see any reference to it on here so I thought it was worth mentioning that Imogen finished seventh in Cheeks All-time Ranking of the Housemates poll for 2008.

I know it was only a poll of around 70 FMs but it was still heartening to see that two years on from BB7 that many still hold her in such high regard. In fact she was the second highest finisher from BB7, only two behind Aisleyne in fifth.

I thought it was also notable, especially considering how much vitriol she attracted in the early weeks of BB7, how few FMs had her at the bottom end of their list, which is normally reserved for those they strongly disliked.

It also shows that Imogen made far more of an impact than many credit her for and that she is far from being in danger of joining the ranks of the largely forgotten.

Good find bluntbob.

Imogen and Aisleyne's friendship IMO was the most interesting and compelling female friendship in the history of BB. Certainly my favourite.

It's also good to see that they're still firm friends as evidenced by Aisleyne making the trip to Wales for the opening of Imogen's nail bar. Glyn being there as well was good to see.

But that's not true.
During bb9, a fm posted some stat showing that during week 4 of bb7, Imogen had an even lower popularity rating than Grace, who at that time was at the height of her infamy.
Generally though, for a good percentage of her stay Imogen was often ranked number 3 most disliked hm. I think that's why she stayed as long as she did, because there was always someone more unpopular than she was.
Her long stay had nothing to do with her being popular.

I think your possibly misinterpreting what I'm saying.

I was making the point that during BB7 Imogen attracted a lot of vitriol and had many that strongly disliked her, but that going by the poll history seemed to have treated her rather kindly. I wasn't saying that she wasn't strongly disliked at the time, just that she didn't have many that strongly disliked her on the poll (2008).

By contrast, those who had held her in high regard during BB7 still appeared to do so. That's not always the case, as people often with hindsight amend their views on housemates.

I don't think any of that contradicts your point.

A start date hasn't been released yet (as far as I know) but it shouldn't be long now.

Thanks for the link myk, I didn't even know it was on.

As a non-Welsh speaker, does anyone know if there's any way you can get subtitles for the programme?

The subtitles didn't appear to be available tonight when I watched it via the website. (The subtitle button on the player being greyed out.) But the same thing happened with the Imogen/Glyn documentary last year. The subtitles were added to it a few days later and I hope they follow the same pattern with this show.

I might not have understood all that was going on tonight but I still really enjoyed the show. So I'll definitley be looking out for the subtitles to appear.

I couldn't understand a word but could sort of figure out what was going on! Good to see 'Imogen' again...what I mean by that is it's good to see the person again rather than random photos and articles. Imogen's mum was funny. Typical mum!
