Somehow, Dirk has even managed to make what is virtually a bikini top/sports bra -
disguised by armour - look good!!!!!!

Blimey - my granny, family and my cat!

Thought I'd post my nominations for the Dirkys - apologies if the quotes aren't quite right as it all happened too too long ago

Best task moment: The showgirl task - DB put in so much effort and he looked great in red!
Best diary room entry: Describing Danielle as talking like a truck driver and this "from the country that gave us Shakespeare "
Best nomination of a HM: Nominating himself and describing all his faults that the other HMs would cite ending with "how this guy ever had a TV career is amazing!" I think we know how and why!
Best reaction to an eviction: Saying it like it was after Jackiey's eviction ... "she's a vicious mean-spirited person."
Best Shirk moment: After Shilpa said she would marry at 60, saying "I can't wait that long dear, if we're going to do this it's got to be soon."
Best awwww bless moment: "Can you get me Shilpa's phone number?"
Best Dirky Dancing: the one and only Me and Mrs Jones.
Best hairstyle: Wet and tousled after the obstacle course.
Best bum shot: Emptying the bin on the final day .... no, in fact, all of them
Best yellow jacket moment: The YJ cooking - what a very talented YJ.
Best outfit (eviction): The final night - sooooooo sexy in black!
Best outfit (non-eviction): The servants task uniform - sooooooo sooooooo sexy in uniform!!
Best one-liner in a comedy moment: Who is Jo's role model? "Linda Blair" - a moment of divine inspiration from DB!
Best one-liner in a dramatic moment: ""Now begins the torture!"
Best one liner in a romantic moment: "I used to treat the women in my life like BB treats us and it's got me nowhere! I gave tham tasks, I gave them a reward if they did it well ...." (Well, it does it for me and we can all dream about the rewards )
Best HM in a Dirk suppoting role: Leo - a great straight man for Dirk's humour.
Worst HM in an anti-Dirk suppoting role: Jade - especially for whiskeygate which was pretty much the start of the farce that followed
Best CBB moment: Arriving in the A Team van to the A Team music - and all the 26 days of Dirk fun that followed

Thanks for letting me know. I completely agree about how great he looks. I think some investigation needs to be done as to how to get hold of a copy

Wow I wonder how long we have to wait to see this episode of BG?

hehe - I'd forgotten about that one - brilliant!

Very nice, very squeezable indeed

can't think what you mean!

Can I just ask? Do you just love Dirk for when he was younger or do you think he has still got it?

Definitely stll got it - in, fact getting better all the time

just checking

I have to say that I had a crush on Dirk when he was on TAT and thought then that he was lovely and also loved the character he played. After being re-acquainted with him on CBB I still think he's got something special. More so because we saw the real Dirk and not just a character. The real person was a revelation to me. I just loved his sense of humour and personality. Quite often when you to see the real person you can go off someone but Dirk had the complete opposite effect

Am off out for some boogy, later dirk fans x

I tend to agree with that. What we saw on BB was a complex man with the multitude of characteristics that that implies. That is what made him so interesting to watch and listen to - it helped create the tensions which sometimes surrounded him as well as the good humour and spiritedness that shone through so much of the time.

I have to be honest - I don't really remember him from the A team - well I do but vaguely - I was just impressed with him as a person in CBB - what I loved about him was the fact that he didn't give a damn what others thought of him - he was just himself - I respect him for that and I love his dry sense of humour - also for a man of over 60 I thought he looked amazing.

Still got it! very very sexy man!
Strange though, I thought he looked ok younger, and only started to take note in CBB.
But now I'm looking back at him younger I have new appreciation for him!!

I was totally unaware of DB before CBB - although I knew who the others in the A Team were, I had never actually watched the programme itself, and certainly didn't recognise Dirk at the start of CBB

So it has been very enjoyable to see all this evidence of his previous incarnations and put them together with the Dirk playing himself, so magnetically, and so many years later, on CBB!!!!!

I would most definitely say that Dirk has still "got it"!!!!!
In fact, I don't think he could lose it if he tried!!!!!

I supspect the medium that reveals most about the real man is his writing. I have not read either of his books (Kamikaze Cowboy on order but not arrived yet ) but it seems that these cover the most important times in his life - both the good and the bad - and, from what he has said, it is the medium he is most comfortable with.

He was just so impressive on CBB in every way and like a fine wine - he just gets better with age. I think it was Dirk playing "himself" that gained him loads of new fans and the massive interest in his books must have proved to him just how big his fan-base really is in the U.K.

I'm just wandering in because there's nothing on telly. I've had a busy day :yawn: . Can't wait for best of dirk awards tomorrow night. Will it be glitzy like the Oscars?

Only the best award ceremony will do for Dirk - red carpet, goody bags for all us stars (dirkettes) and a speech from the winner!!

I am willing to sell my granny and my goldfishes to get a ticket to see that too.
That episode should be coming up very soon on Bravo!!

Oh Fruits i've gone all hot now looking at that picture. When will that episode be on because i've only just starting watching BG this week.

Both I am greedy!!!

I fancied the pants off him in the A Team...He was beautiful back then with his younger look, silky blonde hair, blue eyes, gorgeous smile but i had no idea that he still looked extremely handsome in his 60's until i saw him on BB. He has aged so damn well and i can't help but fancy him even more now!!

They haven't aired that episode yet so you are in luck. I think it should be sometime next week.
*can't wait*
