Godot 149 Posted December 5, 2005 A crackerjack pencil used to be worth more than a Blue Peter Badge which reminds me John Noakes is getting on a bit now, not that he's one of the living dead, more like greatest living Englishman. I loved that man... sort of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Die 63 Posted December 6, 2005 A crackerjack pencil used to be worth more than a Blue Peter Badge which reminds me John Noakes is getting on a bit now, not that he's one of the living dead, more like greatest living Englishman. I loved that man... sort of. John Noakes was great. I remember him climbing up Nelson's column to clean it (sans Shep I think) and doing a parachute jump. And who could ever forget him slipping over on elephant S**t. He could have done Blue Peter on his own as Pete & Val were a couple of wimps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godot 149 Posted December 6, 2005 It's occurred to me that I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here is a shortcut to a whole load of living dead. I had completely forgotten Cannon and Ball. Carol Thatcher's "success" is yet one more turn of the rack on which her mother's tortured reputation is now so thinly stretched. The milk snatcher's family is cursed for ever more. Carry on living Lady T, reap what you sowed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carry on living Lady T, reap what you sowed Mrs T didn't watch the programme ... Carol didn't even tell her she was in it. I read somewhere that Mark was always favoured by Maggie & Dennis. A shame because Carol is 100 times more intelligent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godot 149 Posted December 6, 2005 Course she watched it. What else has she to do, dribblin down her cardie in East Dulwich? If Carol is intelligent why did she sign up for this bollocks? OK probably a few score thousand quid had something to do with it. But is it worth that to be consigned to the Living Dead? It's like a Faustian pact with Channel Four.

Tempus Fugit 214 Posted December 6, 2005 Don't you remember her saying: "We are a grandmother." I rest my case. Well sorry folks. I didn't watch this TV program. Maggie used the Royal "we" to describe herself. Unlike Carol, who uses her wee for a quick bit of TV infamy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banshees Scream 110 Posted December 6, 2005 Maggie used the Royal "we" to describe herself. Margeret Thatcher was never royalty and she never will be. Of course the woman herself may think she's royalty? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godot 149 Posted December 6, 2005 No Banshee, that wasn't a quote from "I'm a waste of space etc..." Old ma Thatch actually said it when she announced the birth of her first grandchild on the steps of Buckingam Place in 19somethingorother. It must have been a bumpy birth.

Godot 149 Posted December 6, 2005 That was missprint but I think I prefer Buckingham Place...like a street in Eastenders. Liz and the old man down the gaff, Maggie toasting her toes by the fire, a corgie in her lap, all watching "I'm a celeb etc". Liz nudges the old man: "'Ere Phil isn't that Cawol having a pee down there." Phil: "Leave off gewl." Maggie: "One is watching one's daughter don't one know." Liz: "Eeeeow, how charming."
