Should I post threads for ALL OF THEM? It would kill the Mine Field for everyone who isn't British, but it would be fun!

 

[whisky]

Maybe if you stick to the ones that are still alive it will save time

 

[CaptainWacky]

And the ones I've heard of (Cathernine Hook!?)

 

[whisky]

Yeah, I'm going to have to google that one myself

 

[whisky]

Just did and got nothing

 

[CaptainWacky]

Maybe she changed her surname to TATE OMG

 

[whisky]

I thought that was Alan Sugar

 

[Gagh]

And the ones I've heard of (Cathernine Hook!?)

Yeah, I meant Caroline Hook, who is of course, Caroline Ahern, who is of course, Mrs Merton.

[Gagh]

She's more of a Comic Actress, than somebody who has hosted a comedy series, or done stand up, which I think everyone else (including Wacky's choices) has done.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Ah. Noted.

STILL! SHE'S DREAMY!

 

[Gagh]

There is going to be a To The Manor Born Christmas Special, over 20 years since the last series.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

OMG I WANT!!!!111

Has to be at least 25 years by now, unless they did some reunion thing in the mid-80s I don't know about.

 

[curiousa2z]

^^well, if Led Zep can wait 27 years between gigs....

 

[Gagh]

Looks to be one of the best things on TV over Xmas. There's a special Extras on too, but Gervais is really beginning to grate now.

Tennent is in it by the look of the trailer
