Now here's an interesting little item I picked up from the AP wire service  this morning:

Dame Judi admits to eyeing naked Bob Hoskins

New York. Dame Judi Dench, who plays a 1930s British impresario who opens a nude theatrical revue in the film Mrs. Henderson Presents, admits to sneaking a peek at co-star Bob Hoskins, who appears briefly in the nude in the movie.

"Of course! Don't think I'm going to let Bob Hoskins take all his clothes off and me not take a look," the British actress said in Newsweek. "I just had a quick look up and down, like you would," she said.


Not moi . . . ! 

Ah yes...

My primary motivation for seeing this film was because Pop Idol Will Young gets nekkid in it (you don't think I like him for his music, do you? ). And as a bonus, there's Little Bob right after. Enough to put you off your tea!

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!

[Dalton's Wendy]

2006 - WHAT NEW BABE ACTIVITIES ???

Not resolutions, but I wondered WHAT NEW ACTIVITIES THE BABES MIGHT GET UP TO in this coming year ???

Can they put on their thinking caps on and suggest some new initiatives:

Some suggestions:

1) Mud volleyball championships
2) An all night Barbecue (indoors til the temperatures lift)
3) Strip Bridge
4) Tanning sessions (to counteract S A D)
5) Celebrity cooking demonstrations
6) A Big Brother House

WELL ??????

Yes, I could suggest something:

Strip I. Q. contest!

(uhhh. . . just what, exactly, are you planning to barbecue? Haggis, perchance?)

[Dalton's Wendy]

6) A Big Brother House

Yes, I could suggest something:

Strip I. Q. contest!

(uhhh. . . just what, exactly, are you planning to barbecue? Haggis, perchance?)

I agree ... a very good game.

I have always been good on voyeurism ... though I dont think you will agree !!!

As to barbecue .... Haggis, yes, black pudding, white pudding, SOSSAGES, more black pudding.

So game first, then barbecue at interlude ????

Before I commit, I need to have answers to the following questions:

1. What is black pudding?
2. What is white pudding?
3. What is haggis?
4. What is a Big Brother House?
5. What is this thing about voyeurism?

5. I win and watch

Anything else ????

1. clever
2. brilliant
3. Stuffed innards
4. tells me nothing

Yes -- I'm calling my lawyer!

2 out of 5 only = 40%  ( a fail)

As to 3)Surely i don't have to refer you to

http://news.bbc.co.u...and/4623759.stm    again !!!

how many how many how many times do i need write this.

as to 4) A reality caper involving stars of past and present, nobodies, doomkophs, dimwits and dummies.

as to 5)  May i remind you again (sighs) ... about seeing your local Doctor (no, not me) about you being in denial.

What's lifting your phone for your lawyer .... can yee not make any prima facie decisions on your own without resrt to the ... mmm ... bar ???

The individual who scored 2 out of 5, 40% (me) surpasses he who scored a 0 out of 5 . . . 0%!

1. and
2. I was being facetious.
3. There is no such living creature as a haggis! Stop following me around the internet trying to convince me of this Caledonian fairy-tale!
4. Sounds perfectly low and vile (shudder!). Doubtless, it is a no. 1 hit.
5. You are a doctor like I am a man!

Re my solicitors: why shouldn't I phone them, if I so choose? They're on retainer anyway.

In fact, just the week before the holidays, I called up my lawyer and said, "Can I ask you two questions, please?"

"Sure," he replied. "What's the second one?"

Whilst you're there could you pick me up a treble (don't hold with measures)
Davido Campari  per favore e subito !!!!

Pick it up yourself . . . (Subito! The unmitigated gall!!!)

1) BLACK PUDDING: Made primarily from Blood, Suet and Oatmeal. Black Pudding also contains onion which when coupled with a unique blend of spices creates a product full of Scottish flavour.

2) WHITE PUDDING: Simply oatmeal and suet with a traditional blend of spices. Perfect for a "braw bricht winter's nicht"
Anything else????

1. Shudder!
2. Well . . . not as bad . . .
3. Still awaiting answers to items 3, 4, and 5.

I for one will be tying on a few martinis and trying to see if I can take more than 2 shots of tequila w/out hitting the floor.

Wow..what happened to this thread? No posts in over a year and half??!! I thought it was a clever thread, it's a shame it died! I thought for sure there would be lots of talk about how CR affected the women, we know how it affected the men!

[Milovy]

Well, I have a new blog called Bond Girl which is open to any other Bond girls who want to drop by

[Dalton's Wendy]

Wow..what happened to this thread? No posts in over a year and half??!! I thought it was a clever thread, it's a shame it died!

Thank you, Monique.

What happened to this thread was that after 25,000 views in 3 months' time, I opened my own forum, so people could discuss things in addition, but not limited, to Bond.

Glad you enjoyed this thread while it lasted.

Then again -- it can still continue!

I thought for sure there would be lots of talk about how CR affected the women, we know how it affected the men!

There is only so much that can be said on any topic; after that, it palls.

Wow..that's nervy, plugging your site you banned me from while replying to my post.

There are a lot more females on this thread than just you, and I think it would be nice if you are too busy with your own site, if they/we had a place to post here. Maybe it will die off again, who knows? I just thought after a year and a half a lot more females have joined especially afer CR's release. I know you put a lot of effort into this thread, when most of us don't have the time to do that. I just thought I'd bump it back up. So where are you Alessandra, Lady Rose, etc...?

Indeed, very odd especially as Ms DW asked the members on her new forum not to post on this one!!!


indeed.

Thank you Ms. Minniespinney! Did she really??? Doesn't surprise me!

SO do you think we can get this going again, or are there just too many posts here to get enough attention to it? It's such a big forum it takes forever to scroll through all the topics!

[Santa]

OK, so I haven't read through however many pages there are of this yet, but I'll start here as this made me laugh:

Which got me to thinking that 5 or 10 years from now you will never be hearing any female celebs naming Daniel Craig as being one of the ten "sexiest men."

I'm still waiting on this thread to deliever on the promise of providing a "female viewpoint" on Bond. Come on ladies, you must be out there.

I can't speak for any other women but I'll give it a go from my point of view. Most unhelpfully, I am unable to say exactly what the attraction is. This is not going well already...
I do know that by the time I was about 7, friends, family, teachers, other kids in the street, everyone knew that if a Bond film was on the telly on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon, as they frequently were in the early eighties, I would not be coming out to play, I wouldn't eat, I wouldn't do anything. The whole weekend was building up to and aftermath of Bond. On the Monday following such a weekend, I remember the teacher would ask if I'd enjoyed the Bond film in class. The thing is, I don't remember publicising my love of Bond at that time. I was a fairly quiet child (hard to believe, I know ) and spent much of my time in class and practising with my gymnastics coach, but somehow everyone knew about Bond and me.
I couldn't tell you which I saw first, it was too early but I do remember, very early on, being utterly chilled by the spaceship swallowing in YOLT; disliking Jaws but loving Drax; and wondering what he actually meant by writing 'From Russia, With Love' on a photo. I was young . As I got older, I bought and read all the books, both Fleming and continuation novels, joined the fan club, collected the videos etc. By my teens, I was pretty wild and even though most nights I was pretty stoned there were times I could be found absolutely joint free with my head buried in Benson's 'Bedside Companion' e.g. There was not a lot else around at that time that kept me out of trouble. Going on, all my boyfriends ended becoming Bond afficionados, then my first husband and any close friends, right up to my current husband who, for various reasons has never seen a Bond film or read a Bond book.
I found I liked glamorous things, fast cars, high heels and had a terrible, painful wanderlust and sense of adventure. I also had a (possibly undeserved) reputation for being distant and cold. I also have some very anal tendencies , so I started identifying with Bond, I could see the similarities and why he was the way he was (written, that is). I think this is why my Bond love has endured. It has outlasted my animals, men, houses, various friendships... I can't see it ever ending. Bondworld has infinite variety - it has travel, glamour, romance, adventure, mystery, even a certain unique morality. How can anyone not love it?
Oh dear, how I do go on, sorry 'bout that

[Santa]

Do they think that Craig is handsome, attractive and fits the Bond description?

In the traditional sense? No, probably not at all but attraction is so subjctive after all. What he is, is masculine, physically fit, cold looking. All those things appeal to me far more than pseudo-charming or pretty but I can see why he wouldn't be to everyone's taste.

Same applies to me. The George Cloonies of this world, though pleasant to look at, leave me cold. I prefer a man with a certain world weariness about him and Craig certainly has that. I can see why he wouldn't appeal to everyone but as you say attractiveness is very subjective and usually involves a lot more than just looks.

I have found myself finding the most unlikely subjects attractive, James Gandolfini springs to mind ( or perhaps more accurately Tony Soprano) and I can see why the likes of Donald Trump attract such beauties ( obviously being a billionaire helps a lot ). Attractiveness is as much about how the person carries themselves as well as appearance.

We are of the same mind - it's brilliant, everyone else thinks I'm mad having a bit of a thing for The Donald

I would only ever admit it on an internet forum

The Donald is extremely charismatic and a perfect example of what I'm talking about.

[Monique]

I got a smile out of that. I might have agreed with you about Trump in the 80's, but now, since his very nasty and public feuds with other celebs has him spewing hate speak all over the airwaves, I've lost a tremendous amount of respect for him. He's a chauvanistic, egotistical bore. He called Rosie O'Donnell a disgusting, fat degenerate because she dared question his judging Miss USA's ethics and made mention one of his casinos had filed for bankruptcy. He has been relentless in the press trying to get her back ever since. He's losing his power, "The Apprentice" is not as popular anymore, and he misses the adulation. If you guys had seen the coverage in the UK, it would have cooled your crushes! Even if you dislike Rosie, his relentless berating of her was shocking.

As for Tony Soprano, I can totally see the attraction, believe it or not!! Power and confidence is one thing, arrogance is another. A secure man is extremely attractive to me. Loyal, confident, strong, all qualities my dad had, which is probably the reason we like these kind of men, but that's another story!! I certainly don't need a pretty boy to interest me, and even though I do love Pierce, it's his personality that draws me as well as his good looks. I really haven't figured out Craig's personality yet, is he really a stubborn hot head, or just a misunderstood serious actor? He's a good example of someone I don't find attractive, yet see something sexy about him. Being James Bond could be helping in that department though...

Oh, he's well dodgy, I'd never say otherwise but I also believe he exaggerates that for the public. Anyway, it's not the power that attracts me - it's the hair

[Lady Rose]

Anyway, it's not the power that attracts me - it's the hair

The hair is indeed a work of art. Maybe in years to come it will hanging in the Louvre next to the Mona Lisa I remember watching one episode of the Apprentice when he was standing next to a helicopter. Everyone else was being blown from here to kingdom come but the hair didn't move.Unbelievable.

Actually, here in the UK we haven't had all that stuff with Rosie O'Donnell we just have had the first couple of seasons of The Apprentice but even thats stopped now ( we have our own version with the very unattractive Sir Alan Sugar who's only worth a paltry

No, Darling -- there are 51,935 posts.

No, they are not all about Wendy.

They are about a congenial group of friends, and the comments and friendly discussion which this group exchanges.

Which is a bit more than YOU have to offer. A member here since 30th May, and you have only made ONE post?

Is this the best you can do?

Are you truly here to discuss Bond, hi-jinx -- and all the other fake names under which you have registered, and with which you keep trying to register on my forum -- or just to insult me?

I think it is fairly obvious, at least to anyone who possesses the intelligence and the capability to properly quote a forum post . . .
