"Nun with a switchblade" is not only my new favourite phrase now but also a potential summer blockbuster about a maverick nun with a grudge.

They've not printed my comment, posted in the name of Terri Dwyer.
I did love this one however:
What a shame the time has come to finally taint Julie Andrews. I have never seen a bad word about her, to me she is a fine professional, and great role model for her followers. One of my dear late Mothers favourites, and one of mine too.
- Stephen Matthews, Northampton UK
I get the impression Stephen might be a friend of lowculture, even if he doesn't know it yet.

If he's not a friend of lowculture he's definately a friend of Dorothy by the sounds of it.

www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/femail/article.html?in_article_id=505087&in_page_id=1879*shudder* Nobody was more achingly cool, trendy and urban than our columnist Liz Jones.This is one of the most ridiculous articles I've ever read in my life. This waste-of-space witters away about how, living in London: I became nervous about stepping out of my front door after 6pm because of the gangs of feral children on bicycles, with pit bulls scampering menacingly behind.and how: Meeting a friend for dinner meant you had to spend £70 a head for a bit of flatbread and houmous and endure the waiter endlessly looking at his watch, wanting his table back.Well, yes, if you're a pretentious, ridiculous person like Liz Jones. Ugh.

I quite liked Ditte from Leicester:
I don't care what she is like behind the scenes, to me she will always be the icon of my childhood, the sole reason why I remember it with joy and passion, watching her on screen instead of taking drugs with the kids down the street.
I didn't realise sitting inside watching Julie Andrews and taking drugs in the street were the only two options for a Leicester childhood.

Essentially, yes haha. Depending on which suburb you're from, you're either going to be dealing the drugs, taking the drugs or have delusions of grandeur where you think you're better than Julie Andrews. Statistically, you're also likely to work in crisp factory.

[/quote] Liz Jones is one of the most repellent human beings to ever exist in the modern world. Her writing is always, always vile and always, always dripping in "poor old me" and bitterness. She has less self awareness than that poison dwarf Lowri Turner and that is really saying something. Her ex husband Nirpal is it? is even more hideous...he's an aging caner keith allen type and writes exactly like Jo Whiley would if any publication ever retardedly gave that hag an outlet to vent her ramblings you know "I used to like that band six years ago when I saw them at an underground venue in notting hill but know everyone else is into them man I hate them".

Brideshead Revisited, free in 12 parts from tomorrow.
I might send in a complaint seeing as I don't like to read my newspaper over breakfast and have blatant homosexuality forced down my throat. I like to wait until elevenses for that.

I have been reading several issues of the Daily Mail from the 1920s and 1930s recently for a research project. It is exactly the same as today - semi-fascist, anti-BBC and with an hilarious superiority complex.

I fell out with Mr. Lisa at the airport coming home because he wanted a British paper and they only had The Daily Mail. I was the only one with foreign money left and he had to go without. I wish one of you had been there to agree that I could not and should not part with well earned money for The Daily Mail - especially at foreign airport prices!

Rather fittingly this was in today's comic strips: Ha ha ha! She's single and alone. Probably because she wears make-up.

Couldn't they have found a picture of her without make up that wasn't from a film where she's playing an elf??
I read a Julie Birchill article which said that the Daily Mail's worst nightmare is that somehow, somewhere a woman is enjoying herself and getting away with it. I really hate that I agree with that...

I've become a lurker. I stopped watching Hollyoaks which removed most of my reasons for living my reasons for posting.

I think it's all part of a plan to make her mouth look proportionate to the rest of her body.

Claire has always said post-Steps how unhappy she was to be forced to stay as slim as she was. God forbid she actually be happy as a normal-sized woman.
Oh, and there's a charming comment underneath about her being a "bit of a porker". Give me strength.

I never actually knew her surname. I always assumed it was From Steps.
