THE RALPH TOMATO BOARD

Celebrity Obits

Dead Pool 2008

Subject	Author	Date
Anybody let Bill T. know about the demise of this board?	Teller	13/06/08 9:11
I have no idea what became of the Bebe Daniels epic! It vanished in the grat meltdown. It's probably out there somewhere, I just have to find the link. (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 10:32 Does anyone even have a copy of this epic?? (NT) -- Curious, 19/06/08 6:59 Only Jerry Lewis. He's shown it to a few people (notably Harry Shearer who found it ...er...interesting). But I fear we may never see this epic in it's completed form. Not till Jerry pops anyway. (NT) -- Kim, 19/06/08 10:33 No I meant does anyone have a copy of the Daniels epic? (NT) -- Curious, 19/06/08 16:36 Oh sorry! That serves me right for reading the board first thing in the morning. Yes, I think I have a copy of it somewhere on my computer. (NT) -- Kim, 19/06/08 18:48 Have Plumpy, Will Travel -- Bill T., 19/06/08 6:53
Drunk baby born 15 times over limit	Poland	11/06/08 1:26
Poor kid will probably has Fetal Alcohol Syndrome. I'll pray for it for there's not much that can be done for FAS kids. (NT) -- Jeanne, sadly, 11/06/08 8:02 I worked with a girl (adult) who had Foetal Alcohol Syndrome, such a distinctive facial... er...imperfection...goes with this syndrome. Quite a sad thing. (NT) -- Kim, 11/06/08 10:42 Sad diagram ... -- Link, 13/06/08 19:49 As a former CWS/CPS Social Worker.... -- Bill T., 19/06/08 5:14
Board Leadership	Jeanne	13/06/08 12:44
I think it's just fine with you as the Hostest with the Mostess. -- Kim, 13/06/08 13:53 Thank God for Continuity! -- Bill T., 17/06/08 4:54 Jeanne, I'm happy to see you take over for Kim .... -- Karen, 13/06/08 13:54 Wow, Kim! Posting one second apart .... great minds think alike... (NT) -- Karen, 13/06/08 13:57 Oh no Karen, speak for me please!! If it were left up to me I wouldn't have even thought to bring in some chipmunks. (NT) -- Amy, 14/06/08 1:50 Ralph Tomato! Your chipmunk analogy is priceless. That's also how I see myself tackling the job of boardmistress. (NT) -- Micki...thank you, Jeanne, for taking on this daunting task!, 14/06/08 8:07 Maybe Co-Mods Working Together? -- David S., 13/06/08 16:39 I like David S's idea. See my plea below for a Graphics Editor. (NT) -- Jeanne, 13/06/08 22:09 I third the motion for Jeanne to rule the roost. ...Just be kind in your reign, kind lady. Remember Jeanne, as Jesus said, "...With great power comes great responsibility", ...or was it Spidey? ...hum. (NT) -- the Chronicler, 13/06/08 19:32 I think it was Spock in Wrath of Khan. (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 20:05 The masses have spoken! I humbly agree to to try to fill Kim's extra-large Jimmy Choos. However, is there anyone who want to be Graphics Editor? Or at least fill in while I learn how? (NT) -- Jeanne, 13/06/08 22:06 "To to try" - see, I'm stuttering, just like George VI did when he succeed his brother. the charismatic and immensely popular Edward VIII after the abidcation. (NT) -- Jeanne, 13/06/08 22:14 What do you need to know? (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 22:57 I'll email you with my qestions, Kim. (NT) -- Jeanne, 15/06/08 8:43 WELL! I finally am able to access the board, and it's all changed! -- Kathy, 14/06/08 7:36 Before I go for the evening ... some Ralph Tomato-worthy pictures for you all (especially Kim) -- Kathy (), 14/06/08 7:38 No thanks - I'm not washing my hands with that alcohol laden spooge! (NT) -- Micki...the horror, the horror..........., 14/06/08 8:11 That soap despenser is soooo wrong and sooo RALPHTOMATO! Thanks for the big guffaw and laugh! (NT) -- Bill T., 19/06/08 4:56
OMG! I just saw Beyond the Valley of the Dolls. I've never seen so many bosoms! There was so much wrong with that film! Unresolved plotlines, mistifying characterisation, crap editing and horrifying acting. It had it all! Why do people give directors like Russ Meyer money to make films?.....it's the boozies, isn't it? There can be no other explaination. (NT)	Kim	28/05/08 22:46
It was written by film critic Roger Ebert! (NT) -- D., 29/05/08 3:54 WTF was he on!? I've seen Ed Wood films with greater plot development. (NT) -- Kim, 29/05/08 9:55 Did the bosoms have nurples? (NT) -- Jeanne, 29/05/08 13:50 They did indeed -of all descriptions! This film also contains one one of the worst lines in movie history when the villanous Phil Spector-eque character declares to a person who spurns his advances that he will make him "drink the black sperm of vengance"...........eeeeeeeeewwwwwww! .......It really was a stinker. (NT) -- Kim, 29/05/08 14:29 Kimmy, Kimmy! "BTVOTD" is one of my guilty pleasures... -- SusieQ, 16/06/08 14:50 Real Life Claim to Fame Link of Bill T. to BTVOTD -- Bill T., 17/06/08 4:44 I found that movie very confusing. But silly me for wanting a plot out of a Russ Meyer film. (NT) -- Kim, 17/06/08 11:16 I had to bathe with an extra course loofah after a recent viewing of it ! -LOL Roger Ebert's only screen effort! ...Thank God. -- the Chronicler, 17/06/08 12:15 I'd forgotten that Michael 'Lance Rocke' Blodgett died last Fall, and was married to Meredith Baxter (after Birney), AND was the screenwriter for 1989's "Turner & Hooch" ! -Lordy! (NT) -- the Chronicler, 17/06/08 21:42 Oh, and Happy 66th to Roger Ebert, today ! (NT) -- the Chronicler, 18/06/08 18:37
Retro candy. Thought I'd carry it over here	Kathy	17/06/08 14:12
Princess Eugenie caught cavorting buck naked	"Blowing off steam at school"	17/06/08 12:28
$20,000 a month isn't enough for Daddy Dearest! Britney Spears pa asks the court for even mo'money....	Micki...for helping her grocery shop, for visiting her in the hospital and cooking the occasional meal. Whadda prince!	17/06/08 11:43
Never trust mountain folk. -- Devil Anse, 17/06/08 12:05
A tomato joke!	To make you ralph!	14/06/08 12:09
OOooohh. This board transition isn't going to be as pretty as I hoped. (NT) -- the Chronicler, 14/06/08 15:50 another one!! you probably don't want to read this one, Chron. -- Amy, 14/06/08 22:44 OK, ok ...You asked for it! -- the Chronicler, 15/06/08 8:47 OMG! Your'e joke WAS cute Paulicher (that'll be the last time I promise. I just never knew until recently) but the picture of that cat was too fu@king funny! (NT) -- TOBY, 17/06/08 6:29 Mayonnaise (shudder) - eeeewwww! BTW, what the hell happened to that cat?!? (NT) -- Micki...this gives a totally new meaning to "shave your cat", 17/06/08 11:34
Diana's butler: I had sex with her	Shocking claim	16/06/08 4:30
Wow, he was older than I thought ! ... -- the Chronicler, 16/06/08 7:17 I'm surprised people (i.e. editiors) still give this wind-bag any copy space. What's he going to say next: "I am Diana's love child and next in line for the throne"? What a loser. (NT) -- Kim, 16/06/08 8:25 You mean there's a butler in England who can get a stiffy and put it in a "taco"? (NT) -- Bill T., 17/06/08 4:46 *gulp* "...How viviiiiiid." (NT) -- A.Mame, 17/06/08 10:40 Well, I'm surprised if that one can. Most of his 'I was Diana's rock' schtick is apparently saved for young boy things he's trying to dust and polish. (NT) -- Kim, 17/06/08 11:18
Interesting article: Gay Brain Shows Gender Atypical Traits	Kathy	17/06/08 11:15

Capture The Pic Themes For Ralph Tomato	David S.	13/06/08 16:45
I say we all get our digital cameras and some tomatoes, and let our imaginations run wild. I'm digging thru my craft room for some tiny sunglasses and mini pearls for my Hot Tomata! Maybe someone could search tomato cartoons on the net, too. (NT) -- Micki...the possibilities are endless, 14/06/08 8:31 I love this idea! (NT) -- Jeanne, 14/06/08 11:48 I'm game. -- the Chronicler, 14/06/08 16:06 In case you just plain believe tomatos are evil ! ... -- the Chronicler, 15/06/08 17:55 Help! I'm technically challenged!!! -- SusieQ, 16/06/08 14:54
I know a lot of people can't stand him, but this IS funny.....	Kim	15/06/08 23:17
That's from Jerry's movie "The Patsy" (1964) (NT) -- D., 16/06/08 2:52 He is a guilty pleasure, isn't he?? The amazing thing is ... -- the Chronicler, 16/06/08 7:27
Singapore armpit-sniffer gets caning, 14 years jail	What can I say?	14/06/08 15:23
Pit sniffer gets 14 years, R.Kelly walks for having sex with kids! -- the Chronicler, 14/06/08 15:49 Here's what made the difference..... -- Kim, 14/06/08 17:30
I found this great new "ART CLOCK" website out there, that students just completed. ...Pretty cool >>>	the Chronicler	3/06/08 17:50
That is spiffy. It's one of those things a person could get easily hypnotised by. (NT) -- Kim, 4/06/08 13:37 This is mesmerizing! Thanks for sharing it, Cron. And, in addition to thanking you, I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your posts and how glad I am that you've joined us here at Grooverama! (NT) -- Jeanne, 7/06/08 2:16 Jeanne, thanks for your kind words. ...I enjoy sharing the trivia, as well as learning new tidbits. Just do the board proud on your watch. I know you will. I've been lurking it for years. (NT) -- the Chronicler, 13/06/08 20:08 Well, there was five minutes of my life gone. Very mesmerizing!!! (NT) -- Amy, 13/06/08 22:57 It works better after smokin' some 'herb'. (NT) -- the Chronicler, 14/06/08 5:04 A guy named Chron would know. ;>) (NT) -- Micki...you, Snoop Dogg and I are gonna HAVE to get together LOL, 14/06/08 8:17 Fo-shizzle. (NT) -- the Chronicler, 14/06/08 16:07
Happy Friday the 13th !	This Day in History	13/06/08 21:42
Here's one for you Jeanne - La Merm singing 'Got a lot of living to do'. A real time piece!	Kim	9/06/08 19:51
Thank you, Kimmie, dear! I enjoyed it immensely! (NT) -- Jeanne, 10/06/08 8:10 Borgnine boffed that? Really?? ...Of course the return trip wasn't scenic either, but still. ...In any case, their 32-day marriage seemed excessive to me. (NT) -- the Chronicler, 13/06/08 19:54 Apparently, La Merm resented Ernie's popularity with McHale's Navy. She only gave him a single blank page in her autobiography. (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 20:04
Don Knotts in The Ghost and Mr Chicken - Love this!	Kim	8/06/08 12:23
"Atta boy, Luther!!" (NT) -- D., 8/06/08 13:33 Let me clarify that..... (NT) -- Kim, 9/06/08 11:35 "What is brave? Take your World War 2. Let me clarify this..." (NT) -- Luther Heggs, 9/06/08 12:01 Theme to "The Ghost & Mr. Chicken" -- Vic Mizzy's masterpiece!, 10/06/08 5:02 Kim, I'd forgotten how to post a direct YouTube link on a page. Help me out, pleeease. (NT) -- Thanks, 13/06/08 20:00 It's easy. Just..... -- Kim, 13/06/08 20:02
Just to clarify.......	Kim	13/06/08 13:50
Kim, I'm curious. Why abdicating your throne?? ...Been here a long while, no? (NT) -- the Chronicler, 13/06/08 19:34 Yes, it's been a long while but..... -- Kim, 13/06/08 20:00
In the spirit of the upcoming US election for President, I have to ask all Groovers: Who's your favourite movie President? (NT)	Kim	7/06/08 12:09
Abraham Lincoln was a mighty fine man! (NT) -- D., 7/06/08 16:05 Yes but he was real president. I was after a fictional one like Martin Sheen in The West Wing or Harrison Ford in Air Force One (although I was on Gary Oldman's side on that one). (NT) -- Kim, 7/06/08 16:28 Oh, in that case, maybe Kevin Kline as "Dave" (NT) -- D., 8/06/08 6:21 I'm with you there, D. I loved Kevin Kline as the humble, loveable imposter prez. I just wish it could have happened to GWB for real. (NT) -- Micki...Kevin Kline rules!, 11/06/08 13:55 William Devane - The Missles of October '74 TV -- Teller, 8/06/08 6:42 Henry Fonda as the agonized Prez in "Failsafe." (NT) -- Jeanne, 8/06/08 9:30 Bill Pullman In Independence Day With Will Smith -- David S., 8/06/08 11:38 Pullman was too deliberately Clintonesque in that movie for my liking, although normally I'm a big fan of his. Did you know that some American cinema audiences actually cheered when the president's wife, who was clearly meant to suggest Hillary, was killed in the movie? (NT) -- Jeanne, 8/06/08 12:30 I really hated that film. I think it's the only film I've done an Elaine Benece-style heckle in. Every bugger in it made a speech before going off to do something heroic. Gimme a break. (NT) -- Kim, 8/06/08 12:42 What's an Elaine-Benece style heckle? (NT) -- Jeanne, not a devoted Seinfeld fan, 9/06/08 7:36 It comes at a part of the movie when the 80th person in a row has found their nobel purpose in life and gets ready to make 'the ultimate sacrifice'. Or in Elaine's case when the 80th person removes their clothing for no discernable reason and one (being the audience member) can hold it in no longer and heckles. It usually takes the form of 'Gimme a break' or (in my case) 'Oh for the Love of God just get in the plane and die, will you?' or in Legends of the Fall when I just laughed in all the wrong spots. This really isn't a Golden Age of cinema, is it? (*sigh*) (NT) -- Kim, 9/06/08 11:34 Kim, Nick Cage has a new movie coming out this summer (winter to you.) There's a chance for you do the Benece Heckle. (NT) -- Jeanne, 11/06/08 10:23 You probably wouldn't hear the heckle above the whinnying of the team of wild horses that would be required to drag me to a Nicholas Cage movie. (NT) -- Kim, 11/06/08 10:39 Rolling on the floor squashing Ralph Tomato! (NT) -- Jeanne, 11/06/08 11:35 I have to agree with Jeanne, with Fonda as Failsafe's President, second only by Peter Sellers' 'President Merkin Muffley' in "Dr. Strangelove, coincidentally the same year 1964. Rounding the Top 3 would be Lee Tracy as 'President Art Hockstader' in another Fonda film, "The Best Man" ! (NT) -- the Chronicler, 13/06/08 19:45
Let's start a new board: The Ralph Tomato Board! Who's in? (more details inside)	Jeanne	13/06/08 7:23
I'm game! (NT) -- D., 13/06/08 7:35 How can I not be in? -- Teller, 13/06/08 7:40 I'd like to pretend I really understand how it all works...but nope, not even close. But, I am excited at the prospect of continuing inane banter with people that make me laugh. Jeanne, I'm all yours.....can we make fun of Kim from time to time, and her love affair with Nic and Keanu?? (NT) -- Amy, 13/06/08 8:38 We can make fun of anyone and anything! We're the Ralph Tomatoes! (NT) -- Jeanne, 13/06/08 8:56 Why wait let's make fun of Kim now. What? You gonna make a fortune on E-bay. -- Teller, 13/06/08 9:06 If you have email addresses, please spread the word to the other Groovers who may not have checked in tonight to watch this space for news of the new board. (NT) -- Jeanne, 13/06/08 8:58 Now here's a case of great minds thinking alike. I was thinking what a shame it would be to bury the board (because there's no other place we can discuss anal bleaching) and I thought "I wonder if I just changed the name to Ralph Tomato and gave it a wee face lift?". Well, lo and behold! The same thought has been rippling through you all! I'm still stuck at home sick, so my project today will be: The making of Ralph Tomato! (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 9:53 Wheeee!! I'm soooo excited that the board isn't defunct! All hail Ralph Tomato! (NT) -- Karen, 13/06/08 13:38 I'm a traditionalist. Though in the minority, I am for keeping "Grooverama" now and forever. (NT) -- the Chronicler (sitting alone in corner), 13/06/08 19:36
. This is just for Jeanne! Happy Ralph Tomato Day! (NT)	Kim	13/06/08 10:47
Thanks, Kimmie! (NT) -- Jeanne, 13/06/08 11:31
Ralph Tomato, Kim. (NT)	Teller	13/06/08 10:26
Not too yellow? (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 10:32 It's a little hard on my eyes, I have a lot of floaters. Green might work better. (NT) -- Teller, 13/06/08 10:40 Better?? (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 10:46 Much better (NT) -- Teller, 13/06/08 10:56 Forget it, I found it. all the mesages have been deleted. -- Teller, 13/06/08 10:51 I don't know what happened. I though I was posting this in response to the Bebe Daniels post. Too much beer and smoking rope, I guess. (NT) -- Teller, 13/06/08 10:54 Oh That's just wrong. I'll see if I can get it regenerated from the back-up database. I think I have a copy on my computer at any rate so it won't be hard to fix. (NT) -- Kim, 13/06/08 11:02
Tomatoes make you ralph ...	Salmonella Sal	11/06/08 7:58
Ralph Tomato! (NT) -- !, 11/06/08 9:14 Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! (NT) -- Red Menace, 11/06/08 22:53 I'd forgotten all about that film! And me such an affectionado of bad cinema! Here's the theme song. Love it! -- Kim, 11/06/08 23:11 Too funny! (NT) -- Royal Shakespearean Tomato (by gracious permission of the Queen), 12/06/08 6:01
Today's pic: David Suchet	D.	11/06/08 15:12
Rupert Everett calls British soldiers "wimps", later apologizes	Actors say the darndest things!	10/06/08 12:04
There are actors I'd listen to on the subject. Richard Todd, for example, landed at D-Day. If he wants to give his opinion of the modern British Army, I'll listen with respect. The late David Niven parachuted behind German lines and was cited in dispatches for heroism. George Kennedy saw combat in WWII. Jack Warden was in the Battle of the Bulge. Rupe better keep his trap shut. (NT) -- Jeanne, harrumphing, 10/06/08 20:32 Don't worry Jeanne - I've talked to him and he's grounded for two weeks. He fully understands now that I did not raise him to say such stupid things. I also made him stand in the corner because he hasn't made his bed all week. (NT) -- Amy, 11/06/08 0:58 Ralph Tomato, Amy! You tan that boy's hide for him. (NT) -- Jeanne, 11/06/08 7:40
"If you can't do the time, don't do the crime!" (NT)	Fred the Cockatoo	9/06/08 10:02
I've never solved a crime, but I've had a cockatoo. (NT) -- Jeanne, 9/06/08 10:59 I have a crime fighting cat. Well, I'm sure he would if he didn't have better things to do. Like washing his bottom. (NT) -- Kim, 9/06/08 11:25 Er, I wasn't referring to pets. Although there was petting .... (NT) -- Jeanne, 9/06/08 21:24 Sorry Jeanne! My illness appears to be giving me brain damage. (NT) -- Kim, 9/06/08 23:34 LOL! Ditto, Jeanne! (NT) -- Micki, 10/06/08 14:20
Johnny Depp is 45 today. Here's a film clip he'd probably rather forget- from "Private Resort" (1985)	!	10/06/08 5:24
Hands up, everybody who'd like to check into a private reseort with Johnny Depp! (NT) -- Jeanne, with fingers brushing the ceiling, 10/06/08 9:45 Bet that's something you don't bring up at the birthday party. Isn't it a great thing the leotard and the headband went out of fashion. As for Mr Depp.... -- Kim, 10/06/08 9:59 Happy Birthday, Kim! I hope you caught that cold of yours snogging fab (if germy) guys at a fab b-day bash! (NT) -- Jeanne, 10/06/08 11:11 No I spent my birthday sick and isolated. It was quite dismal. (NT) -- Kim, 10/06/08 12:00
Anne Heche told to pay for son's care	She's still straight ?	8/06/08 10:32
Oh come on now, would you marry someone named Laffoon? It sounds like a character out of Edward Lear. (NT) -- Jeanne - some surnames ought to be allowed to die out, 9/06/08 7:40 Like Belcher. (NT) -- Kim, 9/06/08 11:28 There's actually a municipality here named ... -- Jeanne, 10/06/08 8:21 Who wouldn't want to live in Belchertown? I always thought the Brits had some great names: Who doesn't want to spend a saturday at a beach town called Bognor? (NT) -- Kim, 10/06/08 10:03 Bugger Bognor! (NT) -- George V, 10/06/08 11:08
Italian Spiderman - a series of shorts done by film students in South Australia. If you love cheesy, cult films, you will adore this. It's just hilarious!	Kim	10/06/08 10:56
West End is 'celebrity obsessed'	Says Jonathan Miller	10/06/08 2:27
For some reason this story made me queasy.	Colorado thong bandits	8/06/08 10:39
The thong is ended but the misdemeanor lingers on. (NT) -- Jeanne, 9/06/08 7:42 Ralph Tomato! (NT) -- Kim, 9/06/08 11:27
Democratic Party Is Over	David S.	4/06/08 13:38
Oh, no, it's not over. It won't be over till someone hits her with a tranquilizer gun and hauls her carcass away. I have to admit to being a Hill supporter, but this is not dignified in the least. Desperation is always such an unpleasant odor. (NT) -- Micki, 4/06/08 15:56 Well, she's probably not going to be asked to be Vice-President is she? I think they'll ask that pretty John Edwards instead. So, I suppose she's hanging on because it's all that's left. No dignity, though. (NT) -- Kim, 4/06/08 19:33 She's turned into a bunny-boiler, hasn't she? Fixated, strident and relentless. It's embarrassing to watch her. I've read, I think it was in The Wall Street Journal, that Obama won't give her the veep slot and intends to fob her off with a cabinet seat. That's more than she deserves - he ought to appoint her ambassador to Tuvalu. (NT) -- Jeanne, 7/06/08 1:53 I don't think that's going to be far enough away. Any thoughts on your VP to be? (NT) -- Kim, 7/06/08 2:10 Nothing wrong with sending her to Tuvalu (unless you happen to be a Tuvaluvian.) When she gets bored, Hill could star in a grass-skirt am-dram production of Call Me Madam. Although, there is another possible destination: McCain is quoted in today's press as saying the US should put a human on Mars. Let's send Hillary. As for a Democratic VP candidate, Edward Kennedy is my choice. (NT) -- Jeanne (full of distaste for this ridiculously complicated and prolonged process), 7/06/08 2:42 We're only halfway between the Iowa caucus & the national election! (NT) -- D., 7/06/08 3:22 Look, If this Rev Wright stuff had come out before Iowa, Hillary would already be the nominee. -- Teller, 7/06/08 8:54 It's OK, Teller. I don't mind political talk. Personally, I can't believe this has been going on so long! The election is THIS year, right? And BTW who's William Ayres? (NT) -- Kim, 7/06/08 9:58 Well since you asked. -- Teller, 7/06/08 10:24 Hillary stuck around because she was hoping a video would come out of Obama smoking crack with Louis Farrakhan! (NT) -- D., 7/06/08 10:51 Hmmm, hard to feel sorry for someone who blows themselves up constructing a nail bomb, isn't it? What a ghastly couple. (NT) -- Kim, 7/06/08 11:54 When you say "ghastly couple," Kim, do you mean Ayers and Dohrn? Or Bill and Hillary? (NT) -- Jeanne, 7/06/08 21:26 Either works. (NT) -- Kim, 7/06/08 23:27 Although, I have to add to this that I am sorry Hilary didn't make it. It would have been nice to have a woman win the presidency - although maybe not this one. She ran a bit of a dodgy race. (NT) -- Kim, 8/06/08 10:27

Also, I just saw an interview that mentioned that Robert Carlyle is bookies favourite to take over from David Tennent (when he moves on) as Dr Who! He'd be brilliant - although slightly threatening. Finally, a Doctor more scary than the Daleks! (NT)	Kim	1/06/08 22:26
I like Robert Carlyle. He was endearing in The Full Monty and genuinely terrifying in Eragon. But I think the Doctor Who series ought to stop when Tennant leaves. There will never, ever be anybody to equal Davey. (NT) -- Jeanne, 7/06/08 1:43 Well, Davey is divine! But people used to say that no one would better Tom Baker and Davey came along. (NT) -- Kim, 7/06/08 2:06 Excellent point! Speaking of those leaving the show, Russell T. Davies, the producer who revitalized the franchise, is moving on to other projects. He's a genius and he'll be missed. (NT) -- Jeanne, 7/06/08 2:08 That's a shame that he's leaving. He really did breath life (in the Aunty Mame sense) into the series. Speaking of the delightful Mr Tennett (who is never far from our thoughts) I managed to watch a whole 6 part series he was in called.... -- Kim, 7/06/08 9:55
John Thaw and Dennis Waterman! Is this pic from "The Bill," Kim? (NT)	Jeanne	5/06/08 10:57
The actors you have guessed correctly, but the TV show was the greatest police show ever made (bar none) "The Sweeney". (NT) -- Kim, 5/06/08 11:25 Both shows are legendary and, to my regret, I've never seen them as they were never shown here in the US. Lucky you to have seen them. (NT) -- Jeanne, 7/06/08 1:04 I am fortunate enough to own all 4 seasons and all three movies of The Sweeney. They are my most precious DVD items - even more so than my Joan Crawford collection. If you get a chance to see snippets on YouTube, it's worth the effort! (NT) -- Kim, 7/06/08 1:21

Jeez I thought the solstice occurred at the same time. June 21. -- Teller, 6/06/08 6:25 Yes indeedy. Solstace is on the 21st. But here, Winter starts June 1st and Summer officially starts December 1st. Don't ask me why. I think it just fits in better with the actual weather. (NT) -- Kim, 6/06/08 9:53 Well, I can see your point, It's supposed to be 100 degrees F. , right here on Saturday and Sunday. (NT) -- Teller, 6/06/08 10:11

I really like his feature roles, but I really love his many supporting cameo performances. ..."Let It Ride" and "Ocean's Eleven" have two of my favorite Coltrane performances, though "Cracker" & "Harry Potter" are his most successful efforts !

He's following in the footsteps of David Crosby, except that David was also able to father children naturally, something I fear is unnatural to Clay's Aiken Hard. (NT) -- Micki...who's zoomin' who?, 3/06/08 9:09 "Clay's Aiken Hard"?? (NT) -- Oooook., 3/06/08 10:21 I've not heard of him. What does he do? (NT) -- Kim, 3/06/08 10:29 My dear, he is barely a blip on the radar of life. He was runner up on American Idol a few years back; -- Micki, 4/06/08 13:59 Perfectly true, Micki. I wonder how many bands from the 70s would have mde it in this day and age. A bunch of short, uncouth fuglys like Ac/Dc would have never seen the light of day. (*Perish the thought*).

(NT) -- Kim, 3/06/08 10:30 Hey, D, would you spoil one plot point for for me? I don't have time to go to the movie (I'm working 70 hour weeks just now) and I've ... -- Jeanne, 3/06/08 13:47 To answer your question, Jeanne, YES!!! (NT) -- D., 3/06/08 16:44 Thanks, D! You just saved me $9.50. (NT) -- Jeanne, 4/06/08 5:02 I think I'll wait until it hits the dollar movies, but I really want to see this one on the big screen.

Homeless woman found squatting in a cupboard, unknown to the resident.	Jeanne	31/05/08 7:22
I knew someone who lived with a squatter in their house. It was one of those places where everyone was coming and going all the time and they all though the guy was someone else's friend. He was only found out when all the legitimate residents happened to be home at the same time one night. (NT) -- Kim, 31/05/08 10:00 I think I have have a squatter. It would explain why I can't find my favorite silk top, the earrings grannie left me and my best lace bra. (NT) -- Jeanne, 31/05/08 11:51

And a lot of us already know some of these facts. -- Teller, 27/05/08 8:42 That's a good question, Teller! Where is the link??? Bloody Voy! (NT) -- Kim, 27/05/08 16:39 Welcome back, Billy! You've had a hellish time, and I'm truly sorry. I'm glad you're on the mend and finally living in safe circumstances. It's good to have you back here with us.

Bionic star tops bad American accent poll	In a poll of the worst American accents used by British actors in US television series	27/05/08 21:06
I thought Ian McShane was supposed to be a Brit in Deadwood, not American. (NT) -- Kim, 27/05/08 21:07 Just as a side note- Bionic Woman (original and new) top my list as quite possibly the greatest ever thing to happen to television, toy collectors and quite possibly all of humanity! (NT) -- TOBY, 28/05/08 8:51 That's quitw a claim, Toby. Would you like to expand on that extravagant statement? (NT) -- Kim, 28/05/08 10:32 It's as simple as it is lame. I'm a huge fan and a bit of a loser for The Bionic Woman. Love the original series, loved the new one and spend too much on ebay buying crap associated with her old 12" figure and accesories that came out in the 70's. In fact if any Groovers have or know where I can get her Peach Passion outfit-okay, I'll stop. (NT) -- TOBY, 29/05/08 13:05 Who are radio Times readers to judge what the worst Amercian accents are? -- James M, 29/05/08 20:37 I thought so. Going from memory Al as raised in an American foster home but the other characters kept calling him a Limey so I asumed he was British born. I thought Ian McShane was fab in that. Although I didn't know it was possible to use every swear word in the lexicon and still be able to form a proper sentence. But I agree, James, one should only bag actors doing accents from one's own region. Like Meryl Streep in Evil Angels (*shudder*). Robert Downey Jr does a nice Australian accent though. We'll have him. (NT) -- Kim, 30/05/08 10:27

The Doctor is in.	Teller	28/05/08 8:59
Oh Teller, the new Doctor is the best! Yes, better than Tom Baker (and that's saying something) and the scripts have been cracking! There was on particular episode involving statues of angels which I watched at 7.30pm with all the lights on and was (at my age) scared witless! I rang a friend of mine straight after and her bluff husband sat there scared too. It was a corker! Do catch up with it if you can, you won't be disappointed. (NT) -- Kim, 28/05/08 10:37 Rowan Atkinson as Dr Who -- Funny, 28/05/08 12:11 How Many Spinoffs From Doctor Who There Are? -- David S., 28/05/08 15:04 There aren't any spin offs from Dr Who. The Doctor has assistants that change all the time. Could you mean one of them? (NT) -- Kim, 28/05/08 15:36 I believe Elizabeth Sladen is reprising the role of Sarah Jane Smith in the show. -- Teller, 29/05/08 7:24 Yes, The Character's Name Is Sarah Jane Smith (NT) -- David S., 29/05/08 7:33 She must be 90 by now! She can hardly run up and down the cardboard corridors these days. (NT) -- Kim, 29/05/08 10:04 She's 60. Not quite decrepit yet. (NT) -- Teller, 29/05/08 10:48 Really? I thought she must be much older than that. She was an assistant when I was a young 'un. Maybe I'm younger than I think! (NT) -- Kim, 29/05/08 11:03 Actually, if you define a spinoff as a show that uses characters that originated on another show (e.g., Angel was spun off BTVS) then Torchwood is a Doctor Who spinoff (NT) -- Jeanne, 29/05/08 6:50 Sarah Jane Smith Was A Character From Doctor Who (NT) -- David S., 29/05/08 7:34 Make That Sarah Jane Adventure -- David S., 29/05/08 7:50

Drea De Matteo: Flop TV show "Joey" ruined my career	Awww!	29/05/08 6:50
Well, hard to know what to say to that. Plenty of people have gone on to bigger and better things after a crap failed sitcom. (Calling George Clooney). I think the problem is she doesn't exactly have anything fresh to offer an audience, does she? There's not exactly a shortage of good-looking blondes in Hollywood is there?

(NT) -- Kim, 28/05/08 10:22 She Was Robbed Of The Grammy -- David S., 28/05/08 15:11 I have to disagree with you there, David. I agree Amy Winehouse is a total train wreck of a human being but that's a brilliant debut LP she's got there. If she can manage not to kill herself she could be one of the greats. I think the thing is with the Grammy's is they go for talent over 'family friendly' (thank God). Otherwise the only people to win anything would be boy bands and Christian rock groups (*shudder*). (NT) -- Kim, 28/05/08 15:42
I used to defend Denise Richards because we went to the same school (El Camino High) but seeing her new reality show, I now think she's just a crass bimbo lookin' for some easy money! (NT)	D.	28/05/08 1:06
Whoopi Goldberg takes Denise to task! -- "The View", 28/05/08 1:07 Well, Whoopi has a very valid point about her putting the kids on the show. You'll notice she doesn't answer the question though - straight to the mother having cancer and Charlie being a swine. She could be in politics with a deflection like that. I always think reality shows have the foul stench of 'my career is crap' about them. She needs to get a proper job. Although, the other woman is right about Charlie being teflon. But who doesn't love a rogue? (NT) -- Kim, 28/05/08 10:31
