Burlz what a stroke of genius! Even JR would find that funny I'm sure. You should think of a career as a script writer (as in TV not methadone....)

I thought how rough JR looked this evening. She looked quite unwell.

 

[Brissles]

Despite my email a few weeks ago, I dont see any evidence of hair being tied back while they are in the kitchen !!!!!!!!!!!

That is a huge bugbear with me too, Brissles.

It drives me mad looking at hair not tied back,I could never prepare food without my hair tied back in a ponytail.

Brilliant BB, how would the script differ if the asked her to put her hair back?

I don't like cooking so I didn't nip into Q during advert breaks that hour.
Julia is scheduled to launch the Lulu TSV so I'll have a decko then.
I thought she looked poorly last time I saw her.

Probably something along the lines of:-

"You might be surprised to know Julia but we've received a number of comments about long, loose, flapping hair during our kitchen demos although, frankly, I think the way you keep flicking yours is always done in a flirtatious way which you have mastered since your very first day with us. However, we need to take complaints seriously so if you don't fancy tying your curly or straight tresses back then we would like you to wear a Ken Paves number which you can then flick off at the end of the show to mop up all the spillages".

"Mark, you're really pushing me now but if Simon agrees then I'll do it although I ain't happy about the mopping up".

 

[Gemma1]

She looks really tired on the TSV launch show

 

[BusyLizzie]

She looks really tired on the TSV launch show

I agree.....think it's time she took a long break off our screens to give her body and mind the rest it needs to recover from whatever's going on in her life.

 

[dottiebird]

I didn't think she looked too bad actually, but I honestly don't think the purple eyeshadow she wears constantly helps...it makes her eyes look sunken and tired. She should give another colour a go "it might make her eyes pop a bit more" *said in my best Glen Campbell voice*.

Brilliant BB, you made me nearly spill my coffee when I read your post:clapping:

What's happened with Julia's adoration of the Elemis neck and bust cream, she used to be allover Keeley with their in jokes, about Julia using buckets of it.
Only this morning catching the repeat, was she commenting about worrying about her neck, or something along that lines?
I know I did hear her say she's introducing different products slowly, and will be making Lulu's neck cream her next Time Bomb purchase.

 

[minim]

I thought she looked tired last night.
I sympathise - I know the look.

 

[boffy]

purple eyeshadow is quite ageing anyway. i remember it being the colour to wear with brown or green eyes but that was a long time ago...

Are the cooking for the public?

 

[Brissles]

I would have thought "cast and crew" would count as public.
