Is anyone else enjoying the Radio 2 1950's "pop up" station on digital radio till tomorrow. I only caught up with it yesterday and am now listening to as much as possible, although it's possible to catch up on the various programmes for the next 29 days.

Why have I written on this thread? Well, because Twiggy has a programme playing during the event, along with lots of other 'golden oldies' smile

Phew, I thought I was the only person to dislike Helen Mirren.

I love Twiggy!

Helen Mirren " I don't think I'm sexy" well actually that's because you are not.
She looks out from her adverts as if she is Helen of Troy.
Can you tell I am not a fan?

Helen Mirrem, a bit too full of her own perceived importance. Twiggy always seems refreshingly ordinary

Marmark1 - know what you mean. A bit like an old-style head mistress!

Me too NotTooOld,more normal,not full of hang ups.Helen Mirren always looks like she's ready to jump down your throat if you say something she don't like.

I saw her on 'Who Do You Think You Are?' a while back. She does seem a lovely person. I think she's a better role model than Helen Mirren.

I never was the right shape for her style sad

I don't hate them - I'm just not the right shape for them.

She always seems very jolly and natural. I hate her clothes for M & S though.wink

I met her at a book signing about 6 years ago. She was lovely, laughed at my jokes and was completely normal. She has very dry skin but doesn't seem to have "done" anything to her face.

How refreshing to see Twiggy on The One Show tonight - such a natural , normal person who's growing older gracefully with no sign of surgery or Botox. Good on you Twiggy.
