just watched the BBC Andrew Marr clip on I player. Sorry to say boys and girls, but she looked like an older version of that woman on AbFab. Not for me, but reading your comments maybe I need to get to specsavers ... they do glasses and hearing aids, don't they? |

A bit blokish for me, but....each to his own. |
