I don't watch Emmerdale and haven't read or seen any HP, so I can't comment. However, I have been told by a few people who they think I resemble in the entertainment industry. Have any of you been told the same and who is it?

Prickles, I know, looks like Katie Melua ;-)

Yes Ann, Eric would be my choice for John as well. Can be funny but also irritating as well.

Sam is too nice AnnC to be John :-D

Now who can be Edna Birch and do we have a Cain Dingle?
:-D :-D

I don't watch Emmerdale and haven't read or seen any HP, so I can't comment either.

But I think these parts would be played well:

Laurel Thomas - Hayley
Ashley Thomas - BK
Bob Hope - MrM
Edna Birch - GoldenGirl
Pearl Ladderbanks - AnnC
Diane Sugden - Rambling Rose
Andy Sugden - Dan
Victoria Sugden - aivlyS
Jimmy King - Dermot
Sandy Thomas - JohnlovesCocoa

I haven't read LOTR or Harry Potter but I have read Jane Eyre (several times) and I could be the mad woman in the attic. :-D :-D

Means nothing to me, I don't watch it, should I be annoyed at the reference?

Sharron Report 19 Jan 2013 15:43

I have not read either of the books or seen the soaps but I have read other books and seen other films and programmes.

Amos Starkadder from Cold Comfort Farm is on here, as is Charles Hawtrey.

Crocodile Dundee is here too.

Joanna Lumleys Patsy in AbFab.

That woman who lived in the upturned boat with Mr Peggotty's family in David Copperfield and Mr Bounderby's housekeeper in Hard Times.

Then there is me.Piggy from Lord of the Flies perhaps.

Is there a Farmer Giles in Emmerdale?

As the only soap I watch is Corrie could some kind soul confirm how delightful Katie Macey is please
:-D :-D

Don't watch it myself, Gwynne. Just be flattered you have been chosen. Have always had a knack at casting.;-)

'Emma'

'Emma' Report 19 Jan 2013 15:48

John your more like Edna and Ashley's father is defo
not you.

JustGinnie

JustGinnie Report 19 Jan 2013 15:48

Only if John knows you Gwynne, I am no more a Chas Dingle than you are Debbie but only a bit of fun and John can't watch Emmerdale else he wouldn't have suggested Sandy as himself.

Debbie is 20 something and she has 2 children and is a bit of a mouthy girl.

Guinevere

Guinevere Report 19 Jan 2013 15:49

Not flattered in the least, John, if you don't watch it it's a pointless reference.

I do remember Coronation Street from years ago and you have a bit of the Norris about you, I think.

Edit: Thanks Ginnie, we cross posted.
