BarbinGlos, Katie is a delightful girl who is married to a millionaire (well he was) she is in her 20s, blonde and is recovering from falling down a disused mine shaft at the moment. She can be a bit moany at times :-(

Does this sound like you at all? :-D :-D

I like the idea I am like Edna. Can see that :-D

But not like her as Rose in Keeping up Appearances. She was a bit of a looker and a goer in those days ;-)

Oh, perhaps.....

I think if pushed I'd put John as more of a Fred Elliot ? ( Corrie), ;-)

and me? I'm more like Laura Thyme from 'Rosemary and Thyme' lol, sensible shoes, hair scragged back for gardening, and likes to investigate ;-)

Fred? I heard that, Rose. I say, I heard that.

I used to think I looked very much like Ronald Allen. He was editor in Compact, David Hunter in Crossroads and, despite his very average looks, managed to eventually get married in real life to gorgeous Sue Lloyd.

I was conducting a class about 15 years ago. I overheard two of the girls talking during a break. "He's quite nice, but isn't he like Fred Elliott off Corrie" :-D :-D
