Passing comments

[dit]

A thread for comments made on other TV programmes.

Number 1: Have I got News For You repeat, Dave.

Alexander Armstrong as host, passing comment on Jeremy getting into trouble with Romanians for wearing a small hat in the Romania episode,

"...though to be fair, the locals thought James May was his wife and tried to steal Richard Hammond"

[devil-may-care]

I remember that episode! ;D Loved it!! ;D ;D

I got a Top Gear wall calendar. It is very high quality. January is about the Mobile Home challenge. Love the picture of James laughing his head off at Jeremy weaving in front of him. Each month is centered around a different challenge. And it has a centerfold.

I bought the desk version of the calendar for work. people think i'm odd to have a fetish for James May. He's on my monitor. Well you need something nice to look at to get through the day!!!

[Vivienne]

I have him on my monitor also.

Do your work chums think you're weird?
They just laughed at me....

I have 3 pics of James on my work monitor and a TG wall calendar behind the desk. I suspect that whoever I had pics of, they'd take the piss out of me but at least one other (male) person in the office likes TG, so I don't really mind.

They all love Top Gear, but cannot get my obsession with James May. The other girls have pictures of Jonny Depp, Daniel Craig, David Beckham etc and then there's me... with my captain slow. ha ha. I can see their point but I just happen to think that James May is gorgeous, I cannot see why nobody else can see it. He's a dish!!!!

When I was teaching I had a picture of the TG3 on my computer rather than one of James alone. It was this one from Deviantart (sorry it's quite small; it was that or a huge version as I can't resize at present).



As one of my computers was in the room where I marked my register and the other was in my office next to the studio where students were wandering in and out all day, I reckoned that I might just get away with the TG3. As it was, all the kids were really enthusiastic when they saw it, as in "Hey Miss, do you like Top Gear?" but I might not have got the same response if it had been James on his own (or to be fair, any of them, really).

I have a collection of pictures of James and I on my desk at work, we had a couple of new people start last year and they thought he was my husband!!!! I didn't like to protest ;D

That must have been a good feeling while it lasted, jacqui!

When I got my new phone last February, my neighbor asked to see it. She looked at for a few moments then passed it back. She said, "You know, most women have a picture of their husband as their wallpaper."
I just smiled.

It was!! Still makes me smile when they talk about it!!!


Now why would you want your hubby as wallpaper honestly!!! ;D

I have James as the wall paper on my phone. The last time at I was the tattoo parlor my tattooist saw it and said "Is that your dad? Or your brother?" I just laughed.

I have a digital frame next to where I sit in the living room. It has quite a few pics of James on it. Last week my friend was over and where she was sitting she could see the frame while she was looking at me. I noticed her looking at the frame and she said to me "Do you have any pictures of your husband on there or just the guy you're obsessed with? She was quite amused.

I had the Inteceptors as a tiled wallpaper on my work machine and I swap between the bad boy with the cigarette pic from high voltage and the biker stubble at home.
