I agree - I don't think I saw Jeremy driving with a beardy bloke in any of the photos. Perhaps the beard was metaphorical, as he is a serious member of the car enthusiast scene Jeremy so gleefully mocks... |

Guess the idea of this being a big two-parter for the end of the series was scrapped - and perhaps hastily, I'm guessing, going on the editing. Still really enjoyed the film, but it seemed to feel like the Readers Digest of what it was meant to be... :-\

Aaahhhhhhh! She got a May!Hug!
(It took me a while to realise this but you see in the backgroud of the photo - the pic of Richard? That's a cross-stitch version of himself that someone sent him. LOL!)

You lucky woman - that photograph's gorgeous!
I laughed inappropriately at the auction and hard at the Carla Bruni 'translation'.

Awwww, that photo is adorable. You know, I really think she had developed a little thing for him. In the studio when they hugged she looked a little unsure what to do afterwards. Bless her, and who can blame her. |

As for Madison, I reckon she was putting it on a FAIR bit for the cameras (ie that bloody hat & the flower in the helmet). But I really liked what she was wearing at the end of the show. Like you said, nice to see the contrast. |

So true Jacqui, we all dream of how we'd react but in reality if you're anything like me then you'd be a jibbering wreak. Sometimes I think it would be better for me never to meet James, I hate him to remember me as a jibbering fool.

Who would know what to do lets be honest I know if I was ever to be that lucky, I wouldn't know what to do afterwards either. It's one of those things we all want so much, but when presented with it, we freeze in our tracks. God, I sound like such a hopeless romantic. All I can say is, I'm very happy for her. I hope she knows how lucky she really is. |

Lord. There's already rumours about Mr May and Ms Welch on internet sites (and in my head). Suggestions that they are dating etc. You read it here first, nearly. ;D Well he has been looking rather dashing lately. We'll have to see if he starts looking shagged out. ;D ;D |
