that benedicty sherlock holmes bloke has got eyes like a wolf

i was going to say 'husky eyes'

but that would sound like i fancied him

He's hot.

Hmmm i'm allowed to watch this tonight - but i still think i will be watching the Live eviction show instead. I'm assuming it will get a repeat over the next few days anyway.

Hot as in looks?

Hot as in a great actress?

I don't think she is anything special in the looks dept. Also never seen her act.

But hey, whatever floats your boat.

Now you say it he really does. Maybe that's why I never took to him as Sherlock, despite trying.

I always thought Jane Mansfield was grossly overlooked

Rachel Laferve from TWILGHT- lovely, lovely lady

Milla Jovovich....sexiest woman in the world

A bit of both!

I had not heard of her before reading about Parade's End in the telly guide - so the thread title was somewhat ironic. However, i notice that she has just made the film Silent Hill 2 starring opposite Sean Bean so maybe she could be the next big thing.

Overlooked but not overdressed!

Well, we can know one thing about Silent Hill 2 - Sean Bean will die, he usually does.

Karina Lombard - sophisticated bombshell

Now, dont make me get out the pictures of Kelly Brook or Gillian Anderson, I'd put you all away.

Unintentional or not, Clemens’s pursuit of turning acting into a serious career is nothing if not impressive. While filming Vampire, she read the script for Parade’s End, the forthcoming miniseries on HBO adapted by playwright Tom Stoppard. “I knew I just had to do this. And, literally, I’m filming this horror film, and the whole time I’m thinking about Parade’s End,” she says. Although she was initially rejected for the role of spirited suffragette Valentine Wannop,

Clemens did not quit. As soon as filming wrapped on Vampire, she flew to London and begged director Susanna White for 15 minutes of her time. White agreed, and Clemens showed up to the audition in Edwardian costume. Fifteen minutes turned into three hours, which included line readings with Stoppard himself—until he abruptly ended the session and walked out. “I walked home bawling my eyes out, in full period dress,” she recalls. “The day before I leave, I get a call that they want me to do another reading. I was like, ‘What? Do you want me in the outfit?’ And then I got the job.”

I've not read the book so i cannot gauge as to whether they are capturing the tone faithfully or not. During the making-of show that followed episode one on Friday night reference was made to Blackadder Goes Forth.

That first pic really looks like actress Michelle Williams!

I need to catch up with Parade's End. Watched the eviction instead on Friday.

Ford Madox Ford doc on BBC2 now.

Why did a 41-year old half-German writer volunteer for the Western front?

I did notice Tom Stoppard during the Ford Madox Ford documentary tonight emphasising the point that Parade's End is a comedy.
