Just noticed Prof. Roberts is on Celebrity Mastermind this evening. You'd be a bit cheesed off if you turned up to have a go on that and found an honest-to-god professor sitting in the next chair. Doesn't exactly seem fair..

Yes but I do not think that they are allowed to use their specialty as their subject. So that evens things up with the obsessive amateurs.

We haven't actually had any Christina for quite some time. I sense she may be getting impatient with us...

'It's a midsummer evening. They've been to the theatre to see a comedy, a good one as it turned out. She laughed and when she laughed she hung onto his arm so now there's a faint smell of her perfume on his jacket. Then dinner at a fashionable restaurant. They talk as they eat. She is animated, waving her hands, her eyes wide. He listens intently, sometimes nodding, sometimes making jokes at her expense. His jokes are clever and she finds herself agreeing with him even though. The bill is ludicrous but he pays it without blinking, even though it's more than he normally spends on food in a month. He can figure it out later. As they leave he guides her in front, one hand placed softly in the small of her back. He stops to chat to the waitress who has served them. She's young and pretty. He stays for a moment too long. As he walks out of the front door she is stood by his car. The summer dusk light paints her over, lighting up her hair and accentuating the fit of her dress. She's got her hands on her hips and she's grinding the stiletto heel of one of her sandals into the ground, turning it back and forth. Her eyes are ablaze with anger but the shadow of a smile gives away what she's actually thinking. She wants him to know he's been caught. She wants him to know he can't get away with everything. She wants him to know she's a much better catch than some waitress and she should have his undivided attention. She wants him to know it matters enough for her to be angry. She wants him to be enough of a gentleman to acknowledge he's been caught but she wants him to have enough confidence not to put up with too much of her [LIFTED]. He walks towards her, his best 'sheepish schoolboy' look on his face and his hands in his pockets. As she opens her mouth to speak, the loud 'clunk' and flashing lights of the car's remote unlock cuts her off...' - excerpt from the forthcoming novel '50 shades of Redhead'. It's amazing what a picture can inspire isn't it? Apparently in this case combined with raging insomnia it inspires Christina Hendricks fan fiction. Dear God

As I understand it, you continually update that on Fadbook before releasing the Kindle edition

Bryce Dallas Howard - I saw her last night in "The Village" and she was incredibly pretty. Struggling to find a decent picture that does her justice.

Bryce Dallas Howard looked pretty hot in Twilight:Eclipse  And wasn't The Village a rotten movie?

I was thinking if there were any other read heads associated with Star Trek, apart from the obvious: However, of course, with out this particular redhead lady, Star Trek may not have survived past season 1.

It wasn't a good movie, but she was great in it. I like it when she's made up more naturally and with bouncy hair

The lovely Prof. Roberts is on BBC2 at 9PM, in a show called something like 'How to avoid Catching a Winter Virus'.
Bit late for some of us <sniff><cough>
