As soon as women work out how to get the tops off of jars, men are doomed as a species.

Twiggy's mum used to make our birthday parties in North west London (Hendon) when I was a child... and Twiggy used to come along and not look very happy about it!! She could only have been about 9 or 10 then...

Twiggy looks fantastic, I see she is to promote beauty creams, all the creams in the world will not turn back the clock, its just a waste of money. I could never be without my man, who would wash the dishes??

I would have loved to have been in the one show prodution meeting where someone said "Right I've got a great idea.You know haircuts right everyone loves them and you know caves everyone loves them too.So why not combine the both and have haircuts in a cave".

Re 5: Twiggy is one of those people who seems ageless and just gets more beautiful as the years go on. She looked wonderful in the 60s but I think she looks even better now, and she's only 2 months away from 60! She has always been so nice to listen to when interviewed also.
Re the first item: Could women do without men? Absolutely not! And could men do without women? Absolutely not!

geordieangel2, I will buy you a dishwasher,lol. Actually I quite like men in a sad and baffled sort of way, it's like having a large floppy dog around. Never actually accomplishes anything, but gives pleasure along the way!

It's safe to say I won't get another opportunity, so I'll take it now in advance of the occasion:
Happy Birthday, Twiggy! May you have many more long & happy years ahead of you.

Re 6: Gaz911 - Haha! Yes, indeed - the focus group excelled with that idea! I think there's a series in there somewhere... And you got another message (re Adrian's shorts) read out on the latest Web Show I see.

Well I would like to congratulate Adrian on his true, probing question to Twiggy which was, "Why is she the only ONE gainfully employed at her age?" She looked shocked and fobed the question off! As this is very true what Adrian said! I too am a well known model(15 years younger than Twiggy)and am advocating & modelling Real Beauty (not plastic surgery)for the mature woman / model out there, but have not managed to get any work this year, even though I too am well know and have a huge fan base for my modelling /acting / poetry work. Yet I remain unemployed and penniless! Well Done Adrian for saying it as it is! I am Your Number "One" Fan! With Luv, Light and Liberty Donna Africa www.donnaafrica.co.uk

hokeykokeyalex post 4, but what if your local fire officer got the call to rescue a pigeon, and told he was to be on telly as well, I'll bet they wouldn't normally turn out for a bird in distress. I was at the vets with my dog, a woman came in with a sea gull, the vet told her to take it to the R.S.P.C.A. she already had, R.S.P.C.A. told her to take it to a vet, no one wanted it, but if they know its to be on TV, they will go all out even for a tiny sparrow,

So I beat you
One Show
My yesterdays versified blog offering
Cleverly predicted a new One Show controversy
In the offing
A day early
I.e. heralding
The redundancy
Of men, including Adrian
God forbid
But seeing as God is female these days
Maybe forbid She wont on this occasion
So, seriously or otherwise
Do men still have a place
In todays womens world of ours
Now theyve thrown off their bras
Talking of which.
I for one couldnt wait
To see model guest Twiggy
Who despite putting on a bit of weight
Was looking really great at sixty
Clad all in beautiful deep blue
She was far from sad-and-blue
But was definitely bloo-ming
Fashion should be fun she said
And according to Christine
She could pull off anything
(But she stayed fully clothed
For the whole of the programme)
Back to the plot
Debate
Reasons for men
As per The One Show offices ideas board list
(Yes apparently they do have one!)
The board read, in order:
Men
1. Very practical
2. Deep thinkers / not as emotional
3. Better at dealing with dead things and on recollection
4. Rubbish collection
5. Mowing the lawn
6. Chucking spiders out
7. Loading the dishwasher / D W skills
8. Making money (for their wills)
9. Paying for diamond jewellery
10. Taxi duty
11. Something to moan about
Do I detect the hand
Of Christine in the above
Did Adrian not get a say /
Manage a word in edgeways
I know what he would say
That day to day
The One Show wouldnt be balanced
Without his gruff male presenting presence
For pretty, giggly female Cheese cake
Christine to bounce off
Following the recent Camberwell tragedy
Timely lessons in Fire safety
For us all
So we were taught
PDE
Prevention, detection, escape
More Tiggywinkles
Is Mike now selling a dead horse
Of course
Not
There is yet more mileage
In the caring for
Our poor sickly friends
With paws.
Rogue Traders
And their behaviour
This has been done
To death though on TV aleady
On BBC One
Don
Clever Michael Douglas
Good for him
Giving Gaping Gill cavers
The deepest darkest and coldest trim
Ever
The Beehive, the Bob the Pixie for her
The Beatles mop-top, the French line, the Perin (/Perm?) for him
So was there a common thread
Running through the programme this time
For us to get our teeth in
Yes possibly I think so
Perhaps the difference between men and women
And I as man am with the men
On this One

Loved todays show :) what really made me giggle was Christines attempt to lift up Adrian. Two feet were off the ground it can be said, which surprised my family and I. Well done Christine! Love you guys, keep it up! x

I just watched this again on the iplayer as I missed the begining first time round and I loved christine's impression of a tiger at about 1 mins 20secs in.

Terribly clumsy if not thoughtless link from trivial item to the horror of the tower block fire. then back to another lightweight item. I am sure balance is needed but presenters facial expressions going from happy to sad in a split second so wrong editorially. Does no one think of elementary presentation rules?
