Sorry to all of you ladies, but........

Many years ago the title of this thread was attributed to Joan Bakewell.

Who would you consider to be the current holder of this title?

Here's mine - even with what looks like botox treatment:

Carol Vorderman. mmmm, mmmmm, mmmm:help:

Sorry Nigella:naughty:

It's always been vorderman! She's a given as the thinking mans crumpet
 
Sorry, but Vorderman is nothing more than a Ford Cortina with a decent paint job!

Now, someone such as Imogen Poots....

:love:
 
I find myself thinking about an afternoon in the kitchen baking muffins with that Kirsty Allsopp. The wife says she has a moustache but I can't see it.
 
Ms Vordermans successor is very pleasant, Rachel Riley I believe is the young lady's name

Erm, it's Thinking Man's Crumpet Joe so yes, it's the man who should be thinking.

You're taking that too literally. The thinking man part is an adjective ( is that the right term?) as in it describes the crumpet.

Much like "poor man's" car or "schoolboy error" you don't actually have to be poor to own the car, it's just in reference to the equivalent cheaper version of an expensive car and you don't have to be a school boy to make the error.

Anyway this is getting a bit ridiculous now, and we should be talking about the crumpet not the grammar!

It's thinking man's crumpet so a possessive, not an adjective but I'm not going to argue with you anymore Joe. ;)
 
Doc Roberts for sure, but might I also put forward Julia Bradbury for your consideration?

Mz Vorderman lost all respect when she did those purple loans adverts, and from recent appearances on caterwaulin (sorry loose) women her looks are not what they once were either (neither are mine but I never was totty ;) )
 
Vorderman lost all credibility when she started advertising loans for people who shouldn't have loans on daytime TV.
