It’s Round 2, and it’s SUDDEN DEATH, or something.

Dec 06, 2007 12:14

We're now, at long sodding last, into Round 2 of Lovely of the Year 2007. 40 contestants slugged it out over 80 groups, with only 16 progressing. Despite repeated claims to the contrary, they're not joined in the second round by any highest-scoring runners up, because I couldn't be bothered counting the votes and it would only mean more ( Read more... )

1. Fry - he may not give vast quantities of wealth away, but he IS jolly lovely.
2. Forrester - Brooker wrote the Nathan Barley series which was/were sh*t (so bad I didn't notice if there was a 2nd one). Although TV Go Home was good.
3. wardytron - otherwise I'd have married Baker.
4. Cocker - Harding's just an orange-faced drunk tart. (Shut up - I don't have an orange face.)
5. James Ward - I have no idea who Kate Jackson is. And James Ward coined the phrases "Ay ole Gron", and "what about then eh?".
6. Smeaton - this was FAR too tough because I'd love to get into Clooney's Superman pants. But Clooney doesn't go running up to flaming (meant in the literal sense, but the Australian (non)sense) would-be terrorists with bombs to catch them and bring them to JUSTICE.
7. Clement - because he had a hand in writing this song, and Snow didn't.

Jemaine talking -
So, you're leaving. You say you have to go.
Well if you have to go then, I suppose you have to go,
That's what it means, doesn't it, to have to go.
It means you have to go.

But if you're tryin' to break my heart,
Your plan is flawed from the start.
You can't break my heart, it's liquid,
It melted when I met you.

But as you walk down that path that leads from the door,
Don't turn around to see me once more.
Don't turn around to see if I'm crying.
(whispers) I'm not crying, not crying, not crying.

Jemaine singing -
I'm not crying.
It's just been raining,
On my face.
And if you think you see the tear tracks down my cheeks,
Then please, please, please,
Don't tell my mates.
These aren't tears of sadness because you're leaving me,
I've just been cutting onions.
I'm just making a lasagne.
For one.
I'm not crying, noooo-ho-ho-ho.

Both singing -
There's just a little bit of dust in my eye
Just from the path that you made when you said your goodbye.
I'm not weeping cause you won't be here to hold my hand,
For your information there's an inflammation in my tear-gland.
I'm not upset because you left me this way,
My eyes are just a little sweaty today.
They've been looking around a lot, searching for you,
They've been looking for you,
Even though I told them not to.

Jemaine singing -
These aren't tears of sadness, they're tears of joy,
I am laughing!
Haa haa haa haa, ha ha ha ha.

I'm sitting at this table called love
Staring down at the irony of life.
How come we've reached this fork in the road,
And yet it cuts like a knife.

But I'm not crying
I've just been cutting onions,
In the rain,
With my inflamed eye.
(whispered) Big boys don't cry.

8. rhodri, because his response last time scared me.

I didn't know you read this Livejournal, how long have you been doing that?

I don't, I despise you and everything you stand for. Which is public nudity, basically.

Weird abberation it may be, but it sticks in my mind like an eternal nightmare.

Oh no - I love The Day Today and Brass Eye. But Nathan Barley sticks in my craw. And The Lovely Philippa Forrester has nurtured baby creatures back to health.

I don't much like Brass Eye either, to be honest. I've got the DVD but never watch it. Chris Morris is great in the IT Crowd, but that's because Graham Linehan writes it. I really liked TV Go Home though. Anyway we're not particularly fans of Charlie Brooker, or Prince, but it doesn't really matter, does it.

Oh stop being so condescending Ed. I didn't like Nathan Barley, so I voted for The Lovely Philippa Forrester. The End.

My basic strategy is to instil fear into everyone on wardytron's friends list.

And, of course, to lose to wardytron so often at Scrabble that he just awards the thing to me out of pity. Although I did beat him last time. But I'm currently 280-419 down.
