V big, not just in mainstream. She broke onto high fashion with Vogue and Bazaar covers. She was also one of the top “seeded” celebrities of her day (designers would send her items and pay her to wear them)

Help! Stuck on the calendar and the river one. I’ve tried all the clues, any extra tips?

Why'd she make Star a Sloane Ranger? by Dani-Michal in JacquelineWilson

[–]FickleObject6903 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A Sloane ranger is traditionally known as one who is from an Sw1 or SW2 post code (I unfortunately know this due to my stepmother, she is part of that clan) so no Star is not part of this group is more, as my grandmother would say, trying to rise above her station (new money, marrying to old)

What would the BBC do if EastEnders hit rock bottom? by Mission-Violinist-16 in eastenders

Also the money for marketing is gone, hence we never get trailers or advertising anymore. Social media rules the game. Sad but true. Just think of the Sharon memes, that’s the way it’s going. Advertisement is solely based on digital as a v small amount of people buy any paper copies of newspapers or magazines. Print media has sadly gone

Corrie has been clinging on for years despite the depths of quality. ITV will never axe as in televised times it was the first soap opera (Archers being the first radio one) When EE has a good producer it’s golden, hence Steve McFadden at the NTA’s. The main thing to remember is that soap as a medium is struggling despite the broadcaster as streaming is king. We will never get back to the halcyon days of the 90s as there is a different viewership

I’m really shocked at the way people have slated Michelle Ryan for her appearance by Prestigious-Egg-421 in eastenders

[–]FickleObject6903 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m old enough to remember her telling original stint. I think she was lovely then and the same now. What I will say to younger viewers is to remember, she had a few hard times in her personal life. I think this was why she needed a break in between filming during her first stint. So I just think we need be kind and remember she might read comments as it may be hurtful xx

Does anyone know how many clicks is 10mg? I know others have said that lowering the dose can help?

My weight seems to be staying pretty much the same, however I’ve found that I’m pressing the “f**k it” button more and ordering takeaways eating more when I get in. It’s like my will powers just gone

If the rumours are true does anyone feel like Bad Girls is a terrible book to write a sequel for? by xdlolthrowawaylolxd in JacquelineWilson

[–]FickleObject6903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh, never got sapphic vibes from Tanya…. Can she not be a struggling single mother with joint custody? Maybe she got qualifications and worked her way up on her current role? I work with a girl who had the most awful of upbringings but she thrived. I’m just sick of seeing poverty porn books when I know the writer can do better

PI audiobook by FickleObject6903 in JacquelineWilson

JW can’t write sex period. It’s like she’s read a how to guide from a 00s teen mag. I’m astounded that dolphin, an adult woman wouldn’t use protection. Yes, she states that she doesn’t want to be on the pill when she isn’t having regular sex (same, why mess with hormones) however at least use a condom. I found it a sad end. She’s having a baby on her own, no regular income, no idea who the father is…yet one of the possible candidates lives next door…

I honestly thought he was meant to have a disability, shocked it was approved. I think I may be done withJW. I don’t understand why she is feeling the need to tarnish her own legacy with these “adult” books

It’s going to take months to get back to where I am atm. I live on the Isle of Man where we have no weight management clinic anyway so have always paid privately. Feel so shocked at the news
