He'd make the perfect Prince Charming, and it would mean that he wouldn't have to dress up to the same extent that he did before.
If he was Prince Charming i'd want to be Cinderella, but then again so would most of us on this forum!
Id be u r understudy!!!! I did Drama u know, Im quite a little actress at heart!
Evenin Folks!!!
OOOhhhhh how fabulous!!
Look at me, Im melting, melting, you've destroyed all my beautiful wickedness!!
I'm staying safe away from other topics. As the only bloke on here, i'm happy to come on and give my opinions without any arguments and upsetting people.
I wish Paul all the best when he comes back in September.
At the end of the day, you could have R&J on all the year. Then there will be compliants.
Hey Ian , I spent most of my day tryin to bump other topics so "that one " will be lost but as soon as people come on they have to air their opinions and it comes to the top again ! I know I,ts childish but I might just do what they do on BB and just "bump " every topic to get rid of it !!!!!

That's cool! Nice to know there are others on here who also love the stage (apart from Jane ofcourse). I just love acting. I was in productions all the way through school, so that's why i chose to study drama at University.
Only trouble was, that apart from my year abroad, there was only one module in my whole degree where i got to get on the stage! All the rest was boring essays and presentations!
Originally posted by ak luvs pog & olga: Hi Ian, thanks also to you for livening up the forum again!
I have to say I agree with you 100%!
Yeah we did it POG fans, 1 week down, 10 to go.
Me livening up the forum lol i don't know about that Andria but thanks.
One things for sure i refuse to go on another topic that has got absolutely stupid since it was posted. I knew it would, and has seen people come on here who haven't bothered since March throughout 12 weeks of the series.
To be honest, i come on here for the enjoyment and fun of reading the replies. I can understand people that disagree, fair enough, but this has turned into nasty replies and has caused problems.
I met some nice people at the last show as i have said before. Anyone who posts a reply after me, please please please don't post anything which could end up as two topics on the same level.
The last thing i will mention, i have a topic up about the forum kept open when Paul is off air. If it turned too nasty with people i wouldn't be surprised if it did close down.
I feel sorry for Paul, the crew, and even the guests who are viewing. They must read all this now and think, the series has ended and now the battle.
The return of Richard and Judy has created an unexpected ratings headache for Channel 4. Last night's edition of the show, which returned this week to its 5pm slot after six months of being replaced by Paul O'Grady, attracted 1.7 million viewers, exactly the figure it attracted on its heavily trailed return on Monday, according to the unofficial overnights.
O'Grady regularly pulled in around 2.5 million viewers for his show, and a share of 20% or more. Richard and Judy's share last night was 14% between 5pm and 6pm despite relatively easy competition.
Nice to know there are others on here who also love the stage (apart from Jane ofcourse).
That's me hun...i love being on stage and getting all that applause from the audience - it's such a great feeling.

Well that's good news. Is it safe to come on here now. I hope so. I've kept out of the way and pleased i have.
I'm never get too personally involved. A few weeks ago with a couple of people on here that accused me of lying yes. When it comes to arguments or nasty comments i stay well away if i see danger. I was right on my post though about things turning nasty. I've seen it before with other forums.
Well i hope things are going to stop now as i haven't enjoyed what has been going on the past few days. It's a shame really.
Oh well, i better go now. Have a good night and speak soon.

Just back quickley to say Jen, i read your last reply on the topic which has caused problems.
The answer on the last sentance is i would if i were you.
I haven't changed my mind about people i met at the show as it's not me, it's stupid. I do think though you should go ahead with what you suggested. All the points have been made and sadly not all happy ones.
You don't have to reply to this if you don't want to.
Hi Ian, thanks. Shame it got so out of hand, it was meant to be a question open to debate and some of the posts on it were well written and sensible. But I think in future, any negative posts should be avoided on here. It's too easy to lose your temper on here as without facial expressions etc people can take things the wrong way. I've made the request for removal, we'll see what happens. You watch, it'll be the one that doesn't get deleted!

Hi Jane. Thought it was you!
I knew about your recent show before i went to POG's show, and before i joined the forum. It's dance you do isn't it? I used to go to ballet school when i was really small but it just didn't seem to suit me.
We had to take part in Drama productions when i was at school though, so i guess acting is just something that i've taken to well.
I'm just annoyed cos GCSE Drama was only offered at my school the year after i did mine, and the A - Level wasn't available either.
Yes hun...i have just been involved in a big dance show (last weekend) i do jazz and tap dancing.

When i requested my post to be deleted. I reported my opening post and typed the reasons for deletion. This way it was better rather than typing an email to the address at the top of the main screen.
It's about time someone at last requested that post going. It wasn't going to be me. I refused to post on there when i saw it was turning nasty. I'm sure Mrs Paul o' Grady doesn't blame people for not posting on there after a while.
From experience of dealing with Channe4 and posting on here since April, i have seen various changes and disagreements, but nothing like this though. Most of Pauls shows were excellent, those that maybe were not slightly up to the usual standard i never post a reply on. Why!!! because arguments happen and it gets so stupid.
If this forum got too much into the politics of this and that, i wouldn't be on here. Thanks Jen for replying ok. You didn't have to as i said. I'm pleased at least i never posted further on that topic.
It would be nice if Stephanie (Mrs Paul O' Grady) posted a reply on my topic of her views about people like me, not wanting to post on there. Hopefully no hard feelings as well.
The last thing i will say is worst things happen in life.
If you want my own personal opinions of Pauls shows etc read on.
He seemed much more relaxed and comfortable on Channel 4. This proved it when he was a bit choked at the end of his birthday show with all the letters etc. I really love the shows and think Paul is just a true legend. He speaks his mind, looks after animals, brings on owners of stolen pets, has homeless dogs on the show, gives out surprises to people in the audience and is an all round entertainer. I don't watch the show always for the guests and whats on. I watch it as its Paul and he is brilliant.
Ok he may kick off sometimes, that's life, but from all what i said, i can't think of many people that do who what he does with his work.
As being the only bloke who comes on here now, that is my opinion of Paul who has more true fans than any of us could imagine.

Six months? They could have got their facts right, lol
Just before i go. There are two things, firsty it's a shame that people who haven't been on here all through the series have come back and problems have begun. Let's hope they can be sorted asap.
The other thing is the stars and the amount of times people have posted which is at the very bottom of each reply. There are some replies on the other topic where the number of post replies are nowhere as popular as the regulars on here.
That is my opinion for a change on what has been an unhappy few days.
Before anyone gets the wrong idea again and thinks this is a post to cause trouble, IT ISN'T. None of my posts have actually, but they just seem to have been taken the wrong way.
The reason everyone who's 'appeared' in the last few days have posted on here for ages is because of the fact you can't have a proper adult conversation without it turning into an "Oh I love Paul so much" type thread with pointless comments a-la my examples. I just pointed this fact out, and suddenly a whole argument erupted from no one.
I didn't mean to cause trouble in anyway, and was just pointing out the reason we hadn't been on.
I don't want this to turn nasty again, however/why ever it happened before, so I'll zip it.
Well we have all said our bit so we'll leave it there.
No more please on my topic relating to others now. Thanks
Back to normal.....i may have news in August time when Paul finishes. I think there may be a reason he is starting earlier than we thought. Maybe he could be doing pantomime or simply it's a decision made by Channel 4 or someone.
At least he will be back in September with more fun and excitment through the Autumn and Winter.
When i gave the Birthday topic in at the last show, i did include my email address. If i receive any reply from anyone i'll let you all know.
I would love it if Paul was doing Panto!! But i'm not so sure he will but you never know he is full of surprises.

Originally posted by sexyspecs: I would love Paul to do another panto...i would 100% defo travel to wherever it's on.
Me to. But I would love to see Paul on for Christmas with the POG show. I thik the 3rd series started on the 15th of September last year so this year it is a week earlier.
I forgot he started mid September last year. I thought it was towards the end.
There is a website which gives details of every show. Unfortunately i can't post it on here, but i will check if the transmission dates are on there as well. I'm pretty sure they are.
