I can't wait for the ABC to start showing Absolute Power.

I think trying to make Tim less cuddly is something not even Charles Prentiss in full devious mode could achieve. 

Alright, so Timbo's old enough to be my grandfather, that doesn't stop him from being an absolute darling of whom I am a great fanatic. In fact, that applies for a lot of my favourites. Nobody I know is to know that, or I'll appear a total creep.

I spent the last hour or so watching Willy Wonka, the original one. Loved Tim's bit in it. "I'm now telling the computer just where it can stick it's lifetime's supply of chocolate!" It was one of the best scenes, though I do rather like Gene Wilder as well.

Just watched a lovely little clip posted on YouTube, from Tim's appearance in Absolute Power. What on earth were they thinking, trying to make him less cuddly? Don't be mean! And "Britain's most shaggible guy?" C'mon, fess up, which one of you wrote that for him?

Hmm well 34 and 36 aren't too bad, considering I'm turning 30 myself next month.
Course I'm happily de-factoed myself.
But you know what they say, it's always good to keep your options open 

I think Ben Brooke-Taylor is 36 now and his brother Ed(ward) is 34, or thereabouts.
Sorry, they're both happily married!

Calling British Timbo fans!

Tim will be on a BBC4 show called 'Never Mind the Full Stops' on Thursday 18th May at 10.30pm. It's a comedy panel show about language, hosted by Julian Fellows. Tim will be guesting alongside John Sargeant, Nina Wadia and Rod Liddle.

Should be good!

Jess.

38 or 39?  Oh dear. Even Tim's sons are too old for me. Let alone Tim himself.
Ah well.
Oh and bondgirl, Trent would probably give me away to Tim or his sons (or anyone else) quite willingly. hahahahaha

AC : ' I'm sure Timbo would LOVE it if he came across this thread. hahahahahaha. Look at him, he still has that cheeky sparkle in his eyes even after all these years. He's lovin it baby!!

Cheeky is a very good description

AC : 'Jodes I love your description of what happened with Gray-boots. hahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahaha!

Ha ha !  They were sprung like springs!!!

AC : ' As for what their kids would think if they stumbled across a thread like this.........well just imagine how you would feel if you came across a thread with a bunch of people describing one of your parents as sexy.  EEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! IIIICCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!

I'll have you know that MY parents were never romantically linked in anyway whatsoever  and are completely asexual which means I was an immaculate consception (and therefor a gift from God - a non refundable one) 

  '

AC : ' I assume Ben is Tim's son then? Striking resemblence you say? hmmmmmm.  Anyone know how old he is?  I think he might be around the right age for me actually

Hahaha...I'm gonna tell Trent on you - you saucy little gibbon 

I'd think Ben (short for Benedict - isnt' that lovely?) must be around 38 -39, and his brother about two years younger.

I'm sure Timbo would LOVE it if he came across this thread. hahahahahaha. Look at him, he still has that cheeky sparkle in his eyes even after all these years. He's lovin it baby!!

A few years ago I came across a picture of Ben Brooke-Taylor on the net.  The resemblance is striking, he just has slightly darker hair!
