romantic period dramas also being a catherine cookson fan.

Aah, for a moment there I thought it was a thread about the boy band Busted-alikes (before Busted were even a glimmer in a record executive's eye), North and South. They even had their own TV show - 'No Sweat', and this was all only in about 1998 or so, but one of the members was on Never Mind the Buzzcocks 'guess who' round, and he looked about 40! And all bedraggled and grimy tracksuit wearing! I was really distraught actually :shocked: :cry:

The guy with the spikey hair from North and South has an admin job in my mates office. Still living the dream I see then.....

That's really depressing actually...

Just like their 'music' :)

No way!

"I'm a man not a boy, a man not a boy, a man not a bo-oy (woooaaah yeah!)"

or

"Who do you think you are, Tarantino's new star, is that whoooooo you are?"

or

"Na na na na na na na na na, aaaaaaaaaaah NO SWEAT!"

:loopy: Are you mad Woman

I remember the songs, terrible :P

...oh dear I rememebr all of those. Didnt the singer guy looked like he should have been on a youth scheme on a building site?

This was their TV show:

Them were't deys....

This has nothing to do with original post.

Breathing was by far the best North and South song.

I have all the singles.

Yes, I'm that sad.

I honestly don't think that is something you should really admit too :help:

Fifteen Sts

I remember Sean Bean's mom defending him at the time it was shown saying " Our Seans not a bit like that" prob because he was playing a nasty.

That's the badger! I particularly like the Heavy Breathing Techno Remix.

cheers for that hazel, stopped me from being totally ignored.
I dont remember that boy band but my eleven year old son is a keen busted fan.
No doubt he will be dragging me along to one of their gigs in the near future.(help).

I'm getting used to being ignored it comes with old age, reach 60 and you become invisible.

Sorry it's off the thread, perhaps I should start a new one
