On the one hand, it is OT. On the other, what a stupid, deluded c**t. I saw a tweet that Sky News blamed the Nice attack on Brexit. FFS!

Her tweets were getting on my tits so I unfollowed her about four days after the Brexit vote. Typical "I voted in so therefore I'm right" tweets were doing my head in

Social media has been dreadful for this country. Incredibly divisive, for no good reason. It achieves nothing, just rots the brain.

From her Twitter account, she does seem totally unhinged, though.

Just had a quick look at her account :shock: :shock: :shock:

She always got on my tits a bit anyway because I thought she came across as a drama queen but her Twitter! Whoa!!! Seems I underestimated her.

British actors and TV personalities are - in my experience - the most shallow and naive when it comes to social commentary, political or historical awareness. Just look at people like Carol Voldemort and Noel Edmonster

I've met quite a few actors over the years. Insecure, needy and unhinged was my general impression.

Got it in one...well, three. I have, however, always been very comfortable with being me because I never take myself seriously or took Bond seriously... :wink:

One of the worst voices ever. Proper grating. I'd rather listen to shovels on concrete paving.
