The Guess Who Has Aged Thread

[Stealthracer]

I've not read a newspaper for years, but when I did I was consistently seeing this and similar soap drivel, being reported on as if it were actual news.. So it is a little difficult to avoid.

[Whats on Second]

like being played a track from neil young on Only Connect or Uni Challenge and open mouthed youngsters saying " before my time ", that don't wash with anyone, ignorance of popular culture is reprehensible and miscreants should be forced to watch lotsa episodes of sale of the century [ from norwich natch ]

I really dislike those shoes where the toes peep out like that. I'd have sent her home to get changed because she's otherwise most acceptable.

Well, I've mostly been overseas for the last 20 years, and also I haven't watched any TV at all in the last few years. So I genuinely had no idea who that fellow was.

I've similarly been overseas for some time and haven't watched TV for years, but even an ignoramus like me knows who *Ken* is.

I don't feel as if not being aware of this chap has in any way compromised my life.

Me either - I had no idea who he was

I'd be the same with anything post 2000.
Apart from Rosie Webster, obviously.
