Katek Thu 15-Jan-15 09:42:15

Hahaha! grin grin it sure ain't me given my present state of health!

Mishap Thu 15-Jan-15 09:57:30

Which game is that? - bowls?

Katek Thu 15-Jan-15 10:00:34

Is that a euphemism, Mishap? grin

rosequartz Thu 15-Jan-15 10:05:17

I don't think anyone would want me to 'escort' them!

Anne58 Thu 15-Jan-15 10:10:10

I think this programme might be a repeat. I remember watching something of the same title a few months back.

glammanana Thu 15-Jan-15 10:23:01

phoenix I think you're right the one I saw was about a lady who lived on her own and conducted most of the interview in a black lacy number whilst waiting for her "client" to arrive, was this the same one you saw.?

Anne58 Thu 15-Jan-15 10:48:31

I think so glamma. I seem to remember the oldest "lady" had broken her leg or something, which had limited her for a while, but she was starting to get back to work!

I think she also showed the presenter a DVD that one of her clients had made of them.

Teetime Thu 15-Jan-15 11:31:15

Damn! I am unmasked!grin

POGS Thu 15-Jan-15 12:28:49

Ye gods I saw the first time round too. (if it's the same prog.)

It certainly proves life can be very colourful

They all appeared to be very nice women but I felt also seemed a tad lonely. I liked the way they didn't give a toss about how others viewed them and good on them for that I say.

pompa.

You will have to use your own imagination I reckon. grin

Gordon Bennett!

Having now watched, I have a pretty good idea who you are. But being a gentleman, I wouldn't disclose my thoughts, your secret is safe with me. grin.

Watched fort for 10 minutes and decided it was far too much information.

Teetime Fri 16-Jan-15 08:48:23

I saw 10 minutes was relieved not to see myself and turned off grin.

pompa Fri 16-Jan-15 08:54:37

Ah, you didn't watch after that then, oh dear. shock

petallus Fri 16-Jan-15 12:39:03

I saw this the first time round. Quite liked the women concerned. I seem to remember their clients were on the younger side (no elderly gents who all want younger women grin)

Lona Fri 16-Jan-15 12:43:49

I saw it the first time round too, they all seemed to be enjoying themselves didn't they?

NanKate Fri 16-Jan-15 12:46:40

I tell you Pompa if I was your Escort you would ask for your money back. grin

vampirequeen Fri 16-Jan-15 16:30:00

I saw it the first time round. They all seemed perfectly happy with their jobs and it certainly topped up their pensions grin

janerowena Fri 16-Jan-15 21:00:45

grin

I always knew there would be a part time job for me somewhere!

pompa Fri 16-Jan-15 21:28:44

Par time ? they seemed to be making a career of it.

Deedaa Fri 16-Jan-15 21:31:52

Perhaps I can reinvent myself grin

NanKate Sat 17-Jan-15 07:41:43

Have you got a pair of fishnet stockings and a basque Deedaa ?

I am not sure if your old gardening shoes will cut the mustard with the clients. hmm

I've always fancied working on a sex line. Phone calls only. I could be in my fluffy dressing gown, drinking cocoa and watching TV. All I have to do is pretend I'm young, blonde and sexy...hell I have a decent indecent imagination.

Better still I wouldn't mind working on the dominatrix phone lines. Basically the man phones. I snap that he's interrupting me and tell him to wait. Then I get on with whatever I'm doing. Finally go back to the phone and demand to know what he wants. Whatever it is he's in trouble. I could keep it going for ages and as I'd be paid by the length of the calls I'd make a killing lol.

VQ You could have two lines - two calls at once and tell each of them that you have a more important client and they will have to wait. Then hold a handset to each ear and bully dominate them both at once.

vampirequeen Sat 17-Jan-15 09:50:17

Yay brill idea lol
