Joan Collins and Louis Theroux interview

I recall her talking about her life in Switzerland. She hasn’t always been known as FleurPepper.

Possibly not as many posters
🤔

It was a much loved, no longer with us member who told me you are Swiss. GreatNan.

No, GreatNan was a very close friend- she never ever knew me as FleurPepper. I was outed by another member, by pm- then on here. Because of comments and personal attacks under my previous GN name (the reason GN became such a great friend because she was shocked at those attacks and could not understand) I had chosen not to mention where I live.

Annie1, I am British- have been since 1973 (arrived in 1970), and lived in England for 40 years, married to a Brit, with British ACs and GCs. I returned to Switzerland to look after my very elderly parents when we retired. England will always be home too.

I have requested that this thread is removed as it has become completely hijacked and too personal.

granfromafar - not of my choosing, thanks.

Since we are at it- the pms sent to me to 'out me' in confidence, on 1st of October 2022, have all been deleted, including my reply asking for this to be kept confidential 'by request'. How strange.

GreatNan ( Carol ) died in 2013, she knew nothing about the incident you are referring to which was relatively recent.

It got derailed ages ago.

But this programme is about her not him.

Yes, by you. My post was directly related to the OP. Not what you were interested in, fair enough. But directly related to an event SHE witnessed, as SHE was there.

Ok a shout out for Greatnan. Such a talented, well informed. Interesting poster. Her loss was significant for this forum and for those of us who ciudad count her as a genuine forum friend. She was always honest and true.

This rabbit hole is getting bigger than the Great Rift Valley...

Fleurpepper why not start a thread about the Lebedev House Parties 2011-2016 , many high profile people were guests…

Hey! I've ploughed through 7 pages because I sat and watched the Joan Collins interview this very afternoon and wanted to comment. She made me laugh, she looks great for 90, is still as sharp as a tack and full of life. I visited my grandchildren yesterday afternoon and one of them had watched the interview and said, Grandma, she's just like you but with more hair! I'm not anything like JC but it made me howl with laughter as I think he meant we are both old! Watching the interview was a lovely way to lose an hour on a grey cold Sunday afternoon!
I had no idea that she was at the Lebedev house party and now I am very intrigued. I wonder what KP was doing under the table near Boris? Doesn't bare thinking about!

foxie how good to have that comparison with the full of life Joan Collins

Please don’t let the image of Kp under the table near BJ get a hold

Grandma, she's just like you but with more hair!

👏👏👏 Amazing woman. Taken too soon. 😥

For Lucky -- it wouldn't have mattered what Theroux might have known about the odious Savile -- he had the protection of Thatcher AND the Royals, who all thought he was great due to the charity fund-raising.

I think it does matter. I think Theroux makes his living by his "faux naivety" - whilst at the same time keeping a room in his house for Saville. I absolutely do not believe he was ignorant of what was going on. It matters because he knew what was happening but gave this awful man the nourishment of more publicity.

We have to assume that Thatcher and the Royals did not know.

I agree with Luckygirl

FleurvPepper,

I feel I must apologise! I should never have been so personal. My fault as I was just intrigued that you live in a country I enjoyed visiting. So sorry to all Grans%!

‘Very likely it led to blackmail’. You are skating on very thin ice - that is libellous, as are your references to the Salisbury poisonings and Russian interference in UK politics. I would suggest you ask for your post to be deleted.

Nonsense. Johnson's behaviour in Italy and subsequent hungover appearance at Perugia Airport are very well documented and photographed and available for all to see and read, even those who think he walks on water.

It is not you who need apologise. The bullying of FP is frequent and distasteful. Why someone's country of residence makes their opinion invalid mystified me, as it should all those GN members who live in France, Spain, USA or anywhere else, whether full time or part time

Thank you, don't worry. I am appalled beyond words that some chose to mention a great friend of mine, no longer with us, in this conversation. Just no words.

This is how I became great friends with someone mentionned earlier- she was appalled at the constant bullying and very personal attacks. Bringin her into this conversation was just so so wrong.

I am British, not born and bred, but have been for over 50 years, all my adult life, married to a British man and with British ACs and GCs.

Do a bit of research, it is all out there.

We don’t want homework thank you and we dont want to “educate ourselves “🙄

HPQ, Johnson’s hungover appearance was indeed well documented. His behaviour less so, hence FP’s great desire to see party guests interviewed. To say that ‘it very likely led to blackmail’ is pure surmise and, as I have already said, libellous.
