Yes,I agree with your analysis :)

Well with Charlotte you can only have sex with her nose, eyes, ears, bottom, and vagina, but with Carol you have the extra option of her cheek flaps. :joker:

A woman in her 50s with wrinkles? Don't be so bloody ridiculous.

Nedusa 03-09-2013 07:07 AM

She has a great figure,facially she reminds me of Lauren in Emmerdale.

nina73 03-09-2013 08:31 AM

oh come on of course shes got wrinkles shes in her middle years hasn't had any face work done its good for her age .I wouldn't mind her figure either shes ok..:joker:

Vanessa 03-09-2013 08:33 AM

She's got a nice figure.

mizzy25 03-09-2013 09:06 AM

I actually started a topic on how good her figure is. its fantastic for a woman of 52 infact facially I don't actually think shes that bad saying as she hasn't had botox or anything.

joeysteele 03-09-2013 09:12 AM

She reminds me more of sourpuss Gail from Corrie to be honest.

She doesn't need anything done. I think she looks fine. Her boyfriend agrees! :hugesmile:

CaudleHalbard 03-09-2013 09:35 AM

Carol can pull guys young enough to be her sons. I think that speaks for itself!

DanaC 03-09-2013 10:32 AM

Wow. A 52 year old woman with wrinkles! Who'd have thunk it?

The only reason her wrinkles draw any kind of comment is because she is on the tv screen. We are just not used to seeing women who actually look middle aged on telly.

I think she looks great. Cracking figure and a lived in face. Every line speaks to life of experiences and adventures. We can see the rugged beauty of a man with lines on his face, why not the beauty of age in a woman?

I hope she doesn't get a face lift. As long as women with aging faces are invisible in society, and as long as the signs of age on a woman are horrifying to us, there will be objections to the sight of them. As long as there are objections to the sight of them, there will be few women showing their age in the media, and so on, and so on.

In terms of personality, she gets on my nerves at times (though at other times she doesn't). But there's nothing wrong with the way she looks. Aging isn't a loss of beauty it is a change of beauty. There is beauty in age. We are just conditioned not to appreciate it by a society and culture that despises age and particularly in women.

..I agree that she looks good for her age, especially her figure and I don't usually comment on appearances because it's not something that's relevant ..for me it's more about the character...but I don't agree that lines/wrinkles etc are only being noticed because she's on TV...I've seen beautiful women in their 50s/60/70s that to me look 'younger' than Carol in the sense that the 'story' their lines tell is from smiles and laughter whereas I think Carol's miserable personality and moaning/negativity ages her a lot, whether she be on TV or not..I just think the beauty of an older woman comes from everything they've done etc and not laughter from alcohol either...and to me that's the only time Carol seems to laugh/smile..and then it's often at someone else's expense as well....

She's bitchy, but she's funny with it. That is why i can't help liking her. :joker:

rusticgal 03-09-2013 11:12 AM

What makes me laugh is that those forum member who claim she is bitchy...make the bitchiest comments.
Carol is just honest and says what she sees...at least you know where you stand with her. I think she is funny... and for a woman her age she has a good figure...so what if her neck etc are a bit cranky.

I think she's awful, so define bitchy?
Yes carol is honest some say to a fault... me, I say that.
I also say she drinks a lot and makes a tit of herself, it's sad enough when charlotte does it but when she does it it's just pathetic.

She's funny and that's why most people don't mind her bitching. A bit like Luke Marsden. :joker:

Carol McGiffin, Carol McGiffin, tongue of a serpent, face of a griffin.

Daffodil 03-09-2013 01:35 PM

It's a case of 'nice body, shame about the face'.
