[Lucille]

She’s 21!!!

 

[Tisch]

Is Always Over Now.

That doesn't quite make sense no?

 

[Tisch]

She’s 21!!!

Fuck off

 

[Madison]

Is that Paul Harrington in the background?

EDIT: It is!

 

[Tisch]

Like a fat LeAnn Rimes wannabe with Katrina hair

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh yes. Come through Janice Battersby.

 

[Generic Account]

This is quite nice.

 

[win_the_game]

She's got some MOUTH on her. You could fit a dinner plate in there.

 

[Penelope]

Like a YOUNG BRUTALIST COUNCIL OFFICE! SLAY ME BUTCH QUEEN

 

[Lucille]

Fuck off

Shes 44 now!!!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I quite like it to be fair.

The satin trouser suit is wholly unacceptable.

 

[Generic Account]

Best vocal yet from Dawn.

 

[Lucille]

She’s selling this warm turd!

 

[Raining on Me]

She’s 21!!!

!

The 90s were HARD

 

[Tisch]

Shes 44 now!!!

@Penelope we need some hot recent instas please. I expect her to look the same know and be wearing the same blazer

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Shes 44 now!!!

Those North Atlantic winds will do that in the days before moisturiser.

 

[lolly]

She's definitely worked in a jobcentre

 

[win_the_game]

I quite like it to be fair.

The satin trouser suit is wholly unacceptable.

There's a whiff of everywoman in the accounts department circa 1998 about our Dawn.

 

[Penelope]

BEST ONE SO FAR. That key change was like being hit by a TRUCK/DAWN HERSELF!

 

[Tisch]

That's at least my fourth favourite so far

 

[straightorbroken]

Those wrenches would make Lonnie Gordon proud.

 

[lolly]

That eye make up though

 

[Dark Carnival]

HIGH TECH!

 

[Lucille]

BEST ONE SO FAR. That key change was like being hit by a TRUCK/DAWN HERSELF!

 

[VoR]

Portugal literally haven't changed a note of their approach from 1985 to the present day, have they?

That said, I find this one very sweet.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

I can't see any new pics of Miss Ireland 1978 alas.

 

[Tisch]

Excuse me I'll stick with Go_A for my quota not mad women in red dresses thanks.

 

[lolly]

NEVER CHANGE PORTUGAL

 

[straightorbroken]

Kathy Griffin meets Katie Waisel.

 

[Tisch]

BEST ONE SO FAR. That key change was like being hit by a TRUCK/DAWN HERSELF!

HOWLING

 

[VoR]

Big Dawn was quite the drunken breakout star of my last 1998 re-watch with Penny, Pingu, Suomi and Tetris Rock.

Ouzo-fuelled TENS ACROSS THE BOARD.

 

[Generic Account]

Nice. Bagpipes!

 

[Lucille]

This is sweet!

 

[AGinAg (37)]

This is jolly in a 1998 advert for Nando's kinda way.

 

[octophone]

I don't feel qualified to comment on Portugal.

 

[lolly]

I want a square tambourine

 

[straightorbroken]

And at this moment Suzi came out her mother's vagina. In sequins.

 

[COB]

Imagine if Madge had used THIS as her Madame X hot fado inspiration.

It would've been much better

 

[Tisch]

How is she clapping no literally no beat?!!

 

[Lucille]

The dress is quite COUTURE.
