I had a pair of these.

One for CT.

Great picture. I never thought she suited longer hair, but that never before seen picture disproves my view.

Beautiful teeth and skin, as ever - not something a bulimic can take for granted. She was very lucky in that dept.

Phew, I was getting a bit nervous scrolling through those for a second...

Snejana Onopka's on the list.

I'm surprised Gemma Ward's at Number One. To me, she just looked like what you'd get if Vlada and Sasha had a baby together and was, therefore, on a lower rung than them.

I don't think it was supposed to be a list where No.1 was the equivalent to best, and so on.

I don't fancy any of them BTW.

Sitting next to Marilyn Monroe and playing on her iPhone...tut tut.

A few more for CT (others pending)...

She’s just great. First Wives Club was on quite recently. That’s the last film I ever watched with my grandmother before she went to a nursing home. I made her soup and we watched Goldie.

It's Dolly's birthday today.

Here she is in 1966.

As much as I like her, and as great as she looks, and as lovely as she seems to be (the books for poor kids thing), ‘old school beauty and elegance’ are not terms I’d apply. She has her own thing, and it’s attractive, but it’s not either of those.

Shut it, you toilet.
