I feel sad about Kevin Spacey. I always liked him, especially in The Usual Suspects. I thought he came across well in interviews and loved watching him do his impersonations. He seemed to be quite self-deprecating and giving of his time and talent. Just goes to show how mistaken one can be.Classy - or rather, Smeggy's idea of classy - is what she aspires to. For instance, her 'classy girl' customised number plate back in the day, and references to herself as such in The Tig.
Dream on love. You miss it by a mile. A word in yer shell-like Yer Smeggyness...
1. Customised number plates are seldom 'classy'*
2. I don't think people who are widely perceived as classy think of themselves as such, they're just themselves.
3. Money, clothes, labels, jewels, attending red carpet events, associating with slebs, et bloody cetera do not equal classy. It's about manners, kindness, consideration for others, loyalty, doing good by stealth, not having any 'side' and so on.
*Off topic: Pre-disgrace (his not mine), I sometimes passed Kevin Spacey's gaff on Cheyne Walk (v posh part of the Thames Embankment) and he had two motors with plates 2B and NOT2B respectively. He was the Artistic Director at the Old Vic at the time. I liked that.
Although I could never watch House of cards: Francis Urquhart is always going to be Ian Richardson to me.
