BDH is the best story-listener I may have ever seen. She puts her whole body into the act of listening. 

Is It wrong that I might want Jake Shears's feather collar?

Excellent description!

She was in a short documentary that I hated every second of, and every single person in it, and I've actually avoided her.  But she won me over last night.

Jeff Goldblum is such a weirdo, but also a good sport.  Offering to go into the audience to do a side-by-side with his "lookalike" Andy, and then later saying he was going to have him go in for him when he doesn't want to go to work, and remembering his name. 

This episode didn't bowl me over, but it was another where famous people just seemed to be having a good time, which this show does so well.

I haven't heard of Shears, but I liked the song - and thought that he could be dropped back in the 70's and fit right in.

It really helps that she has a robust, seemingly-sincere, and infectious laugh.

I loved how much BDH laughed at others' stories. Yes, she was a great story-listener.

I thought this was a great couch. I adore Jeff Goldblum. He's weird, but always delightful, at least to me.

I'll have to look into Line of Duty.

That story about Posh Spice mistaking Thandie Newton for Zoe Saldana was mortifying and hilarious at the same time.
