Rolling Stones Programme On Bbc4 Last Night

[237SJ]

Did anyone see it. Just watching it on catch up now. Funny, when I was younger I thought Mick Jagger was ugly but seeing it now, I would :)

[NellieMay]

Ha ha. I always was fascinated by him. He is in no way pretty, but my goodness ....................... I know what you are saying!

[Buenchico]

He could sometimes manage an expression of 'little boy innocence' (despite his 'wild' reputation) when he was young

. . . but, sadly, age and illness have taken their toll recently

I saw them at Twickenham last summer and age certainly didn't seem to have taken it's toll. He had more energy than someone half his age.

My cousin went to see the stones last summer in Manchester, she loves the old git for some reason or other ;-)

I shall never understand women. And no, didn't see it.

(Mind you, some songwriter even thought he had 'moves', whereas I always saw he just jerked about.)

he's 75 (Bill Wyman's 82). He's always been fit (in the older sense of he word) - wasn't his dad a PE teacher? He was quite pretty when young, they all were - that's why Ian Stewart was never allowed to be a member of the band despite playing with them for 20 years - not cute enough.

A star as big and for as long as Mick Jagger has been a star is a guarantee of polarised opinions.

I remember that the sight of his sneering visage from Top Of The Pops used to be enough to convince the 'older generation' that he was the architect of the end of civilisation as we know it!

I think he was, is, and remains, a true star, which is what we need more of, instead of 'celebrities' who get to famous for five minutes because they haven't actually done anything memorable.

Old rubber lips - never fancied him even when I saw him play Windsor in his youth. Their music has grown on me; great belted out from my posh red jag to annoy asian ladies.....am a rat ;)
