Thanks, coco... probably a really bad sign he isn't listed on the poster...

I was just thinking the same thing grace

You would think considering all the chatter about him right now, they'd list him just to be in the link.

Numpties.

Numpties.

"Numpties", Red? I am not familiar...

That's one coco will recognise. A Scottish word (that I adore for its pithiness) - it means idiots.

So you speak English, French and Scots? And of course, Mick. (Just read your new piece... ) Woman of many talents...

So how would you pronounce that? I mean if we're going to start using numpties we should at least not sound like numpties when we do it.

It's very phonetic, blue (and it sounds wonderful).

NUMP - tees

I love all these British/Scottish phrases. Numpties, huh? I'm learning new things all the time. I never knew what "gutted" meant until Alex couldn't show up for the Breakout con.

Where I come from it's called a "bummer" We don't really have a word for idiot, except "idiot."

Thanks red. I feel a tad bit more educated now. Not a numpties at all.

Ah, beginner's mistake, blue.

One numpty, two numpties.

Numpties is a word I use here in Glasgow frequently.

Perfect description in this case.

And YES, the producers of White Out ARE numpties to have left Alex out of the credits on their poster.

Cause it gives ME the feeling he isn't in it much...

...and thus I'm not so sure I'm gonna go watch Kate Beckinsale, whom I do not have the first interest in, frolic thru snow and cold which, being that I am a Southerner, is not my climate of choice...

Of course, they are also numpties IF he isn't in it much... He had done Moonlight by then... They COULD"VE re-shot and added scenes for him... they KNEW he was a hot commodity, with an international and linguistically erudite fan base ... or they are really really really NUMPTIES!

What grace said. For me too!
