British Winter Olympic Team 2010:

BBC profiles

Apart from Chemmy Alcott & Penny Coomes we could maybe win the usliest medals:

Lesley Mckenna in Gold, Jenna McCorkell Silver and Ellie Koyander in Bronze

Obvioulsy i'm only joking and wish them all good luck 🙂

Eve Muirhead seems OK….

I think they're all lookers myself.
Obviously I'm making this point from a particularly low plateau of beauty.

Eve Muirhead seems OK….

Looks just like my sister.

Have we had a Chemmy appreciation thread yet?

Who was the one who splashed her crack all over the news when the lycra failed ?

It's going to be a Winter Olympics A&A thread tomorrow people, you heard it here first!

Kati Witt mmmmm!

Gillian Cooke spilt her arse out.

Chemmy seems quite popular …

Well there not the most flattering of shots, I'm sure I could pull far worse of myself out, though that mckenna headshot is a very bad one!1

What happened to Leslie McKenna?? She was really cute in the film Dropstitch, even with her terrible lip injury..

now

then

Not sure about the OP's statement. Sure, the photos come across a lot like dreaded passport photos but think there are some fine looking lasses on that page.
Here is the youtube link to the lycra failure ( pretty sure it is work safe 😉

Just looked at the biog for the girl who ripped her kecks and it say at the bottom :–

She is also a talented trumpeter.

I lol'd hard at that.

Your thread is FAIL

Can we have a pic of the OP to compare ugliness with?

My those passport pics are HORRIFIC though! They look like a criminal line up of offenders, DV victims and paedophiles 😉 they could've taken better pics than that! Think anyone would look awful if taken like that.

thats what i was kind of getting at….. im sure the athletes are trilled with them.

TF for ski masks, goggles and full face helmets.

Worth a look if your bored

Tada!

nice one drac…

Drac, you are Shane Warne's lovechild and I claim my £5.

😉

I would hazard a gues at that being carbon 🙄

Bit podgy aren't you? Don't think you'll be making any olympic teams. 😛

You right Lowey.

sorry Carbon but sometimes you can't hide from the power of the internet.

Eeek, I hope you don't ride a carbon, Carbon!

Only kidding, Drac, if you were my mate (and it's questionable if you're a mate of Carbon) you'd be getting a smack in the mouth the next time we met.

Oh yeah, well in that case, Carbon, you are Shane Warne's lovechild and I claim my £5.

Although, a bit of Alex Lifeson as well, I reckon…

Bit podgy aren't you? Don't think you'll be making any olympic teams.

how about one of your good self? 8)

how about one of your good self?

I don't want to make anyone feel insecure by comparing themselves to me…

But here goes.

Podgy speccy four-eyes if you must know

Sorry too harsh, too un PC.

Go for it 🙂

Amy Williams = Sarah Jessica Parker?

They look like typical passport photographs, guaranteed to make the healthiest, most beautiful, athletic specimen of humanity look like a zombie crack whore.

In my former life as a lecturer, we used to be given a poster of all the students in the department (about 150), made up of passport photos – it really was like "spot the mong", but gave hours of amusement when combined with a couple of rubber dart sucker gun things off Play. We had a points scoring system, with bonus points for a "ginger kill"

FFS…..so now you have to be pretty to be an athlete!

And here I just thought being good at something and then being the best in competition was enough to win gold?

Surely they could all be forgiven if they trapped the photographer in the carpark for some kicking practice……

FFS…..so now you have to be pretty to be an athlete!

Someone fix that person's sense of humour!

Go for it

It was along the lines of we seem to be assembling an STW Special Winter Olympics team here.

Maybe if they did a STW picture wall we would all look so glam…

maybe not..

C

my Olympic security pass photo is shocking, and yet I am gorgeous

Had a look at the British team and then the Swedish female team! Not what I expected at all – what happened to all the good looking Swedish women? Obviously none are athletes!

Drac, if you were my mate (and it's questionable if you're a mate of Carbon) you'd be getting a smack in the mouth the next time we met.

You'd punch your mates for linking a photo that you'd uploaded yourself, wow I bet your a right bundle of fun.
