  2. I LOVE these!! It’s such a great way to really get an insight into our blogging friends! Pretty Woman is on my top 10 list of films… it may even be number one. One things for sure, I can quote all of the dialogue, much to everyone’s annoyance!!

    Cue ‘Well colour me happy — there’s a sofa in here for two!!’ Haha!! Love it 🙂 X

  17. Fab – love these posts and finding out more about bloggers. I’m also a Pretty Woman girl and was pleased to hear they’re making it into a musical, though I suspect the very thought of that filled MOH with dread 🙂 Thanks for hosting x

  22. This is 73 questions thing is the equivalent of riffling through a bloggers drawers…love it. Just want to reassure you I’m not actually going to riffle through your drawers, that would be weird and stalker like, but you know metaphorically getting the inside scoop.

  25. I don’t know which film I know more of the script of – Pretty Woman or Four Weddings and a Funeral! I also love Hitchcock’s The 39 Steps. It’s not scary like some of his other films but has been changed quite a bit from the original book.
