Distressingly, this is the second time this frankly alarming clip has appeared on this blorum. Must we fling this filth at our pop grandads….again?
Was Robert in that video?
He was indeed.
You probably just didn’t notice him because of all the other tits
Is he in this one?
Agreed.
Please try and exercise a little restraint!
The year is barely two weeks old and yet we’ve already managed to squeeze in 33% of the forum’s annual count.
It’s a mystery….
They want to be free…
So, Toyah’s doing the ..er.. bosom and Sophie’s taking care of the legs..
Thing is, I’m a bum man, so my question is which of our pop beauties is doing the lockdown arse vids?
Apart from Fripp?
Seems like a nice enough fella to me..
@Sewer-Robot that would be Ed Sheeran – enjoy.

Go together like a horse and carriage
What a lovely couple.
Any one else thinking of Sugar Puffs?
Have to say Mr Fripp is very gallant – throughout the video he hasnt looked at her tits once. I didnt have the same restraint and I doubt many of you lot did either.
To be fair, he can look at them any time he wants. Having a couple of minutes off is probably no bother.
They’ll need to get that central heating fixed.
Tell you what, I’ll line one up. I like that drying rack they have.
I’ve got one of those. It’s in the ‘utility room’ (a cupboard containing the gas boiler and a sink). Plonk yer wet washing on it, pull on the rope, 24 hours later it’s all dry. Those Victorians knew a thing or two about housework.
Yep, they left it to those downstairs.
First thing I noticed
We had one of those when I was a kid. I remember feeling embarrassed about it, that we didn’t have a tumble dryer like wot Alan’s family had.
We had one in our flat in Glasgow when I was a kid. We called it the ‘dolly’ but I don’t know if that was a regional thing.
Officially called a Sheila Maid tm.
We used to call ours a creel.
Put one in our present house, worked well until the rope broke and fell on my head. Since repaired, the rope that is not the head.
She was in Jubilee wasn’t she? The Derek Harman film where Adam & the Ants performed Plastic Surgery.
Jordan was in it too. No, not that one…
I guess at that young age it never occurred to her that another time would come when she would be in a theatre with someone performing plastic surgery.
👌
PS “Derek Harman”? I didn’t know you were Spanish.
I’ll get me cape.
He’s obviously referring to the Spanish language remake featuring Iberian cult figure Hordan
Harriet’s brother.
Just got around to watching this. How utterly bizzare. I enjoy their surreal videos though.
It’s just occurred to me – who has an exercise bike in their kitchen?
At a guess, I’d say the Fripps.
With pinched red nose, hawkish eyes and shirt, neat hair, white shirt and green tie, Fripp looks exactly like my grandad most of the years I knew him. He couldn’t keep his eyes off his wife either, but that was because my granny was a real matriarch whose word was law and never stopped talking. She didn’t look at all like Toyah, I hasten to add.
Toyah has just posted on my Facebook feed that I can order a personalised video message from her to put a smile on my face. https://celebvm.com/toyahwillcox
This may prove to be quite a popular service.
There’s a word for that sort of thing.
Enjoy your eyesight while you can, feller.
E was thinkin o others, note mysef so munch.
Poor lad’s gone already.
Wow, that guitar playing is riveting !
So. Does anyone know what tuning Fripp is using?
He’s certainly been twiddling those machine heads.
New Standard aka Guitar Craft tuning?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_standard_tuning
And there’s more …
‘racked up’? Is Moose responsible for the video script?
I deny everything.
Are they … are they … sharing the outfits Toyah keeps in her ‘special drawer’?
Robert Fripp’s comment suggests they know EXACTLY why they got 2.7 million views last week…
RF: That increasingly popular pair are back with Toyah & Robert’s Sunday Lockdown Lunch, featuring the second of Toyah’s home exercise regimen…
Increasingly popular pair. Behave!
That new one is fucking dreadful.
So, can someone explain to me how YouTube views translate into cash. Is 2.7 million views for one video worth as much or more to Mrs Fripp as her I Want To Be Free* days?
I watch video makers who regularly put up informative and/or creative content and I see, over time their viewership and subscribers crawl up to maybe the half million mark. They make a living from this, but I assume it’s the subscriber numbers that generate the revenue and attracts sponsors, non?
(*nowadays, I suppose that line would be
So what if I dye my hair/ I know you’re not looking up there..)
Poor Robert Fripp… 50+years of painstaking, wilfully difficult musicianship and what finally makes him properly famous is his wife’s silicone knockers.
And now – answering your questions posed in YouTube Comments
(sort of like a Prog Rock version of Loose Women)
There’s an interview with Toyah in today’s Guardian. Her extroversion and need to perform are well to the fore, and it’s rather moving to read how she devised the home videos as a way to stop Fripp from getting depressed in lockdown.

Extroversion is a curse! I don’t envy extroverts.
It’s a fascinating read, true enough, and I can’t stand the woman. But, yes, it must be difficult for musicians who are used to being on the road semi permanently. I am on a closed FB group for GPs (oo er) which includes Steve Knightley’s (Show of Hands) missus, she being in the trade, and she says how difficult it is for him (and possibly the family) to be knocking around the house all day, when he is usually playing an average 3 days a week, all over the country.
