I thought I'd fill a short hiatus with an OBB nomination for an actress who has caught my eye recently. Back in the nineties the actress Andie MacDowell starred in Groundhog Day, Four Weddings and a Funeral and many other films. While she was undeniably beautiful, I wouldn’t say she was sexy exactly. Her daughter, however, is another matter entirely. Margaret Qualley is the hot actress who seems to be in every indie film at the moment, including How to Make a Killing, The Substance, Drive-Away Dolls, Honey Don’t, etc. She trained as a ballet dancer before moving into acting and is married to musician Jack Antonoff. She combines her mother’s beauty with a sassy sexy quality, and I think would make a strong OBB contender. Bend over please, Margaret, there's a good girl…

Culver has been mashing up with the Joneses with this follow up to last week’s OBB post . January Jones finds herself subject to a New Regime . Recruited to Buzee-Bees , Felicity Jones is assigned to Mr Philpot, Mr Viney, Mr Filbright, Mr Fieldway, Mr Kingley and Mr Baring for a fifth instalment of the popular Blushes Supplement series. Felicity also faces the dark side of old rogue #1, Bert Miggins, in a sequel set a long time ago in a Blushes universe far, far away… Blushes readers can ‘join the dots’ in the case of Daisy Edgar Jones. Emilia Jones looks unhappy about her role in a missing segment of Moral Welfare . Catherine Zeta-Jones usurps Lucie Martin as the subject of a Summer Pastime . Rashida Jones prepares for her Induction . Rashida strongly reminds me of the cover girl of Janus 140 who, I believe, has yet to see her photoset posted in this blog [you are correct Culver] . Since New Moral Order pitched for a Smith to join the Jone...

Has it ever struck you how many attractive young ladies carry the name of Jones? I know it’s a common surname, but still. How many hot celebrities called Smith can you name? In honour of the many lovely Joneses I’m doing an OBB special, with a top five run down. Firstly, an honourable mention for two lovely ladies that I didn’t have room for — smoky-voiced jazz singer Norah Jones and comedy actress Rashida Jones ( Parks & Recreation , The Office ). Now on to the Top Five… 5. Catherine Zeta Jones She first came to our attention as cute Mariette Larkin in The Darling Buds of May  which launched her Hollywood career where she won an Oscar for playing the sexy murderess Velma Kelly in Chicago before marrying Michael Douglas (and largely disappearing from our screens). A proper Welsh Jones girl with a pretty face and sexy body. I think some corner-time followed by six of the best with the cane for CZJ… 4. Janu...

Culver has a nomination… The evocative Bring on the Clowns story from Uniform Girls may be set in a 1930s country house but the model's costume in the photo-set pandered to a contemporary fad. Siouxsie Sioux, who had adopted the harlequin look in her punk years, deserves an OBB for the Blushes mood she projects in this image connected with her video for Happy House in 1980, somewhat before Blushes and Uniform Girls graced newsstand’s top shelves.

Basil Miggins has nominated a couple of soap stars for the Order of the Burning Bot and, taking inspiration from Culver, has presented them in collage format after they have  fallen into the clutches of the redoubtable Miss Brown. Firstly, here is Jacqui Dixon from Brookside, played by Alex Fletcher. Secondly, Bethany Platt of Coronation Street, played by Lucy Fallon.

Good luck to the England Lionesses in their semi-final against Italy on Tuesday. Their quarter-final hero in the penalty shoot-out, Hannah Hampton, was profiled in the Times yesterday and I was struck by her resemblance to the lovely Janus star Rebecca Coleman . Could they, by any chance, be related? Either way, we know how she should be dealt with if she lets us down on Tuesday …

Dear Sirs, Your magazines perform a noble and necessary function; I can’t imagine life without Blushes . But it seems that unless you are being constantly chivvied you are willing to slip into complacent ways. Letters recently have been exceptionally good, especially the return of celebrity punishments. Justified criticism led to a marked improvement in your stories. But then, a few issues on, you seem to be losing your touch again; the last magazines I bought were dominated by single stories extended way beyond their capacity. Variety is the spice of spanking. How can anybody contrive to write dull texts on such a gloriously exciting subject? I wish more people would write to you, as the letters section is frequently the best bit of the magazine. Indeed, after so many disappointments in the past year, I now look at the letters and make them my reason for buying or not buying a particular issue. What I want to see is greater severity, more effective methods of humiliation, and ...
