Hi I did get upset to start with cause I really thought it was true. Then I realised it was a joke and was a bit offended but then I decided it was quite funny. So no offence taken honestly. Debbie

Yes, I am one of those stupid ones that really believed it. The thing was she didnt give the answer till a few messages later, and then I realised. Thick or what.

Oh for christ sake. Listen when she first posted the message it said in Capital letters. that a Actress has been murdered but couldnt remember the name Reece something. So then someone replied saying Witherspoon and said she was in Legaly blonde. As I had never seen that film I asked what other films she had been in. then finally she put up not witherspoon but witherknife. Now a good few minutes had gone by and I really thought that this poor woman had been murdered. and I was upset. Then when I realised it was all a joke I said not a very good joke. But later I emailed Kylie because I realised it was funny after getting over the shock that someone had been murdered. So dont all start saying fancy someone being offended over that. At the time I thought it was real Is that ok with everybody.

Shall we just say that the way in which the joke was posted (ie the delay) didn't help the joke (after all timing is everything in comedy) and leave it at that ? IT was a bit of humour thaht went awry, there's no need for recrimination. Either that or I'll post the headless corpse on the railway track joke again lol

I took all of 10 seconds reading the posts and then the penny dropped. I admit I laughed! I enjoyed it Kylie. Viv

dont worry, I just took it as someone had died and thought murder how awful. and then I still wasnt sure so I think I wrote is this a joke? if it is it is not funny. but after posting that message i thought it was funny and emailed her and told her sorry.
