Lara has “everything that a man would like to meet,” says Carroll
You couldn’t make this up. New Lara model Alison Carroll reckons Lara Croft has all the things a man wants in a woman.
“She’s got everything that a woman aspires to be like and everything that a man would like to meet,” she told the BBC.
Carroll’s comments came after her faff was smeared all over the internet this morning is some fairly astonishing bury-me-in-a-y-shaped-coffin promotional shots.
Despite the ignominy, though, Alison’s up-beat about the whole affair. And why not? Before landing the Lara job she was a receptionist gymnast in Croyden. As you do.
“It’s an amazing opportunity,” she said. “Lara is strong, athletic, confident and independent so it’s a huge responsibility to take on her role.”

Think of it as a target. Something to aim for.

I use GTA style targeting so I’d probably miss.

Cutlack’s take on this sordid case of PR gone wrong is nothing short of brilliant. I’ve been chuckling about this all day.

I approve of Blackadder references.
“I touched her in the corridor once.”
“In her where?”
