    I'm on episode 10 of series 1 and thoroughly in awe of Christina Hendricks's character Joan (as is my boyfriend). All the online drooling I've come across also seems to be reserved for the red-haired one so my question is, are you a Joan or a Betty man/woman? Is there anyone who'd plump for Peggy over either? Just curious :p

    I added a poll. January Jones is unquestionably beautiful but she doesn't seem all that sexy to me. It's the character though, I suppose. Has she appeared vamped up in anything else, evil seed?

    Yeah shes a stunning looking girl too. I'd much prefer her to Joan. Don't really get the Joan thing myself. Fair enough she has a rack that IKEA would be proud of, but for me they are way, way too big. And she isn't as pretty as Jane or Betty.

    I have put much thought into this :D:D

    I've been reading and rereading this and it just wont compute. My brain just can't understand it. Joan is perfect.

    That's very true. Joan just isn't really to my taste. As I said I can see why other people might like her, but not my kind of girl. Betty and Jane are more like I'd like to be bringing tea up to in the moring :D:D

    The main question is how come none of the women Don has gone off with have been a fraction of a looker as Betty?

    Joan, though, by a rural 1.6 kilometres.

    That happens all the time. Look at the women Tiger Woods and Ashley Cole cheated on their wives with.

    Betty is a stunner and the clear winner for me. Joan is a good character although one I've never warmed to.

    thats funny, I've always felt that Betty while good looking had a very cold personality, whereas Joan is good looking and damn hot as well.

    That's the sexy thing I went. Joan looks like she'd eat you alive, Betty is..glacial.

    Joan. Until one of us broke.

    Trudy Campbell, Pete's wife, is pretty good looking too.
