Unless you've been living in a cave, sharing your hot water bottle with Bin Laden, then you have heard about the BBC fiasco with our two mates Russell and Jonathon Ross. What disgusts me is the girl in the centre of this debacle. Georgina. The Slut. I'm not being rude. She is actually a Slut. A Satanic Slut. As in the dance group yeah? You know - the nobodies who want to be the ugly and more naked version of the Pussy Cat Dolls? For fucks sake its in the name! How Andrew Sachs can be surprised that she is an horror show is totally beyond belief. They shouldn't have been quite so rude on the phone to him, but the outrage that has followed has been blown out of proportion worse than Jordan's new lips.
I personally blame the writers and readers of the Daily Mail. Ignorant bastards the lot of them. If you are a reader of the Daily Mail then do me a favor and put your head in the oven. How can anyone expect credible news from people who still cover Princess Di's death?! "Tomorrow in the Daily Mail - Cold War: it might be over".
Yesterday Georgina sold her story to the Sun. As a big Sun fan I was not shocked. Just disappointed. Disappointed that Russell Brand resigned and fled the country in vain.
Not that many people actually listened to the broadcast - 3,000 Daily Mail readers later and now look were we are. A national social outcry for the head of one of the most talented comedians of our time.
Georgina has given me STD - serious television disappointment. Russell Brand has packed his bags and done one to the States. Our loss. What will save British Comedy?
Maybe one day bigots and idiots here in the UK will allow Russell back in the country to entertain us once again.
Decent television has gone the way of George Best, 2Pac and Genghis Khan. Rest In Peace British comedy.

Cannot agree, this might be a chance to accept that being rude just isn't funny, edgy or new!

Couldn't agree more. I'm disgusted to be british right now. Banal banal boring daily mail, the media as a whole has the opportunity to educate everyone every minute of every day and the mail chooses to bitch about something they had no interest in. Hope their offices burn down. Such lazy journalism.
ReplyDeleteAnd andrew sachs - agreed to be on the show one week after his granddaughters profession (? job? hobby?) was mentioned, like he or his team weren't aware of what the nature of the convo would be like! what else would they have him on to chat about - his voiceover career? the 12 episodes of a seventies show which is all he's known for? Yeah they were rude but so's a shitload of things on the bbc. Top gear is the biggest waste of money and really rather unenvironmentally friendly and i'm still happy to pay the fee.
I'm ashamed of the BBCs reaction. Long live Russell and god save comedy.
