They really need to bring him back out of retirement so to rip the shit out of the new breed of wanky Insta/Woke Celebs. He'd murder them.. 😅
 




Nb - At a time when the Beeb weren't completely stuck up it's own arse too.

Dennis Pennis:
[to Demi Moore] Are there any circumstances, if it wasn't gratuitous and it was tastefully done, would consider keeping your clothes on in a Movie?

He was good as the psychiatrist in ‘Afterlife’

Paul Kaye is OK for a gooner. Played a gooner hooligan in Cass didn't he. Ironically once worked for Spurs and had an office in WHL. He's also of Jewish origin. 

Love ''It's All Gone Pete Tong"'.

Remember watching his genius film Four Lions with my bird when it first came out in a Cinema in Luton and the Screening was full of locals and everyone was roaring their heads off at it taking zero offence. Remember this was released only 4 years after 7/7 where many were on edge. That's how good his poignant satirical work was, crossing divides with ease tackling tough subjects with the funniest darkest humour.
Great post. I reckon you're the sort of bloke who, if you ever got it, would definitely get good AIDS

Oh that's easy! James Corden. Nice to see an utter cÕ½nt get mugged off.
Second place Stephen Fry.

And your good self?
I think the question is far too tricky as there is too many to narrow it down to just one. But if I had to go for one to be humiliated in a major way right now it would have to be Queer Starmer. The material would be endless and the Govt would probably have to take him out with a sniper from a nearby rooftop to make him stop.

The thought of him door-stepping Starmer and Lady Vic would be amazing. Having said that, Trump's kind of already done that recently himself so probably no need for it now. 🤣

He was harsh, but hilarious. 

Chris Morris was another who was incredibly funny, but shows like The Day Today and Brass Eye wouldn’t happen today, sadly. 






 
 
 
Yeah that Steve Martin one just came across as mean. He looked genuinely surprised and upset by it as well.
Bit like one time someone similar squirted water all over Tom Cruise on the red carpet at one of his premieres. Say what you like about Tom Cruise as a person, but that was just a shitty, unfunny thing to do.

He might get away with it once, but after that any big celebrity will be hastily ushered away from him by PR people these days before he gets a chance.

I reckon the typical thicko "Influencer" types, especially in the States would fall hook, line and sinker for his antics running rings around them. He'd roast the Kardashaians or even a Puff Daddy for example. He'd ruin Sadiq Khan as well.

I also think he's smart enough to go close to the bone without crossing over a line. He'd imply shit that would sound riske but reckon he'd tip-toe expertly around it. But not on the Beeb as they are finished as a credible Boradcaster of quality entertainment anymore. It would be more of a YouTube thing like what Spitting Image have managed to reinvent.

Wouldn't last 5 mins now, just like Sacha Baron Cohen.
Plus I think he's too well known and distinctive looking for anyone to fall for it plus being too old, and in the age of social media you'd never be able to get a show out fast enough because 20 people will be filming it on their phones and uploading it to various platforms- probably slating him for being mean to celebs- if he gets close to them before PR people usher them away.

For a minute there I thought he'd carked it.

I'd forgot him, yes he was very entertaining.

He was great in his day, but Offcom would shut him down immediately.
