Who was making him joke about her appearance then? The directors of the show gave them material to mock - his quote was “what was I supposed to mock? The colour of their swimsuits?” he had to make a joke for the show to go on and that’s what he came out with and it caused a great deal of personal distress to poor Rebecca who had done nothing wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy is heavily suggesting that he’s being targeted for a conspiracy. If his statement had just denied the allegations and I’d posted that then what you’ve said would be true. But if he’s going to stick his neck out and assume that his videos on social media have prompted a multi-million £ conspiracy to silence him with outright lies from a national media company then I’m much more comfortable being glib about it. Except the actual victims of glib 'sue the claimants or you're admitting guilt' hot takes spreading widely within society are almost never going to be rich and powerful people like Brand, but rather the complainants who get dragged through the courts for 'false accusations'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is zero point engaging with him in good faith, he is an embittered, misogynistic arsewipe who will call you champ then post a picture of Ainsley Harriot & claim he was right all along. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Pretty sure Frankie left MTW because the Beeb kept cutting out his even-more outrageous adlibs and he wasn't happy about his best material hitting the cutting room floor. Considering they aired the stuff about Adlington and Kerry Katona, and the infamous joke about Auld Lizzie's clacker, Christ only knows what was too harsh. (I'm missing the stuff about Katie Price, as she's been using her son to fund her bankruptcies for a couple of decades now, which is even more disgusting than any jokes he made) I’m sure he said that it was a joke about Israel which the BBC refused to air as they deemed it anti-semitic that caused him to chuck it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 1 hour ago, throbber said: I remember Nick Hancock (who comes across as a decent enough chap) was talking about how they would abuse Luke Chadwick on They think it’s all over because of he had a face like a fire damaged apricot. He basically admitted how unpleasant the abuse was but that he didn’t really feel like it was anything nasty or that anyone would be getting hurt out of it all but I can imagine it being a horrible experience for Chadwick who was a young man trying to do his job but having his facial features ridiculed for the whole world to see. Similar happened to Rebecca Addlington with Frankie Boyle (who didn’t want to ridicule her appearance and left the show because of it) but there was definitely an abusive toxic media culture back then that made certain people fair game for heinous personal abuse. I think looking at the way brand conducted himself in the 00’s with all the knowledge we have nowadays doesn’t tell the entire story. Yeah, a truly cursed era. Reality TV, poverty porn, c***s like Brand, Jeremy Kyle, Bo Selecta etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only he knows if he was arguing in bad faith. I didn’t take any of it badly, I thought he made good points but didn’t really apply to what id actually said. I don’t really have a problem with that. I did make a flippant comment without having even seen the documentary so I left myself open a bit in fairness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, everything Leigh Francis has done has been utterly dire, and the absolute definition of ITV2. 2 minutes ago, Carl Cort's Hamstring said: When will the David Jason documentary be? I think the timeline is approximately six months to a year after all the "nation's treasure" memorial TV specials have finished. Everyone has to hold off until then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 You can bet a wedge that the programme was checked to within an inch of its life. I read somewhere that it’s been being made since 2019, I bet a substantial part of that was taken up with making sure it was all legally air tight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
