It's a good job you didn't reveal this before the mod elections...

Well that's a lie, you've never stopped at 2 in your life.

I think both Jonathan Ross and Russel Brand are nincompoops.

Having listened to the whole show (I listen to every show), I'd like to add that it wasn't a "prank" call. Sachs was supposed to be a guest on the show but he didn't turn up, so they rang and got through to his answer machine, which is where it all started.

Perhaps Sachs ought to have answered his phone, as they had arranged.

And this, they didn't call him randomly, they called him because an interview had been arranged which he skipped out on.

Presumably if HIGNFY had done the tub of lard thing recently you'd all want it cancelled too.

Yes, they were cunts but approximately 25% as much as those who won't shut the fuck up about it.

DAMN IT DUDS! Stop being there before me all of the time. I'm off to bed, should I expect to find you in there, hugging my girlfriend?

so because he does not answer, they leave crude messages ??

I like 2 Pints of Lager.

That, however, was not funny.

Not really. Brand was trying to "do the interview with the answering machine", when Jonathan Ross chimed in with "he fucked your granddaughter".

Having listened to those YouTube links it seems Ross encourages most of it, and Brand just plays off him.

Perhaps they should have just stuck a jar of assorted tapas on the desk and interviewed that.

It might know where Maddie is.

This is spiralling out of control. If either of them are sacked over this it's PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad^TM.

The reactions to this have just been ludicrously beyond parody. It's like the outrage-equivalent of the paroxysms of group grief that everyone went into over The Sainted Diana. Outrage-gasms, if you will.

I weep for my country. I really do.

Wait.

He actually DID sleep with her?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7696714.stm

And then she got interviewed on the central line apparently.

myp · **Posted:** Wed Oct 29, 2008 10:24

Yes, that's why Ross said it. Probably not the cleverest thing to do, mind.

MrChris · **Joined:** 1st Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 30498

Why not? My wife's parents are fully aware I've shagged her, so I'm not sure they'd be too offended if I mentioned it.

Dudley · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 8679

Well that makes it even LESS a scandal then if it's actually true.

I don't think anyone would have a reasonable expectation of privacy sleeping with him

MaliA · **Posted:** Wed Oct 29, 2008 10:31

I can't find any pictures of her, so I don't care.

DBSnappa · **Posted:** Wed Oct 29, 2008 10:35

This is pretty reprehensible, but I just asked Henny Wenny and the sky isn't falling down. However, they probably should be severely reprimanded if only for being such fucking incomprehensible retarded smug cunts on the tax payers vig.

I'd fire the fucking lot of them if it was me and give their combined salaries to a Spanish donkey refuge

Probably all the fuss over this now is getting a bit out of hand, still let's face it, they deserve to be sacked for being unfunny and ludicrously overpaid (especially Ross), quite apart from this incident.

As a friend pointed out elsewhere, Jonathan Ross is desperately aware that he isn't funny enough to be a standup and he really wants to be so just goes for reflected glory.

According to Google her stage name is "Voluptura". There's someone on that site by that name. And that site is awful.

Reflected glory from Russell Brand? Oh my.

No, wait; it's just that she's trying to conform to too many goth stereotypes at once. Presumably she has no descernible personality of her own and has to make do with a patchwork quilt made from pieces of other people's.

What the fuck is a "euphamism", some kind of pipe organ?

I'm much more concerned about the supposed '10 000' (!) people who complained becuase the Mail told them to, despite not having heard it. Any excuse to attack the BBC, that's what this is really about. Doesn't Russel Brand do this sort of thing all the time?

So basically one member of the family couldn't be fucked to meet their own commitments, the other is a dubious personality at best and people want them sacked largely for pointing out the one fact to the other person.

God I'm now reaching the point of actively feeling sorry for Brand.

myp · **Posted:** Wed Oct 29, 2008 12:17

Me too. I think he's a twat, but the Daily Mail brigade are now sharpening their flaming torches and siding with him is the lesser of two evils.

Woah steady on there. Being a burlesque dancer doesn't automatically make you a dubious personality. Does it?

No, but I wouldn't trust their views on the nuclear deterrent, if that's any help.

I'm still siding with the Daily Mail types, simply because we need a reason to lynch Brand.

I suppose the whole media frenzy about this is just a modern version of a show trial. But wouldn't it be better if we could have real show trials, like in the good old days?
