Never Mind the Buzzcocks

Apparently Graham Norton's got Wogan's Eurovision gig, but I reckon Simon would've been an excellent choice.

Ooohh! I'd have tuned in for Simon's comments. Norton would have been good 10 years ago, but he's too mainstream now.

To be honest though, if some continental folk didn't like Wogan then they'd really think we were taking the piss with Simon.
 
I dont know what's wrong with some people! This series has got really good in the last three or four shows, both Davina and Dermot were decent guest chairs. The 'isn't it fantastic we've got... here' is blatantly a set up for the piss-taking later, and takes ten seconds.

And this week we had Arlene Phillips admitting to being a pimp! Why that didn't become a bigger story, I don't know. Just for the look on the other teams faces alone, it was a moment of brilliance.
 
I thought it was a great show this week. When Simon pondered "Why are there no blacks in Strictly? Could it be possibly because they just can't dance? That's it, the problem is they've got no rhythm...", hilarious.
 
Yeah the Yank was the star of the show really. Shame most of the American guests seem to completely miss the point of the show and end up looking really uncomfortable but he took it in his stride.
 
Yeah, but this is the same guy who operatically sings about how great it is to be fucking Ben Affleck, so he's obviously got a sense of humour.

lol, really? That's bizarre, it is nice to see stars and celebs that have a sense of humour and don't take themselves to seriously. Half the stars that are on Buzzcocks look like they've got a stick up their arses.

It was part of a sketch on an American talk show. I'd spent the first few minutes wondering where I recognised him from. It's here;
 
I like that :cool:

I've got 2 questions; 1) Has the beeb in it's infinite wisdom just 'junked' the episode where Russell Brand was guest captain?

2) What is the basis of Simon's running joke about Craig David? Has there been a story, or is it just shock bollocks like Julian Clary's infamous 'fisting Norman Lamont' comment?

actually that was 3 questions.

1) Yes. Expect it to turn up on a DVD extra somewhere.

2) I think Craig Daviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid is just someone to take the piss out of. Bo Selecta done it.
 
Craig David is a walking piss take....because he takes himself so very seriously. It's about the music man...which is odd because his output staggers between utter gash and fucking terrible

He was quoted in Q magazine years ago as saying something along the lines of "My music is very important to me, i won't waste my time on irrelevant things". As they rightly pointed out, that precision beard must be pretty time consuming.

Amstell has been a breath of fresh air. I like his light hearted understanding of the situation he's in. Why would anyone be surprised by the paedos and pimps involved in the music business?
