Karaoke

Possibly the one with connections to DW?

A family motor vehicle that begins with 'C'? I'm stumped.
Will probably realise as soon as I click 'post'.

@Theyspunawebforme
@DW's sidekick?!

@PaperWalkAndTalk I would argue that it absolutely CAN & DOES happen on a weekend

@Nevermind202020 Ah ok got it

I was thinking car brands then realised it wasn't a brand they were referring to.

However I don't think it's him, I think it's the US based one people are meaning?

I think it's actually reasonably easy to deduce who most of them are likely to be just from who has left long standing work for suspiciously vague reasons (eg DW )

No idea which comedian doesn't hate the tories!

Jeremy Clarkson now?!

God i hate him.
I hope it's him.

I’m pretty sure a well known cricket (as in the insect) has been named after him.

Or vice versa….

JD? Although it’s pretty far-fetched to describe him as a comedian

Oh I see!

I can’t imagine that though….I have never picked up creepy vibes from him.

As long as it’s not MM or LE (both stand up comedians I love).

I think they mean the one who likes prawn bhuna, lamb bhuna, chicken bhuna...I can't see it myself.

no one's making a 90 min doc about consensual sex
..................
To be fair, that's exactly what Channel 4 usually fills a lot of their schedules with.

too true 😄
They have positively encouraged and flown the flag for kink since they began, so a massive dollop of blatant hypocrisy if the Dispatches is about kink 'gone wrong'.
They mainstreamed it and made out it was normal and those who didn't partake were somehow repressed! Won't be watching Ch4 again.

JC - his best mate is called Gavin.

I am still not convinced I have JR correct, although the one I am thinking of does have an unpleasant connection to RB.

I think people are just looking for people who have links to Brand, but he's bound to have loads of comedian mates and we wouldn't necessarily know who.

Hopefully not, MM used to really annoy me but I've come to really appreciate his humour over the years!

I love his “Send to All” segments 😂

Noooooooooooo

God I hope not.

I’m with you though, I cannot imagine that at all!

@MeinKraft Who is that?

What is it with the initials? If you're afraid of legal ramifications of speculating, don't. I'd be surprised if giving enough hints to explain who you're referring to (initials or more like 3 wheel van, or DW's sidekick) without writing the name is going to protect you.

I'm not sure how we've become a society where one establishment arm (MSM) can goad the public into speculating about famous people and other arms (Police, CPS, Judiciary) can apparently then prosecute for it. Kind of makes me angry. Channel 4 are so holier than thou, they should be ashamed of the way they've used a trojan horse to promote this horseshit.

I’m not bothered about any of these men, and if they’re sexual predators who have raped women then they deserve all they get.

The only comedian I am secretly praying doesn’t get a mention is Bob M because that would mean my entire faith in humanity was lost forever.

It couldn’t be Bob. I wouldn’t want to live in a world where it was Bob.

Is RB still friends with NG(Brother-feuding Manc musician)? He always struck me as being basically a decent guy. Motormouth notwithstanding.

I feel this way about GN - a lovely Irish guy who I have found hilarious for the last 20+ years he’s been on TV.

My faith in human nature would be crushed if I ever found out that he was involved in something really bad 😢
