Justin F***ing Fletcher

AIBU to switch the TV off every time his smug f*ing face appears, even though DC seems to love him?

Justin's house, Mr Tumble, Gigglewhatevers and just when you think it is safe, he appears singing happy birthday. Enough already, Fletcher! Take your spotty bag and Foxtrot Oscar!

I absolutely adore him. I have to leave work before a specific time to make sure I get home to watch him. My child is s teenager and thinks my crush on Justin is very weird.

Children with disabilities were the last section of the home audience which were not being represented on telly. He fixed that and for that I love him.

Children with disabilities are like everyone else and watch telly like everyone else and need to see themselves in the telly LIKE EVERY ONE ELSE DOES.

Thank you Justin.


^^THIS.

The guy should get a knighthood for the brilliance he's done with SEN kids. I love him,

and Scoop I miss Cliff Tumble too! he was my fave, .

DCS fave is Aunt Polly on SS.
We both love Robert on Justins house.
and DCS fave on gigglebiz is Dina Lady, mines Keith Fit and the farmer with his 'ooar ooar' talk!

I just don't understand why Justin Fletcher would ever be Justin Fletcher when he could be Lord Tumble!?

Robert the Robot is the voice of (new) Fireman Sam.

I like him.

Mainly for that Mary Berry character on Gigglebiz who stuffs her face with all the baked goods. He's very good at keeping a straight face whilst shoving a chocolate eclair in there with a delicate pinky.

See also: That Widow Twanky Tumble whatever her name is. The way she pronounces Tumble as Tum-bu-el cracks me up. Very Hyacinth Bucket.

Blimey he's younger than I thought!

I had a vivid dream once that I was starring in a very serious BBC drama with him and he won loads of awards for his acting in that role. V strange.

I couldn't stand ANY of CBeebies. So glad they now prefer Adventure Time, the Simpsons, Spongebob etc.

But then I bet all the Justin haters can't get enough of Topsy & Tim rest assured that I can't stand them either and don't get me started on their mother...

Go Jetters and Octonauts are the best, closely followed by The Clangers. Now there is some decent kids TV.

I recently went on a makaton training course for my job, the woman who taught us works for the makaton charity. She told me that one of her co-workers is the woman that stands behind the camera signing.. and he copies! I felt a bit miffed that he doesn't know makaton.

Thinking about it.... Another dislike string was added to Justin's bow when I saw him on JUstins house be hind the scenes video on CBeebies FB page...

He was still being a character, happy, silly... False. And it made me feel all Confused because people who always seem to be playing a character do... I wonder what he's REALLY like?!

Hang on jess, TRURO?

I've never heard anyone with an accent like that from Truro before!

On another matter, I have just discovered those twins on Operation Ouch. Now THEY are worth watching...

LOVE Justin here. The work he has done for children with SEN and for those who don't is immeasurable.

Will not hear a word against him.

Nina and the Neurons, and Mr Bloom, however... don't get me bloody started

"But then I bet all the Justin haters can't get enough of Topsy & Tim"

Fuck no! Urgh. Awful programme. If you can't stand it, Hurrah for Gin has made a brilliant version of the episode we all want to see. It is hilarious!

See I've read on Sleb threads on here that he isn't that nice in RL and is completely different on camera. I've seen it said more than once so who knows.
