To find Louis Spence hilarious.

I'm sure a lot of it is an act but I find his highly camp dramatics pretty hilarious. I imagine him going around in his everyday life peppering what he does with high kicks, exaggerated face pulling and biting his fist etc and it just makes me laugh Blush. I'm sure it's probs not very pc of me to enjoy his daft antics but I just do...

I like him -but my close friend is exactly the same so I am biased!

RainbowJack · 21/06/2017 18:08

Oh god. He is the one 'sleb' I despise with a passion.

Will actively change the channel. I can barely stand to look at him.

DramaInPyjamas · 21/06/2017 18:09

I used to find him funny but it got a bit boring very quickly. There's only so many times you can laugh at a man jumping on a table thrusting his bum around.

To be fair I don't seek him out to watch but if I happen across a program with him in it I enjoy it. I see he is on the new Crystal Maze... i think Richard Ayoade will have a field day with him!

He didn't seem to endear himself in CBB

Longdistance · 21/06/2017 18:13

He's going to be on the Crystal Maze on Friday night, if you want your Louis fix.

No I fully suspect he is capable of being awful! (Although I didn't see him in that!)

Is Louis Spence the new Crystal Maze host!? I thought it was Stephen Merchant

RebootYourEngine · 21/06/2017 18:15

Well thats The Crystal Maze ruined for me. I am with Jack, i will change the channel when he is on.

JeReviens · 21/06/2017 18:16

I'd cross the M25 butt naked in a snowstorm to avoid him.

No he's not the host it's Richard Ayoade isn't it?!

He's not the host is he? If not, I'll give his episode a miss and watch the others.

I was just thinking the other day I'm so glad he's no longer on TV.

I am alone of this thread with all the Louis haters!

Ooooh. Loved Richard Ayoade and David Mitchell together on 'Was it Something I Said?'

redfairy · 21/06/2017 18:20

Well I quite like his antics and he has the most beautiful home. I think it was shown on Through the Keyhole or something similar. So tasteful I could hardly believe it was his Grin

I do also love Richard. Does that absolve me!?

DoggoslothladyA · 21/06/2017 18:22

I find him absolutely hilarious 😂😂

PixiePopPops · 21/06/2017 18:22

He was very moody and mean on CBB. Definitely an act.

DonaldStott · 21/06/2017 18:23

You're not alone Earless. I find him hilarious. He seems so fun.

DurhamDurham · 21/06/2017 18:24

Can't stand the man, he's so false and annoying.

Preferable to Andrew Stone but that goes without saying Grin

Longdistance · 21/06/2017 18:25

Richard is the host, and Louis Spence is taking part in the Crystal Maze for charity, as a one.

A relief to those who don't like Louis.

Longdistance · 21/06/2017 18:26

As a one off 🙄

Sweatingcobbles · 21/06/2017 18:27

I've met him accidentally and he was really lovely and much quieter and nothing like his TV persona

BendydickCuminsnatch · 21/06/2017 18:30

Ah I love him too! Find Richard Ayoade too try-hard but do like David Mitchell.

MissionItsPossible · 21/06/2017 18:51

YABU but that's because I think he is an annoying buffoon Grin

Sorry to hijack the thread but I am looking forward to The Crystal Maze and saw an advert for it and then it was followed by "starting with some celebrity specials". WHY does everything have to have celebrity specials these days or just turn them into celebrity shows like All Star Family Fortunes? I wouldn't mind if it was genuine celebrities like The Beckhams or Adele but I don't care to watch Z-listers like that girl from TOWIE or Louie Spence from Pineapple Dance Studios on anything!
