God he makes me laugh even though his photo byline has him looking worryingly frowny. Makes dh laugh so much as well, sure he wouldn't particularly mind me doing the dirty with him if I were to bring back some good one-liners.

He is very funny indeed, but you have clearly never seen him on television or you would not need to ask.

southeastastra · 17/12/2007 14:48

i know what you mean (!). he is a bit spud faced though.

i reckon he's going out with that big brother girl.

CarmenerryChristmas · 17/12/2007 14:49

Oh no I think he is attractive too, and I have seen him on telly

holidaywonk · 17/12/2007 14:49

I know what you mean, he is extremely funny. I don't think I'd actually do 'im, but I can see how one would be tempted.

eeewahwoowah · 17/12/2007 14:50

which big brother girl?

festivecircus · 17/12/2007 14:50

Well, maybe in a shouldn't but would kind of a way...

southeastastra · 17/12/2007 14:50

have you seen this

ImBarryScott · 17/12/2007 14:51

Oh, I love him.
But like a brother

here he is in the flesh, for lala

southeastastra · 17/12/2007 14:51

i can't think of her name! tall blonde one

ImBarryScott · 17/12/2007 14:51

aisleyne!

holidaywonk · 17/12/2007 14:53

well-spelled barry

BBBee · 17/12/2007 14:55

i fancy him. he is not going out with ashlene is he? surely not.

Tatties · 17/12/2007 14:58

Yes I reckon he's going out with Aisleyne too

Marina · 17/12/2007 14:58

He is fantastic. I love Charlie Brooker.
so does my dh lala, perhaps we can have a Mumsnet dispensation "Charlie doesn't count"

CarmenerryChristmas · 17/12/2007 15:03

Yes actually my dp quite likes him too (but possibly not enough to let me shag him)

lalalonglegs · 17/12/2007 15:07

Love the "Charlied doesn't count" dispensation, Marina. But, if he is going out with Aisleyne - are you sure Tatties? Seems bloody unlikely couple - I think I would also need "Charlie is so filled with self-loathing and sexual psychosis that he forgets about pneumatic blonde girlfriend and slums it with unfragrant mother of two who has to dash home early to watch Property Ladder" dispensation.

i think he's the male version of what Viz terms a "borderline boiler".
apparently, your eyes say no, but your nuts say go.

MerryAnnSinglemas · 17/12/2007 15:42

he is very funny, but has alarming eyebrows

lalalonglegs · 20/12/2007 09:24

ROFL at borderline boiler so watched Screenwipe last night and the Barry Shitpeas stuff was enough to make me realise that Charlie is the stuff of my dreams (sort of) but bikini-wearing floozy holding calendar between bits was none other than Aisleyne. Tatties may be right

she's his number one friend on myspace but he said he was single in his guardian column the other week so there's hope yet ladies! the thought of him going out with her makes me feel sick! i find it faintly disturbing that he's even friends with her. he is so lovely... sigh.. and cynical.. i always find that attractive

CripleH · 28/12/2007 21:20

He wrote an article for The Guardian during the summer when him and Big Brother lass went to Glasto together. It was rather amusing as he hated camping and she had bought a tent from Argos for £9.99.

He said in that article that they were good mates and admitted that people might find that strange as he's always ranting on about how BB contestant are all shallow. Apparently he's nice a pie in real life though.

Speaking as a hetrosexual male I cannot blame ladies for fancying the Brooker, he's a funny and talented guy who doesn't take himself to seriously.

Snaf · 28/12/2007 21:29

I feel like I should, but I just don't.

V. unusual for me - I am usually a sucker for a cynical, badly-dressed spudface (cf. unseemly thoughts about Dylan Moran).

bettie27 · 29/12/2007 17:54

he is not a spud face!! yes i find it hard to believe he would go out with her, isn't she like 22 or something anyway.... seems a bit wrong on all levels really. if i could stuck in a lift with anyone it would be him.

lulu25 · 29/12/2007 18:00

would

sazzybeehomeforxmas · 29/12/2007 18:04

No one else is allowed to fancy him

He's mine!
