I didn't know he was Scottish, I didn't know he thought he was a comedian, I didn't know he was once young.

Well, if you didn't know he was once young then you are spectacularly stupid.

He was spectacularly shit. I wonder whether he regrets the Prince Charles/Hitler routine now…

There are lots of people that were never young, it's not me that is spectacularly stupid. For proof see Jacob Rees Mogg.

I'm not sure this was how you meant this thread to go OP but thank you so much for starting it anyway 😂😂😂

@MrsRobinsonsHandprints

In fairness Veni I have no idea why your response has been deleted. This was hardly a serious thread

I hate it when I'm not drunk enough for the thread.

Mayor sadly being drunk wasn't a pre requisite of watching channel 5. However it is preferable.

I didn't realise my post had been deleted.

Thank you for letting me know.

Show quote history

Meanwhile, in other news, we have the Labour beer train. Oh dear, the lying party..fancy that.

I did not watch said programme. Though I remember his appearances on 'yoof' tv in the late 80s.
