The one where he asked the guy to remove his hat and then said 'oh have you been at a funeral for a Lego man' was bloody brilliant.

RustyParker · 24/01/2015 20:34

BakeOff I'm sure JR made a comment about lego-haired-emo-fraudster "opening the right box" when he heard about his prize money.

I missed the "Cowdenbeath" one - that sounds brilliant.

RustyParker · 24/01/2015 20:36

Oh, and I read the claimant and defendant have to sign a contract that they will agree to the decision of JR. If they don't honour the agreement though, then I suppose the claimant can only go to small claims court.

Help me Rinderettes aka devotees of Rinder, do you know how I can watch the tattoo one, what date was it on?

Todays was a classic, the young woman who at least twice flooded the business downstairs from her flat cos the silly arse ran a bath whilst blind drunk. Thankfully the claimants won.

Rinder to the young lady "Running a bath and falling asleep because you'd been on the gin all night, that could have been dangerous couldn't it?"

Young woman " I'm only 24 ain't I, I deserve a social life"

At this point I beg MN to design an emicon of classic expression.

Judge Rinder=AIBU brought to life. Grin Is it on ITV Player?

Hassled · 26/01/2015 19:06

I caught this today (off work sick) and watched about 1 minute open-mouthed before thinking "WTF is this SHITE??" and switching off. Now I see I missed TV gold and I'm going to have find it on On Demand - bugger.

NoArmaniNoPunani · 26/01/2015 19:10

Shady: Jan 13th. It's on my sky catch up but not on the itv app.

Y0rkshirePudding · 26/01/2015 19:12

I love JR. Dont get to watch it often but when I do I get totally engrossed. He absolutely cracks me up. I didnt think Judge Judy could be topped (she is terrifying!) but he's managed it with bells on

Thanks, Noarman but I think my ship has sailed re the tattoo one, I'll just have to use my imagination.

Anyone see him on Mel and Sue today? There wasn't a sufficient enough close up of his eyelashes for me to judge.

Ooops, pardon the pun Grin

NoArmaniNoPunani · 02/02/2015 21:01

It's still on itv player until 13th Feb

Instituteofstudies · 03/02/2015 19:33

I adore him. Fair, funny and his expressions are priceless. I try to get a bike in the gym near one of the two tv's so I can watch. It really makes the ordeal seem quicker and less boring.

airedailleurs · 03/02/2015 19:45

I was invited to appear on it (long story - there's a thread on mn about it)...I would have been on the first episode this year but the defendant refused to go on it, true story!

HalleLouja · 05/02/2015 09:20

I have just found out about this show. Many many years ago me and the judge were friends. He truly is funny and a good guy. Though when I knew him he hadn't come out and become friends with Benedict aka Sherlock. He is as camp as anything. I drive past his old house regularly.

BreconBeBuggered · 16/02/2015 14:48

There's a tattoo one today - don't know if it's the one that's been shown already as I don't see them all, but it's worth watching.

Only1scoop · 16/02/2015 14:50

This tattoo case is very funny....he is just so quick....

Lardylassnomore · 18/02/2015 15:04

I have been sucked in by this today...

Only1scoop · 18/02/2015 15:12

I'm feeling an addiction coming on.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 18/02/2015 15:16

It's my new guilty secret. I discovered it a couple of weeks ago when I was in bed poorly. Now if dh comes out of his office when its on I have to quickly change it over to bbc 24.

HedgehogsDontBite · 18/02/2015 15:24

I love Judge Rinder. I think the guy is amazing and can read people like an open book. The thing that won me over was his compassion and how he is totally different in how he deals with people he senses are vulnerable.

HedgehogsDontBite · 18/02/2015 15:27

My favourite episode is the more recent tattoo one. The guy tattooed a giant penis on his own leg while pissed and suing his mate for sobering up and not getting a matching penis done Grin

Only1scoop · 18/02/2015 15:33

The penis tattoo was beyond hilarious....when he discussed he would have to buy a sarong to wear on family beach holidays.

Hedgehog totally agree when you say The thing that won me over was his compassion and how he is totally different in how he deals with people he senses are vulnerable. This is really important and saves it from just being car crash TV. It is good when you see the ones who sort out their rifts and when justice is done!

But the tattoo one from Monday, WTAF?????????? It was bonkers from the word go, I mean starting with the guys wife. C'mon if you knew your husband's default setting is PISSED who in their right mind would buy him his own tattoo gun when he's not trained FGS. That's not just asking for trouble it's giving trouble a written invitation.

P.S. I loved the one with the hair extension girl who kept saying "hash tag" and calling him 'darlin'' , oh priceless, just priceless.

I think I need some JR phrases on my wall, just to cheer me up e.g

"that's not just stupid that's a whole new nadir of stupid" SmileSmileSmile

Georgina1975 · 18/02/2015 18:31
