    I watched that programme and was surprised at the amount of gay and lesbian people who were among the critics, explaining why people were annoying. Having watched the whole (very long) programme, I would say that the GLBT point of view was maybe over-represented. The fact that some comments are taken out of the whole is not representative. How about the extremely camp fellow who said "he is the kind of person who makes gay people homophobic". OMG, I am defending the BBC!:eek:

    Thats just appaling. Did the BBC not learn anything after what happened with Russel Brand last year. Thats just not even funny.

    What's even funnier to me, is that I never hear about Samantha Ronson.

    So I really have no idea why she's on the list... huh...

    You'd think the BBC would be a bit better than to allow those comments to be shown. Perhaps they'll learn to be more careful what they put on from this.

    Yeah, that doesn't sound light-hearted to me.

    And Ron Jeremy's comments are not a surprise at all. Nor are any of them the least bit amusing.

    I've never liked Ron Jeremy anyway, no matter how far he can bend.
