I never did get what he passed a humour!
My wife becomes very irritable whenever he’s on the telly and demands it be turned off, Brand has exactly the same effect.
He pretended to eat some human excrement on his show a few months ago… and he routinely sexually harassed his female guests. His movie show was right on the mark though…
Not gone yet, Wolfie.
Maybe not gone yet but once your book is half-price at Borders its certainly the beginning of the end. Gone from the BBC would be good enough for me and he can take Peston with him as well.
Mutley, many of his interviews were quite out of order. If I had more leisure time I would have complained myself on many occasions.
Ross was at his very best on “The Last Resort” on early Channel 4 in the days when Channel 4 was really interesting. OK, it was a UK version of the the David Letterman show, but Ross did well, and had Steve Nieve as the excellent house band. Happy days.
Since then, he has gone further and further downhill, and his TV chat show is so really cringe-making and just plain tacky at times it gets turned off. I have avoided his Radio 2 Saturday morning show for ages now (so much better when presented by Jo Brand), and although I like film, I don’t watch Film 2008 because Ross is in the chair.
He does have a talent, but needed taking down several pegs. The BBC were right to suspend him. Not sure where he will go from here, or how he will recover his career.
