    One of the funniest pieces of TV so far this year. From the moment he came on and the first joke about the Ordinary Boys you could see how angry he was. Loved how everyone kept taking the piss out of him after he had left, even madge from neighbours got involved.

    Quality Tv

    Simon Amstell is a genius, I loved him in his Popworld days and I love him 1000x more after that. Legend.

    Gah, i need to see this now, anyone know when its repeated?

    ETA: Fuck it, I'll find it on youtube sooner or later

    It's repeated on Saturday night, I think. :)

    Rumour has it that it was a set-up.

    At least that's what Holy Moly seems to think, I couldn't possibly comment ;) [/lawyer insert]

    By the way Preston was looking i cant see how it could of been set up. He kept twitching at everything Simon said and you could just see the anger building up. Plus the way how Simon said "Preston, please, come on" shows imo that it wasnt set up, if it had been simon would of been more prepaired and would of had a one liner set up. Bill Bailey came into his element the line about "he thinks he's been evicted was classic" and getting the guy from the audience was even better.

    If and its a big if it was set up (i dont think it was) then Preston should go into films because it was a great piece of acting, his facial expressions, when simon was laying into him

    Ohhhhhhhh. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
    OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, GOD NOEL.
    I think I just orgasmed. That raven haired man oozes cool from every pore. I wish he oozed into my toilet parts so I would forever have a reason to be in his life. A gorgeous little Becky/Noel child. A hilarious, eccentric junkie child. Fuck yeah.

    ETA - Donny Tourette is a prize TWAT. And I love Simon. I would very much like a threesome with him and Noel, ta.

    Getting another "Preston" from the audience was brilliant. It might have been better if the guy was more of an extrovert, but then it would have looked more like a setup.

    I didn't see it but I think I read about it a while back.

    I actually think more of him for walking out - although I think I would have more interesting conversations with a daffodil than with Preston or Chantelle, in the real world no one with any loyalty would sit there like a chump and laugh along as their signifigant other was being patronised and ridiculed right in front of them. Fair enough the nature of the show is to take the piss - but if you're a panellist you can defend yourself and Chantelle wasn't even there!

    I remember watching a late night music-y programme years ago presented by Jo Whiley and Jay Kay was one of the guests. He must've been with Denise VO at the time, and Jo and one or two of the other guests made some awful comments about her throughout -- all along the lines of "oooh we're such cool musos and your girlfriend is a dumb bimbo. Even better that she's not here to defend herself so we can make ourselves look big and clever with some cheap shots". Her so-called boyfriend just sat there and smirked. I've disliked him ever since the spineless little twerp.

    As for Simon Amstell - he used to be kind of amusing but now I just think he's bit of a smug nerd. He definitely grates. Come back, Mark Lamaar, all is forgiven!

    Mark Lamaar wasn't that good in my opinion.
    Simon Amstill is hilarious, first he makes Britney cry and storm off on Popworld now he has made Preston storm off too.

    It was an hilarious show, Amstill didnt even manage to ridicule Chantelle, i mean all he did was attempt to read from her autobiography and never got through it all because Preston stormed off before he got anywhere with it.

    As for Donny Tourette, his antics and attitude and general Twat-ish-nous has really annoyed me in that nails on a chalk board way and i just can't be bothered with him or his band as a result.

    Beat me to it!

    He really can't take a joke, can he?
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I thought it was so funny! I sort of felt for Preston a little bit, I mean if my husband went on a show and just sat there all the way through while the host was taking the piss out of me I'd be well annoyed, maybe he felt like he had to stand up for Chantelle.

    That said he should have known what he was in for, everybody gets the piss taken out of them on Never Mind The Buzzcocks, and that he'd be in line for a grilling since he DID go on big brother and marry someone off it.

    Gonna watch the Donny Tourettes ones when I get a minute. I love Simon Amstell, I wish he was still on popworld.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Did Simon Amstill make fun of Chantelle much? I mean, did she really get the piss taken out of her that much? I didnt think so, i thought it was mostly jokes at Preston's expense.

    From Holy Moly:
    Extraordinary Ploys

    Stop the clocks! Could it be that the fairytale romance of the century is over? Anvil-faced Ordinary Boys front-cock Preston has been photographed with his ex, and it appears that they are still very much in contact.

    His management realised that such pictures could lead some to believe that his marriage is a sham and purely a means for a talentless nobody (and Chantelle) to make a bit of dosh while the going is good. The management put their heads together and hatched a Machiavellian plot.

    "Right Preston, you're on that 'Never Mind The Buzzcocks' tonight. It might just happen that they have a go at Chantelle or something. If they do, have a strop to show how much she means to you. That'll fool the world!"

    Several hours later, Preston 'storms' off the set after a light-hearted jibe about his wife. Hardly Heathcliffe, is he?

    What a cock.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    The only thing I gleaned from that Holy Moly thing is that if there is any truth to all that then his ex is the stupidest cow in the world -- sneaking in and half inching that title from his missus.

    Those links where funny, I loved the Donny Tourette episode, I was nearly doubled up from laughing so much.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I don't think it's "funny". I think it is a waste of time that could be used on more questions, eg bringing the intros round back to 3 again.

    Finally watched the Preston thing last night. How anyone can think that was real is beyond me. Talk about overreaction. Twat.
