Hard to believe, that! He looked like a proper little bellend as well with those luminous green specs attached to his head and his equally laughable dickie bow.

I'm sorry, but disliking that sort of lowest-common-denominator drivel really does not make someone a begrudger. It's horrifically bad. I know Fresh Meat, Rev and Friday Night Dinner aren't to everybody's taste, but the idea that they could be deemed inferior to a man who dresses as an old woman, falls over a lot and uses the word "fuck" as a punchline... well, it's just ludicrous.

remember, the only way is Essex has a BAFTA. The awards are fairly meaningless.

People like Coldplay and voted for the Nazis. You can't trust people.

You may think it's ludicrous but millions of viewers disagree. Should you just discount their opinions because it's not your type of comedy?

I personally don't find it that funny but obviously other people do and I say fair play to them for making such a success of it.

You can't argue with the numbers - Manchester Utd, Avatar, Titanic, Adele, Billy Ray Cyrus, the Eurovison Song Contest, the Late Late Show Most people have pretty lousy non discriminating taste most of the time.
