Huey (Fun Loving Criminals) acts up

    Huey from Fun Loving Criminals making sure that it's the final time he's asked on to Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

    I must say, I didn't see the whole show (and of course much more would have been recorded) but I think he was acting way out of order.

    Play the game man!!

    Phil Jupitus looks rightly pissed off at the end (Huey tries to kinda make it up to him) before walking off.

    What do you think?

    EDIT: On mature reflection, we can all have off days, just unfortunate for him, his off day is recorded on tv.

    Liza & Huey's Pet Nation?

    He's loco.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 868 ✭✭✭Gerry91


    But like you I didn't see the whole show, so he must have surely been wound up earlier, as it's not even the "scooby snacks" lyrics that originally make him mad, he's completely p1ssed off right from the beginning of the vid

    But he's a complete tool here, no doubt about it, and I wouldn't mind I love the FLC, and used to think he was one of the coolest guys on the planet :p

    Hosts are muppets tbh but smashing a glass on national tee vee makes Huey look like a even bigger muppet.

    Who the guy who broke the mug or the guy asking the questions?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,038 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    that show was great when they had some real music stars as guests


  • Posts: 24,867 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Heard before that he's an angry man.

    Didn't he start on Damon Albarn for trying to give him a hug in some nightclub?

    Huey Morgan

    Thought Jordan (guy asking questions) came across well throughout to be fair

    He's an aggressive arsehole at the best of timed anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,495 ✭✭✭✭Billy86


    Tuned in literally right as they began that segment - bizarre, really. That could well be the end of him - he's been living on being a 'cool guy' for a long, long time since FLC have only had one semi-relevant song in 15 or so years. His stock has been low for a good while anyway, my guess is apart from a quick question or maybe even chat show appearance off the back of this, we never hear from him again.

    He used to drink in Eamonn Dorans back in the day and i found him to be nothing but pleasant everytime he was there.

    I really wish Simon Amstell was still the host for that one, but in fairness to young Master Swizzle Sticks, he retorted well.

    Never liked the FYC, always nice to see "cool" guys looking and feeling stupid


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,528 ✭✭✭foxyboxer


    He agrees (for a fee no doubt*) to go on a show (which he's been on NINE times before) and which has a reputation for ripping the piss out of the guests and then he decides to throw a hissy fit. Cue people (like me) googling him. All pre-planned no doubt.

    Free publicity, yayyyyyyyy!!!

    Why because he smashed a mug :pac: FFS he didn't rape anyone.

    I bet he wouldn't have done that if Mark Lamarr was still hosting.

    Didn't he own the pizza place that was next-door-but-basically-in-the-pub?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,002 ✭✭✭Seedy Arling


    The show finished when Mark Lamarr stopped being on it.

    He's a pretty decent actor too, probably where he sees his career in the future

    Is that the lead singer from the Fine Young Cannibals?!? Put on a bit of weight hasn't he?

    Yup, he owns/has a share in DiFontaine's on Parliament Street in Dublin across from the Porterhouse too I believe.

    Ha no, but people won't be very interested in having him on their show on the back of this behaviour. Maybe for the next two weeks or so while people are talking about it, but once that is gone hosts and such will sour on him altogether is my guess.

    He's not Mark Wahlberg, he doesn't have anything relevant in the last 15 years to bring him back for.

    Yeah him and Dermot Doran went in on that, We used to eat all the leftover slices at the end of the night with free pints:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,300 ✭✭✭✭razorblunt


    He lobbed the gob on one of the MTV presenters years ago (in the days where MTV had that black leather chair against the white background), Natalie Cassidy is it?

    Don't think she took it too well.

    That show stopped being funny a long time ago, didn't realise it was still being made. The hosts, well there so zany, no one knows what initially upset him. I'm sure we've all been in fowlers at the best of times, just not caught on camera.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,009 ✭✭✭Tangatagamadda Chaddabinga Bonga Bungo


    He's no Preston. He's 'famous' because he was on Big Brother I'll have you all know.

    Kind of a draw between guest and hosts, I thought. Simon Amstell would have run away in flapping terror, yet somehow skewered him with a backwards glance.
