Chivas Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 What the hell does he look like some sort of vagrant searching for his 8% Cider Whats he got on his feet ?? Looks like some sort of Blackadder Winklepickers..... 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane Dough Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 I love Ricky and I love nearly everything he's done. Some of the episodes of Extras are right up there with the best comedy of all time. Binge watching Afterlife was one of the highlights of 2019. But this was a bit too bitter for my liking for an occasion like this. Cutting yes, scathing perhaps but I'd rather lol than relish the celebs feeling that awkward.

It wasn't his appearance that shocked the glitterati but his acerbic comments that stunned them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post animalmagic Posted January 11, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 11, 2020 He is what he is. Brilliantly observant, pithy and accurate. He didn't, to my knowledge, say anything inaccurate or hadn't been uttered by others. He always looks glum, and never bothers about cutting a sartorially elegant figure...… just comfort. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orton Rd Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 so are comedians expected to be laughing and smiling every time they are seen in public with cameras pointed at them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought his speech was funny, no need for him to be glum. Liked the 'no memorium' joke, 'not diverse enough, only white people died this year'. As for the way he looks, I'm thinking pretty good for someone almost 60 years old. He's a lot slimmer and fitter than he's been in the past.

TKDfella Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I am not a fan of this comedian but that's not a criticism it is simply choice. His brand of comedy made me smile once or twice but never made me laugh. I did watch some of his GGA speech and to me it seemed that he was really fed up with the whole thing but if that was true why did he not refuse to host the GGA in the first place. Reminded me of a schoolboy tactic that if you don't want to do something, do it badly or embarrass others and you won't get chosen again. I don't know if he was telling the truth or not since I don't really follow cinema very much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAMHERE Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 POParatsy make a lot of people glum, might be what they are best at. I can't hardly think of anyone with better smiles than the Harry & Markle couple; yet they appear glum in many pictures. The photo hounders are overboard.

ezzra Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Such is the comedian's life, ever searching for new material to please the crowd and sometimes at the expense of others and the fear of bombing at the microphone is a real concern for them, people want to see comedians as long as the jokes are on other's expense, they don't like it when it hit home and hit hard...

Gave the Hollywood elites the talking to they so badly needed and deserved only to be given a fashion critique. Shallowness meets depth, not in Hollywood it seems. Walt Disney / Mr. Rogers stayed character. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
