my favourite part about Greg Davies is how easy it is to make him laugh. Even when he's doing a bit, he has no qualms about breaking when someone jokes back. It's actually super sweet

Greg just looks like he gives good hugs. Maybe because he's the size of a bear, but he just gives off that kind of vibe

[@sy2see]

The way it's possible to describe a man who tells a story about sucking his own cock as 'wholesome'..... I mean, you're not wrong, but it just seems weird, somehow. 🤣

Definitely!

[@gwinnellheald8592]

100%

[@emilyhopkins3989]

THATS WHAT I THOUGHT

[@BobbyLCollins]

Could be his friend "Tony," aka "Bowl of Cheese." I'm not sure if or how Russell Howard would know him, though. Rhod Gilbert is probably a safer bet.
