I was lucky enough to get 4 tickets to the recording of Brian Blessed's episode. Absolutely wonderful, a night out to remember forever! We were fortunate that we were all in the front row. 2 hours after the recording started the producer had to stop it, because there was a queue of taxis outside the studio for people who had booked them in advance. My ears are still ringing. Best. Episode. Ever.

It’s a shame that I didn’t live in London or wherever he’s the MP for. After his appearance on that episode I genuinely would’ve voted for him. He wasn’t thin-skinned like most MPs: he could not only take a joke but dish it out too. And I respect that.

Boris has been playing the game for a long time. Purposefully messed up hair every morning, little stumbles here, weird rants, humiliating photo ops... everything to make him seem goofy and unthreatening. Actually he created a persona to ward off any criticism and move easily into power. Just like the clown emperor over the pond it worked like a charm. Wanna implement something unpalatable? Just do or say a silly thing the same day and the criticism of the first thing will be drowned. The masses and the media eats it up and his friends in politics supports him all the way because they know its an act and they all win. You know its been so successful that he could be honest about the act tomorrow and no one would believe him.

@susi-emily6 ай бұрын
