im 50/50 about this...yes keith lemons world tour and celeb juice are funny as but lemonaid was shockingly bad and a few other tv appearances lately have also been pretty dire...fingers crossed its good
i suppose to be fair, Lemonaid was prime time so he didn't really have a lot of scope to be 'himself'.
My god!!!
Just seen the trailer for this at the cinema.
It's looks absolutely awful, I almost watched through the cracks in my fingers........and believe it or not I like Keith Lemon.
Why do British comedians/comedy character actors think these films are a good idea?
Watched this last night. It wasn't the train wreck that it looks actually - more of a minor shunt though
Only really laugh out loud funny in two places for me. The rest of it raised the odd snigger or smile, but that was about it. I think if you're a fan of Celebrity Juice, as I am, you'll probably be able to sit and watch it, but don't expect a laugh riot.
Surely Leigh Francis cannot keep the Keith Lemon persona going for much longer.
I prefer Avid Merrion anyway.
In some ways I can't blame him for keeping it going. It is getting him regular work with ITV 2 and now a film but I never liked this character from the early days of him on Big Brother and for me it has just gone downhill from that low point back then.
I also know what just because I don't find someone funny doesn't mean that other people don't. I am sure if it wasn't a ratings success for ITV they would have pulled it by now so Leigh must be doing something right.
Least he is a million times better than Simon Brodkin's chracter Lee Nelson. An out of date stereotype of a chav and of a fat person. Yawn.

Or a sign that the people who like Keith Lemon have gone to see the film ..
