Whenever I've listened to him I've always found him to be unpleasant in the extreme. I know loads of breakfast jocks listen on the way into work and champion him as hilarious and "I wish I could say that!"
Well please don't, there's enough bad-spirited bitchiness in the world without it seeping through thank you.
He bores and infuriates me!”
Worse still, is his hypocrisy, in that he slags of people such as Jeff Brazier with whom he used for one of his terrible "In Conversation" programmes this morning and which I don't make a habit of listenening to.
However, I made a special effort to listen to this, due to his criticisms of him and Jade Goody, over the months/years.
