I enjoyed waching him. He has a natural talent like Peter Kay.

I hope he goes far.

I thought he was alright but if he didn't have the personality that accompanied his disability, he wouldn't have gone through.

It's easy to dismiss the disability but I don't think you can to be honest.

No one would find him funny if he wasn't disabled. The judges were all trying to see who could laugh the hardest. It was patronising from the very start

Well said - and the oleaginous Walliams in particular is the master of patronising - if nothing else.

What does his jokes have to do with it?

Everything?? He's a comedian.

I like him a lot and hope he wins. I find him very dry and very funny. His nerves showed a bit last night but that's to be expected.

oleaginous Walliams
I've never heard that word before so I had to look it up. I presume you're going for the definition of 'Exaggeratedly and distastefully complimentary' rather than 'Rich in, covered with, or producing oil; oily or greasy'!

I didn't even smile throughout his performance, or his audition.

Take your pick!

But my preference is for #1


While you're at it, check out 'bovine', you'll find that one of the meanings fits Walliams to perfection.

You know, till you wrote that I hadn't realised that he was meant to make me smile.

Sadly, he failed - miserably.

Nowhere as funny or amusing as any one of dozens of his age group selected at random from any school in the country.
