Would you be saying that if it wasn't someone from Eastenders?

I have heard worse said on here about actors. People on here taking the moral high ground make me laugh.
And people who incessantly make everything about "Oooh, them Eastenders fans. Grrrrr!!!" make me laugh.

You're embarrassing yourself.

Just jealous he didn't get her muff, jealousy is bad thing Mr Davro.

What does it matter?

I think most, if not all would agree that it was totally unproffesional and nasty on his part no matter which soap the actress was a part of.

Honestly Last Request give it a rest. It's getting embarassing.
Calm Down. You hear comedians say much worse on stage about different kinds of people in sociality.

Its off the cuff comment that is being blown out of all proportion on DS as per usual.

Anyone been to the Bob Hope Theatre? I have (not to see Davro) It is tiny, they do a lot of amateur dramatics there

Not exactly a venue for a 'celeb' (nice place though if your mate wants to drag you along to see their daughter doing Alice in Wonderland or something)

Finally somebody who gets it.

So amusing these DS users who criticize Davro for what he said and yet have constantly called Shirley/Linda about her looks and now trying to worm out of it with feeble excuses.

Nice double standards.

He has made numerous comments about people's looks on here so is completely hypocritical to be making the comments he did

I think a lot of us 'get it'. We all know about stand up comics and their routines, especially those of us old enough to remember the 70s comics. I don't have a problem with coarseness, insults as part as a satnd up act. But, davro was not employed on EE as a stand up, he was employed as an actor and therefore should treat that period of his career with the professionalism expected of that industry (acting) not his other (stand up). I'm sure plenty of actors bitch in private but it is actually quite rare to have one publicly slag off another, especially about their looks.

I don't think it is nice for social media to comment adversely on actors (or anyones) looks but I do think it is worse for a colleague who knows them professionally and probably personally to some extent to do it.

Maybe the morality if skewered but I think it is ver different me going on record to say I think a celebrity looks a mess than it would me to post a comment on say Facebook about a friend or colleague.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's p'd off that comedians/presenters from around the same time - Bradley Walsh/Brian Conley etc are still going (and becoming just as popular all over again) whereas he had a part in a popular BBC soap and STILL nothing came of it.

What a nasty little man.

Nice generalisation.

All of the people who are saying what he said was nasty attack Linda's looks do they?

No they don't.

Quote me where I said "all the people"

As for Last Request, he/she may have called Linda and other soap stars some horrible things related to their looks. I don't agree with that, but at least he/she won't start moaning when somebody else does the same.

How cringe worthy are some individuals trying to stir it with EE fans just because they can't accept that not everyone dislikes it.

as Elsa says Let it go, Let it go!

I always feel like this when I see certain posts.

I never mentioned Last Request to you.

You said ""these DS users" as though everyone defending Linda Henry was having double standards.

You can take each poster who did and prove that can you?

Exactly. I can't pretend to have checked every post every user has made but I do know from the general tone of their posts that Lotty27 and Collins1965 that have expressed their distaste At Davro's comments are not in the habit of commenting negatively on actors looks and are not being hypocritical. IndEed they are 2 of the most 'adult' posters on thi site and it is rather offensive to tar them with the 'hypocrites, you've said worse' brush.

Couldn't remember him & looked him up on Wiki. Then it dawned on me: he ice skated a bit, made dinner for some other B-list wannabes, and never won a challenge on an impersonation programme. Wouldn't give his comments a second thought; just a nobody with a real talent for knowing what not to say.

Linda, I'll have a pint & a fag with you any day.

Hence why I changed paragraph when talking about Last Request.

Yes "these DS Users" not all. They know who they are and I won't go down the naming users route.

Yes I could prove it if I really wanted to, but won't go to such an effort.

Agreed.

Linda seems a nice person and doesn't deserve to be name called like that.

The only good thing about this is he will never come back to EE!
