Absolutely not. He was always one of the legends. I remember my granny and Mum used to love Strike It Lucky/Rich and that show where he went round all the shopping centres. He had a way with the public no one else did. He knew how to engage and make people laugh. He deserves to be back on the throne, the king of Saturday night telly.

He never came across as a nice person, I remember him patronizing contestants on strike it lucky, usually the older generation who went on that show.

Always thought he was the most over rated "entertainer" out there personally, and his humour simply made me cringe..... |

So depressing that the usual DS suspects need to indulge their naive armchair warrior status here.
Like so many, he struggled for years with his sexuality, whilst entertaining and performing like a consummate professional. I wonder just how many of the ever so well informed cotton-socked still living with mummy & daddy brigade who have so much vitriol to pour, will ever achieve in the way he did until the unfortunate butcher thought it would be a good idea to mix in circles which appear to have been well beyond his comprehension ? Re the injuries to the butcher chap - there is documented proof that they weren't present at the time of his departure from Mr.Barrymore's home. By all means, indulge any immature, ill-informed personal prejudices you might have, but at least get your facts right...if that's not too hard. |

Are you saying this "nobody" butcher chap, having the effrontery to associate with these "circles", was the cause of Barrymore's downfall? |

^ No. I'm saying that he was perhaps inexperienced and unused to just what would pass for normal behaviour at the type of party he attended that night.
I suspect both of the above posters knew precisely what I meant. |

NB. 'Celebs' do not have special rights. It is not a clever thing to do. If you wish to correct anything that I DID say, then please do, with your reasons........ and evidence......... for doing so. I would be interested to read that. If you cannot do that, and if you cannot avoid the improper practice of false attribution, then please do not reply to my posts at all. |

No, I didn't as you didn't say anything like that. The wording of your post infers he wasn't good enough and he was responsible for the downfall of Barrymore.

If not what are you saying? ![]() Perhaps it is common at these parties to find dead sexually violated corpses in swimming pools - although I very much doubt it. As for Barrymore behind the public facade he has proved himself to be a depressingly unpleasant man. |

I can't believe all the nasty comments about Michael Barrymore if the police had any evidence to charge him whatsoever they would have done it by now.
Despite the fact that I am a straight middle aged woman I do appreciate that the younger generation have parties involving drink and drugs and it should not matter if the host of that party was straight or gay. These late night parties usually wind down with people heading off to bed , crash out on the sofa , people calling it a night bit by bit falling asleep listening to music etc that kind of thing , sometimes the Host will go off to bed and leave his guests to enjoy themselves imagine if you went to bed and left your guests sitting around talking or swiiming or drinking but discovered that when you woke up the next morning somebody had died in your swimming pool this was not just a tragedy for the dead person it was also a tragedy for Michael Barrymore. except for holding the party he wasn't personally responsible if his guests had sex or took drugs or drank alcohol. if people drink and take drugs whilst in a swimming pool I'm not surprised somebody died . I just think it's hugely unfair that people think it was Michael Barrymore's fault when clearly the Police don't, otherwise he would've been charged. all you people criticising Michael Barrymore have no evidence whatsoever that he was personally responsible. plus all those people who don't think he was funny are trying to rewrite history he was hugely popular on many many shows on Prime Time television and to suggest he was anything less than a huge star is completely stupid |

If he's suing for wrongful arrest then he's out of time. You have six years from the wrongful arrest within which to bring a claim, if you don't then it's tough. In very rare cases this can be set aside but you need a blooming good argument as to why you didn't bring your action in time.
Barrymore had until June 2013 to bring an action following his arrest in 2007. Unless I'm missing something I genuinely can't see how he can possibly succeed. |

Yes, I thought there was a 6 year 'limitation period' for most types of claims. From memory there is some further rule about 'latent defects' whereby the 6 years only begins from the date you realise that you suffered the loss (usually goods that looked fine to begin with but later turned out to be faulty). So don't see how that would apply here unless he could argue that he only recently realised that the alleged wrongful arrest affected his career. Grasping at straws though.
