Why Mr McIntyre has reached the heights of popularity that he has... indeed how he has managed to make a career in "comedy" at all... is a mystery beyond rational human explanation. He must have some unseen yet sinister hold over the population of the UK.

Yep, he's a total wanker for that. I thought he would be above that 1970's style Paddy Whackery. Bring on the Irish dancers and take the piss out of them. At that point i had to quit watching. :roll:

A few years ago, his posh take on everyday subjects was very funny such as describing trying to overtake a slow lorry or looking at the cars stuck in a traffic jam on the other side of the motorway. But nothing new since then.

That video is complete shite.

This video is just completely fucked up. It is beyond belief for me, how the people in the audience can find it funny at all. I mean, Pixie Lott was quite okay, she did a good job, but this prick (didn't know him before) is just ridiculous. I've got nothing against parodies and stuff, they can indeed be quite brilliant, but this was just plain crap.
Rather be a waster than a wanker.

Huh. Whiny McWhinypants says that the Pogues banned his rendition:

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sh ... -joke.html

Common sense and good taste didn't stop him, but a phone call from "their people" and he's "banned from doing that joke." Jeez. Grow a pair, Mr. McWhinypants. And also, anyone care to speculate on who "a particular member of the Pogues camp didn't see the funny side?"

I'm willing to bet not a single member of The Pogues objected to his "version". Why bother when there are plenty of other, funnier comics willing to go into battle on the record's behalf. Every five year old in the UK knows every single word of that song, as I saw at first hand when several thousand of them sang along with Keating's version, correcting his regrettable lapse of taste for him on that whole haggard/blackguard thing.................

Just trying to work out how exactly it's possible for The Pogues, or "their people" to actually ban a joke. Unless they have powers that any dictator worth his/her salt would dream of. Still, it gives whatever-his-name-is a bit more publicity, I suppose.

Dammit, DzM, you've just made me go on the Scum's website. :evil:

That'll teach me to do late night night postings.

I do apologize to any and all for in any way implying that Whiny McWhinypants' story, as reported by the Sun, had any truth behind it. The article is linked to for the humor value, nothing more. I do apologize for making anyone visit the site unintentionally, or for implying that anyone's people actually reached out to Mr. McWhinypants with a cease-and-decist.
