With all this thinking about comedians (and I'm not implying that this person could be one of the dodgy ones) I've been wracking my brains trying to remember who the guy was who used to be on 8 Out Of 10 Cats/Does Countdown.

He did what Joe Wilkinson used to do; come on in the middle and be annoying. Not a contestant. He had NHS glasses, was sort of a disgusting character. Possible moustache? I've been googling and gone through IMDb but can't find him!

Again, not implying he is dodgy, just want to remember his name!

John Kearns? He has a character he's done on Cats does countdown. Wears a wig with it too. Was on S15 of Taskmaster. I don't get wrong 'un vibes from him on podcasts.

ETA oh oops not him! (and FWIW, I do think Kearns is a good egg)

Yes! Hung around Camden 2004 - around 2008 and was told to keep away from RB as he was "a bit rapey",obviously terrible phrase to use and wouldn't use it now and it was also almost said as a joke yet it was true and the people who said it meant it sincerely.

Seen some talk about Noel Fielding. I had more to do with Noel than RB and Noel was always absolutely fine. Wasted a LOT but never saw anything of concern. I was also wasted a lot too so if something came out I would of course 100% believe the victims but personally I didn't see/hear anything.

We 100% know each other 👀

Katherine said that the 5 were not thriving. Lee Mack definitely is. On loads of tv. Doubt it is him. Arguably Walliams isn’t thriving tv wise, having been let go recently. Still has books, but no tv work. Newspaper reports also say a few of them dropped out of main tv 10 years ago - Lee Hurst is a bit dodgy. Could he be a contender. Mark Lamarr also, friends with Sean Hughes. In that Guardian article on Hughes it said they both had loads of women - he disappeared too.

Not thriving - maybe John Bishop, then? He's been awfully quiet recently.

First name that popped into my head for the Hollywood A-lister who's in front of and behind the camera was Tom Cruise.

I must admit, I've never really studied him up close before today - he seriously needs a good toothbrush and an even better dentist. :D :D :D

He's definitely off my 'celebs I might snog if I were drunk enough' list.

To be honest, I don't think I have ANY celebs left on that list. I never get that drunk these days.

I met Russell Howard right before he got proper famous. I was 17. He asked if I wanted an autograph on my boobs and then go get a drink. I told him I was 17. I've never seen anyone look so frightened. He stammered he was sorry, thanked me for coming to his gig and almost sprinted away. Gutted.

Well it's a better reaction than most of them would have given ya and by that I mean others would have shown too much interest!
 
I met RB once at a book signing for Revolution in central London, I thanked him for the work he does with addicts & the homeless, as I'd been both myself. He was lovely to me & invited me to his NA meeting that evening near Trafalgar Sq, where again he was nicer than I ever imagined he'd be to a bloke he'd just met. But I totally believe the allegations against him, these scumbags have to have this duality to them, or they wouldn't get away with it for so long, I know this from my own crappy experiences. I wasn't believed 3 times concerning 2 different people, a man when I was a child, who was respected in my families church & my ex fiancee, who used to batter me, psychologically crush me & even stabbed me twice. She even had me arrested once, I'm a big man & she was a small woman, so the police are up every lie she told & basically called me scum.

Russell has had a glow up since that photo. Tan, new teeth, muscles.
Looking a bit Ellen Degeneres here

That sounds like Brian Gittins. He's in a lot of Ricky Gervais stuff, Extras, Afterlife & others.

That's a very reassuring reaction from a grown man to a teenager.
