i can do a quick one fast and dirty!
there was a wrong link but i updated it — sorry about that! and thank you as well!!!
howdy also! 1) ur sooooo cute thank you angel i’m glad it helps you! and 2) i did!!! perhaps this is an unpopular opinion but richard isn’t perfect for all panel shows — in fact, i think cats does countdown is sometimes his weakest tv work. that said i really think he’d be suited for taksmaster. that kind of bewildered but intrigued way he can be when he doesn’t completely loathe something would be pretty great and work well with greg, i think; plus richard + alex = awkward cute overload, let’s be honest hehehe... ofc he’s so in demand, especially with crystal maze and all, but i hope they can make it happen in the future! i have my fingers crossed for a couple people who nnnnnneeeeeeedddddd to be on the show...claudia...ed gamble...i’m watching you alex...*cocks finger guns*...
ps. i got your ask about bakeoff but i’m making a bigger post about it so ty for your patience! ❤️ @krablord
that makes me.......indescribably happy. but i also think he’s actually pretty nice on tv in a ways we overlook. he laughs a lot and claps often for other comedians, asks them questions and encourages their gags/bits. he tends to give his partners many chances to speak and even outshine him, like johnny and bob and roisin. and he’s always so nice to rachel and susie!!! so even though he can be a little acerbic to jimmy or pretend to be grumpy i think you can tell he’s actually a decent bloke :’)
i don’t think you need to live in the uk to know he’s going to hell
um what about this looks dumb to you
i think it’s nice to hear you’re sympathising so much with him anon... as talented as i think he is, and as much as i respect him as a comedian, it’s hard for me to be an actual apologist for how things have been recently (and not so recently sometimes). his mental health explains his behaviour but it doesn’t excuse it. he's aware of how hard things can get for himself, so i can only hope he can read his own warning signs; he certainly talks about them like he can... these things take so much time to learn to manage, so of course i hope he’s already on that journey. he seems to have a strong emotional support system and obviously has the financial means to seek help — i hope he’s taking advantage of them x
unfortunately they don’t generally release that information until a few weeks before premiere :( they’re still in the process of recording the 13th series... my guess is september at the latest!
this bbc article explains best, but tldr is that the episode featured heidi allen, a former conservative and current change uk mp, and that it was “inappropriate” to feature a politician on the show during the european elections bc it didn’t allow for “equal representation” of political views. because nigel farage had just appeared on question time, bbc thought it would be inappropriate to air hignfy with heidi allen as it would be too many conservative politicians on their programmes in a row. then they sent out this salty tweet that i thought was a little tactless:
don’t get me wrong, i’m not out canvassing for more conservative exposure, but this whole thing was a shit show
of course i’m happy they’re such good friends and i’ve been a big fan of them both for a long time x
i wish i did anon but that’s a tricky one! i recommend you go here and make a request (here’s a link to the episode page you can provide)
sometimes it feels like we’re drowning in fancy white boys! *sends up a small prayer of apology to ed gamble, rhys james, ivo graham, etc* did you see him on roast battle? i’ve never seen plebs but i’d like to!!
on one of those corners of the interwebs with one of those download-y programme things u know? 😇
