Brian Blessed On Loose Women...

[trt]

I had the programme on in the background, so when he came on it was obvious I would hear him.

What do people see in him, ok he is a good actor but when he is on chat shows or similar, he is stupid, loud mouthed, and thinks everybody enjoys his shouting, spluttering liquid in your face.

Naomi - ////I am willing to bet that this is simply a created persona that he puts on like a suit when he goes to work. //

Of course it is. He's an actor. //

That's not quite what I meant.

All actors can 'be' other people, that's the definition of what they do. But the vast majority are themselves off camera.

My point is that Brian Blessed 'acts' an off-screen persona as well - the bombastic shouty man we all know so well. But I believe that in private, with his family and friends, he is someone else again, quiet and not at all 'on' because no-one could bear that 24/7 - probably including him!

That's what I said ... at least I thought I did.

You are making unfounded assumptions about the circumstances of Brian Blessed's public and private home life.

It is not hard to believe he will be something like this.

[murraymints]

like him or not at 80 years young he is a remarkable person !

Talbot - //You are making unfounded assumptions about the circumstances of Brian Blessed's public and private home life. //

Acknowledged - but I am not suggesting anything other - and your point is?

[-Talbot-]

My point is you have double standards.

[Ratty2E]

If you watched his 'who do you think you are' episode or anything where hes talking about a serious subject then you'd see a different side to him. Being shouty is his gimmick and what gives him a lot of his TV work.

[-Talbot-]

So now when someone disagrees with you or pulls you up on your blatant double standards they are looking for a spat... lol.

If I were looking for a spat it would take another posters help to achieve that aim.

[-Talbot-]

And he is back determined not to have a spat.

Sounds like you are issuing another veiled threat, andy.

[-Talbot-]

That is of course you perogative but I will make my point clear regardless.


andy-hughes
Where has mikey said he was invited into their home?

You are making unfounded assumptions about the circumstances of this interface.


--------------
Why (only yesterday) tell me I am making 'unfounded assumptions' (it turns out I wasn't) then the next day make ' unfounded assumptions' about Brian Blessed and not expect to get challenged on it?

Double standards I would say.

[mikey4444]

Bloody hell !...what happened ?

[-Talbot-]

Intriguing but I don't like to ignore questions, mikey. All I can say is I have no idea why answers have been removed, non of them were in the least bit offensive.

The only thing I can think of is when andy-hughes tells you that you are making 'unfounded assumptions' accept it and move on.

But when andy-hughes is making unfounded assumptions (and acknowledges you have a point) accept it and move on.

## Bloody hell !...what happened ? ##

You swore Mikey! :-)

[mikey4444]

trt....I think we can use bloody now ! I used ruddy in its place for ages, but its not as good as bloody.

Bertie Wooster used "bally" a lot, because Wodehouse's publisher wouldn't allow anything more colourful !
