Is anyone as horrified as I am that Michael Barrymore is rumoured to be in th frame for �150.000 for appearing on big Brother. This revolting bit of humanity legged it when someone was dying in his pool. I have emailed Channel 4 to voice my opinion, and hope anyone else who feels the same will do likewise. Make your voice heard!

I agree with you rabbits - that man is all smarm and insincerity. An attention seeking talentless egotist.

Im sure many people will outraged by this. Frankly Im surprised he had the audacity to accept the offer to appear.

I was looking forward to Celeb BB but I wont be watching it now on principle. Sorry rant over!

I find it interesting that an entertainer who was at the very top of his profession is now so vilified, not because he ceased to be entertaining to millions, but because of events which took place in his home.

I would agree (as would MB) that he behaved badly at the time, but people do panic and behave irrationally at times of stress, and it has been proven that MB was not directly involved or responsible for the tragiv events that took place at his home.

Michael Barrymore has paid a high price for his irrational activity - in proportion, far more than a lot of people who are guilty of worse behaviour, and maybe he feels it is time to stop paying in public, and get on with his career.

Personally, I have always thought him to be a talentless egotistical boorish buffoon, but I was very much in the minority. My opinion of him as an entertainer remains the same, but I would not jump on the bandwaggon of hatred based on what the media have told me. I shan't watch CBB because he is on it - but then i never watched him before, so i am being consistent.

How many of the 'haters' and 'disgusteds of Tunbridge Wells' are confusing circumstances and media hype with someone who has paid the penalty for his actions?

Fair enough Andy - but it will interesting to see which direction his career takes after BB.

His legions of fans may well welcome him back with open arms.

I personally found his style nauseating and am weary of his constant self-pitying drink/drugs/marriage/boyfriend problems played out at his behest in the public spotlight.

I agree, Andy. If we want to have a go at anybody maybe it should be the producers of this silly show - and us for watching it (not me, I have to say). I'm afraid that C4 are delighted by rabbits' email and by the thousands of others it has undoubtedly received. They must be rubbing their hands.

All hail Andy Hughes!!
Yet again the "voice" of reason and wisdom : )

He made a mistake he has paid the price for it and deserves a second chance...When you are a celebrity with the press following your every move then the sheer horror of what had happend must have sent him into a panic ..it was a dreadfull thing what went on that night..he wasnt involved and yes it was his house so that makes all attention swivel on him..He is a very weak man and hopefully he has learned his lesson..at the end of the day their are worse people than him walking the streets..people that have commited seriouse crimes and been let out of jail for a second chance! so surely as a human being he also deserves a chance..

not sure why being in the public eye would stop ANYONE doing the right and decent thing. He refused to give evidence at the inquest (as I understand it although no doubt someone will jump up and down and correct me if I'm wrong). Sorry but he was unentertaining to me as a presenter and a completely unwelcome guest (if he is indeed going to be one) in the BB house.
