Have I Got News For You - Brian Blessed

[Uzoma]

One of the funniest ever . . .?

[Postdog]

Couldn't watch it - ALL THAT SHOUTING ruined it for me. Why has that guy GOT to talk like that?

I did like the "Gordon's alive!" crack tho...

[unrulyjulie]

oooh i didnt see it but i cant bear that man, he is so loud. I wouldnt say he can act at all, just shout. I wouldnt have watched it anyway if i knew he was on and i love this programme.
sorry.

[Denise_uk]

I love HIGNFY but deliberately didn't watch it because of him. I'm with you Julie - can't bear him. Sorry.

[Marijn]

My boys love him. They loved him in Blackadder and everything he's been in.

[Caribeing]

One of my favourite programmes, Brian Blessed shouts too much, over the top actor,best host Boris Johnson

[tigerlily11]

He was just brilliant. Made a change from Ian and Paul getting all the good lines. I haven't laughed at HIGNFY so much in a long time.

[Fay Mousse]

I was really laughing - calling Boris Johnson BoJo had me in stitches for some reason.

Brian blessed was superb, the best show for ages.
He can come to my house for tea anytime.

[brionon]

Definitely {no 'A'} good.

[tiggerblue10]

Brian Blessed was brill. I was in stitches (and tears) throughout.

[Rtaxron]

I hate the loud mouthed over the top actor, wished he had fallen from the top of Everest. he spoiled the show.

[shylock73]

My wife and I don`t usually like BB but as there wasn`t any thing else on worth watching we gave it a go and must say we thoroughly enjoyed him for a change. Critics must realise his loud voice is his gimmick. He was louder in `Flash Gordon` and nearly as loud as my RSM back in the 50s

[I.Don No]

Brian Blessed......just brilliant....havent laffed so much in ages!

[anotheoldgit]

The show has never been the same since Angus Deayton got the sack.

Regarding "Have I got old news for you" this is just another excuse to wheel out yet more repeats.

The whole idea of this show is to present news items that are topical at the time, not months afterwards.

[marwel7]

Fantastic.The onky episode that made me laugh.And who says you need the panel.

[chazza]

I used to not mind BB and used to like HIGNFY, but this seemed to just be an excuse to see how many times he could curse in one show.

Cursing doesn't offend me in the slightest, but neither do I find it amusing to just repeat it over and over again
