Did anyone hear about Preston walking out of Never Mind The Buzzcocks afetr Simon Amstell read extracts from wife Chantelle's new book, I hope it makes the final edit.

I've never really watched Buzzcocks. I was really gutted when Mark Lemar left though, it was a real shame.

Yea, apparently Simon went into the audience, found a vague look-a-likie for preston and got him to join the panal instead!

I'm kind of "well done Preston" about this, but also wondering exactly what he expected, if not that sort of thing........

I dont know what was said to him, but he has always come across as a fairly down to earth sort of character. I would think it must have been quite insulting for him to walk out.

[SAV1OUR]

The cheeky, rat-faced, know-it-all poodle-permed host had it coming and much more, he was lucky. What I find odd though is how he can tolerate 3 weeks of BB but now that hes back in the spotlight its "adios, you jumped-up Poopworld t***"?

[Longview01]

Preston is a prick, I cant stand that guy with his "i'll do anything to get famous" approach.

The sooner we stop people like him and Chantelle from gathering undeserved attention the better.

Hes a talentless * and shes even worse.

As you can tell I really dont like him, her or the Ordinary boys (they names does make me laugh cause they are nothing bu ordinary)

[Longview01]

I meant they are ordinary, nothing special

[Ballbag]

Sadly Longvoo this country seems to be suddenly full of people who'll do anything to be famous / get on TV.

Remember back in the day when the only chance of doing that was on The Word by getting in a washing machine, snogging a granny or eating your own publics?

Nowadays you can pretty much sit down and watch TV from 10 am til midnight without out turning over from a reality TV show........ whether it's people buying houses, selling antiques, bringing up kids, living in a house, being too fat, breathing............ everyone seems to want to be on TV.

I sort of agree with Longview on this one. The Ordinary Boys were a pretty mundane and average band before Big Brother. I can't take any band seriously or have any respect for someone who does Big Brother. Chantelle can't expect to be taken seriously either. She's a jumped-up Essex generic-blonde chav who would be begging for a job in Woolworths if it wasn't for Big Brother.

My own personal feelings about Big Brother aside, it's a comedy show, he shouldn't get offended so easily.

[Yudster]

I still think its quite sweet that he wasn't prepared to sit there while a bunch of tossers took the piss out of his wife though. Of course, it begs the question what did he think said bunch of tossers would do, if not take the piss out of his wife, and this being the case, why was he on the show in the first place? But I still think its rather gallant of him.

[Ballbag]

Perhaps they can't expect to be taken seriously gunkyseaweed, but they're earning a hell of a lot of money in the process.

Celebrity Big Brother is basically free advertisment for the celebrity brand in question, a way of springing back into public view and making a shed load of money in the process. That is just the nature of the business, and fair play to those who use the oppourtunity.

If someone started mocking Mrs Ballbag in front of the general public, I know what I'd do.......... get up there and join them. There's safety in numbers.

You're a real gent, you are. I always knew it, a gent.

Your talking to a guy that calls his wife "Mrs Ballbag" - what do you expect?

[Ballbag]

We're married, and hence she took my name..... I wanted to hyphenate, but Mr and Mrs Ballbag-Smithe sounded too poncy.

[foot-loose]

it would do.

[Ballbag]

It wouldn't fit on the joint bank account application form in truth.

Surely it would be Mrs. Bag for balls...?

Hehe - The Simpsons episode with the immortal line "Nibbles, chew through my Ball Sack" was on earlier and I thought of you!

Alas Bag for balls is just a play on words, and not my real name...... I tried to keep that a secret but let Ballbag slip somewhere on here.

[Yudster]

I prefer Baggie. I wonder why?

[MK Chris]

Reminds me of the panther from Jungle Book.

[Ballbag]

I was thinking of changing it to be fair, but I'm not sure if that's the "done thing" on forums.

not to be picky, but wouldn't it have been Futurama?
(i guess that because theres a character called Nibbles)
