Esmond Million's Bung Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 Just goes to show how useless one needs to be to get this once coveted honour. Absolute joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute joke. Couldn't agree more. I'd forgotten all about him. Then I remembered he destroyed the Liberal Party by getting into bed with Cameron.

Somebody who deserves one for doing charity work etc To give one to some old geezer who is famous for looking a right mess and singing like his bollycocks have been through a mangle just makes a mockery of the whole process.

In a previous incarnation the brothers Gibb were actually known as ' Les Tossers ' ... before they became famous as The Bee Gees. (did you see the Clive Anderson show when Barry followed be the other two walked off the set after Clive said they'd always been 'les tossers' to him? ..it's on YouTube) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gimme Shelton Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 One of the greatest moments of TV ever! From memory it was only Barry who took offence,the other two followed him off in brotherly solidarity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILINFRANCE Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 I watched the clip and, for the life of me, I can't see why or at what Barry Gibb was offended. Clive Anderson's comment that they had always been Les Tossers for him was said several minutes before BG walked off stage, and he seemed to be in good humour after.

Maurice was the last one off and he looked totally bemused / confused by the whole thing. Barry really is a humourless plank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILINFRANCE Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 An age thing, obviously, but I really liked the Bee Gees' 1960/70s songs (Words, Massachusetts etc.), but thought they went downhill from Saturday Night Fever and the whole disco thing onwards. I am sure some expert will be able to demonstrate that their record sales prove I am in the minority, but there we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
