He is a joke. I have never watched the film review show since Barry Norman went. I dont like his style, very annoying, Ross aint fit to lick Barry's boots.

Read many of Barry Normans books on the golden era of the studio system and his meetings with stars, makes for a cracking read.

Jonathan Ross claims that he knew at the time that the prank call had gone too far and had suggested that it be edited out before the Radio 2 prog was broadcast.

Keeping with the current trend of my unpopularity (ha ha ha) Im glad he is back because I ve missed Friday Night With Jonathan Ross and to be honest i think his apology to Andrew Sachs is acceptable as I think Russell Brand was the worse one of the two. Ross looked like an accessory so a suspension without pay is enough punishment i think.

Georgina Baille seems to be doing ok out of it.She even got an award the other night. I'm just pissed off and bored silly how much media attention this got.

I think JR is great!

For those who have not yet seen it the full 19 minute, unedited, clip of Ross and Brand phoning Andrew Sachs is on YouTube. It's in 2 parts. They really do overstep the mark!
