Yes I think Bern is right here...although what Gervais said had an element of the watchable shock factor to it, the whole shhhpiel wasnt particularly funny. It got an embarassing laugh or two and it had a watchable element but the last thing people want at their annual awards ceremony, whether it is the BP or Apple annual dinner, is someone to come along and insult the people there, the people in the business.
The newspapers today take a mixed view of it all...some liked it some thought it appalling. One said the comments were just snide...and so therefore not particularly good comedy writing as almost everyone can do snide!
One thing.. I guess it was Tom Cruise he was referring to re the gay Scientologist..well I didnt know that.This information made me take note with bewilderment. But... If Tom isnt then gay then dear old Ricky can expect a lawsuit. Shocking waste though innit..to be married to Nicole Kidman if you dont really fancy her
