BEE GEES Interview - embarrassing!

[Art_Weingartner]

"Tossers" in the UK is an insult. Like w@nker'.

This is a total p*$$ take LOL

Many comments say the host Clive Anderson was rude but I don't think he was particularly rude or something like this. Looks like the guy in the middle (sorry, what's his name?) had a pretty bad day.

 

[Art_Weingartner]

Two ways of looking at Clive.

1) If you go on his show you expect to be teased. He is only joking, even though he can appear to be desperate to belittle someone. I saw him do it to Griff Rheese Jones too.

or...

2) He is arrogant, can talk over people, and can be directly insulting.

As I say, go prepared for that. OR if you're someone quick witted like Paul Merton or Stephen Fry, ridicule him back.

Is he still hosting after this incident?

Is/was Anderson an U.S. host or an U.K. host?

 

[Art_Weingartner]

UK - he was the creator of Whoe Line Is It Anyway back in the 1980s. He's a trained barrister.

Clive seems alright to me.I'm choosing to go with Art,and how he explained about Clive in number one.I also agree that if you know someone is that way prepare for that.

As for the Bee Gees,I love them!It was Barry who was upset first and walked off the stag.
