Hands off our "Manuel"

Of all the people on Earth those wankers Brand and Ross chose to abuse, they couldn't have picked a worse subject than "Manuel". This character is an innocent, bullied and much loved icon, throughout the whole world. Andrew Sachs = Manuel, if they'd picked almost anybody else, no one would have given a toss.

I think Manuel is symbolic of all of us and Brand and Ross symbolise the fucking Establishment, City Traders, BP, Shell, Tesco, the banks and every other over paid cunt that has been fucking us all over for the last 10 years.

Hence the outpouring of vengeance, both of them have now been cast as bullies in the public conciousness and I think you'll see less and less of both of them in the media in the future. A little like that pair of crooks "Ant and Dec" whohave quietly been removed from our screens.

I think with all the shit coming down on all of us, God help any fucking "Celeb" who takes the piss!

The crazy thing, Jim, is that of all the people to bully, they bully Andrew Sachs. The whole genre of today's comedy has Fawlty Towers as its key component- it finally took the work of Pete and Dud and of Monty Python and made it mainstream.

So no Andrew Sachs- no Ross or Brand. Biting the hand that fed them- its insane.

Actually, if you mean, I'm bullied, laughed at, and I'm also saying "Que?" all the time, well you're not far wrong. I have actually visited Barcelona on occasion, spooky, eh?

You're right, because Cleese made a fool of himself as well. Ross thinks he's the fucking Bees Knees and Mr Entertainment, that's why he's hated so much. He's gone well above his station ie to present shows and shut the fuck up the rest of the time! As for Brand, Mr fucking Lubber Lubber, who shags all the celebs, he'd set himself right up for a fall.
