In the head.
If it looks like a prat, sounds like a prat, and talks of prattish things, it's a PRAT!
I do hope you mean Izzard.'LOL

Why are Eddie Izzard, Russell Brand, Vivienne Westwood, Emma Thompson and their ilk given so much airtime when they have very little but bluster and confusion to add to any topic?

Being "famous" should not give you some special dispensation to try and influence political debate surely.
We should all just say a few words, thank the Lord, and rejoice in the fact - that Charlotte Church and Brian May weren't there.
thank the Lord that that cock-socket Brand wasn't there... that's a point actually that little fknugget seems to have gone all quiet since the election or have I just successfully managed to tune him out?

He was OK when he first appeared many years ago.

Now he's like a gobby kid in a playground, not funny at all, and desperately needs to get over himself.
I found Izzard to be a really bad debater. Even the audience didn't like him
and Dimbleby had to give him a verbal warning a couple of times. Not even
the modern day Arthur Scargill aka Owen Jones needed that sort of treatment.

Let's hope the BBC keep Izzard off QT for a long while, until he learns
how to shut up and learn how the program works.

She was getting some sympathy then about three quarters of the audience couldn't help but think 'fk right off!!'

I enjoyed it last night, but it was a shambles

Izzard was poor and Farage's passport trick is beyond lame.
hehe
It reminded me of the, 'you shag ONE sheep' joke.
I thought it was brilliant! laugh

Also reminded me of, 'you are all different.'
'I'm not.'

One of the things I like about QT is that the panelists normally say nothing until they are asked to speak, and they then address the audience or the question asker, not another panelist.

It is incredibly irritating when someone does not respect this etiquette.

Which political colour of politician tends to be the most shouty shouty? I bet there is a pattern.

I honestly thought she had Downs syndrome or something in the debate, apart from her pre-prepared exit speech ! I'm not joking.

I was thinking that Lord Star of the Key would be the perfect antidote to Eddie Izzy Ard.
The Lesser Hitchens also has the intestinal fortitude to tell people exactly why they are wrong.

That old speaker - Bernard Weatherall or something - he was on there once - possible the worst panellist ever. He literally replied with two word answers, every time. No wonder the tt never appeared again.
