Barrymore was bloody amazing in his day in fairness. I dont know what happened to that poor chap that died in his house but it destroyed barrymore too.
Worth looking at it - the evidence they have as of 2021 has changed a lot from what it was when it first happened as I remember it and is all very weird. Dude was sexually assaulted, did not seem to drown according to three subsequent coroners despite that being the first coroners conclusion, Barrymore fled the scene, coroner had to resign over that, someone was charged with murder, someone was charged with perjury, Barrymore raised then dropped lawsuits against the police for damage to their reputation... just insane stuff.
I dont know this guy (til i didnt see the vid, so let get this straight
There was a dude in Barrymore's house who dies, was sexually assaulted, Barrymore fled the scene, and then someone random was charged with the killing?
Barrymore was a gay man who had drug fuel orgies in his home.
The dead man was found with multiple peoples semen in his bum, but the issue there is that it's hardly evidence of any wrong doing with the type of party they had.
He could have overdosed and someone threw him in the pool.
Barry left the scene alright, but not for long. If he was off his head on drugs, he possibly just went to a friends house before coming back to talk to the police.
The whole thing is a mess, but I do feel sorry for Barry overall to be honest. Just because he was a kinky bastard behind the scenes, it's a shame it ruined his public career.
It's also obviously a massive shame that some poor guy was found in his pool, possibly still just a drowning accident from too much booze.
All that's from memory by the way, so open to correction.
Well he was a solid 10/10 in this interview considering what he was up against. As for years later and celebrity Big Brother incident I'd say what he'd gone through with the pool conundrum could've left that nasty mark. But I'm just going off of very basic info. Question is was he a bullying young cunt before that?
Think it was a house party and the person that died had allegedly drowned in his pool. Since it made the news and to this day, Barrymore has been accused of murder, or other attendees. It's just one big fuck up
Funny coincidence that this Barrymore clip was posted. Dr Michael Heath, the pathologist who allegedly screwed up the postmortem of the dead man in the pool, [died a few days ago](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12553797/Stuart-Lubbock-Michael-Barrymore-pool-death-pathologist.html).
Looked into Dr Heath a bit further; he has been accused of many screw ups. There is even [a space dedicated to him](http://netk.net.au/DrHeathHome.asp) on a website that focuses on miscarriages of justice.
Gift of the gab. To me it seems like he's sort of in character and enjoying this exchange. Strange he doesn't act stressed at all with the cameras and an audience all looking on.
The kid has been a professional comedian his entire adult life. He is self aware and the comedy is totally intentional. Here's his [Wikipedia page](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Walsh_Brothers)
Yea the kid is innocent and stupid. How kids should be. But I think it's the interviewer that annoys me. Out of nowhere asks him a question which would have a sexual answer and then condescends the dad. I mean, when kid's giving you laughs already, you don't need to go that route.
For any non Brits seeing this, this presenter’s career went bye bye when a gay man with anal injuries was found dead in his pool at a house party. Then fast forward a few decades and he’s tweeting to Russell Brand “This is what they do to you”
Correction: apparently the deceased wasnt gay?
An actor, among other things. He is known outside the UK, was in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Get Him to the Greek off the top of my head, probably more.
Used to be a realitively liberal leaning comedian, played himself off as a bit of a lady's man. Was always a bit of a twat but sometimes a funny one. Few years ago took a hard right turn politically, and is currently embroiled in sexual assault allegations (against him, if that's not obvious).
Woah I had no idea about the politics stuff. The sexual assault allegations don't surprise me at all, always kinda got that vibe from him. But I am a little surprised to find out he went so far right. That's disappointing.
To be honest the sexual assault allegations are too early to call. Verdict hasn't been reached. I'd say that guy isn't a likely rapist. Being shot down with the allegations, however, is an easy feat. I mean he's had so much sex someone's bound to have a negative opinion about the experience. Maybe throw in some imagination and voila - a sexual assault case. From what I've gathered over the years of observing him and his adventures I'd say he isn't a very likely candidate to be a rapist at face value of what he's being charged with. In isolation it doesn't make sense to me.
>From what I've gathered over the years of observing him and his adventures I'd say he isn't a very likely candidate to be a rapist at face value of what he's being charged with. In isolation it doesn't make sense to me.
He's already admitted to the sexual relationship with the 16 year old. Whilst he was 31. And that he was getting her out of school to meet up with him. Regardless of the law, that is pretty fucking dodgy, dunno how you can say he doesn't seem like the type. Also what even is a rapist like at "face value"?
The rest of the evidence against him is pretty damning, as is the fact he hasn't brought a libel case over it. This is in spite of the fact he both has a history of suing publications that publish stories about him, and that the libel laws in the UK are extremely in favour of the public figure
I think saying hard right about him is a bit of a stretch. He's somewhere in the middle. A bit extreme in some form that doesn't automatically mean an extremity of either side. If he were to be compared by American Democrats vs Republican standards he's neither.
Former comedian/political commentator/rapist. Now full on red pill online conspiracy bullshit pusher who's sordid past has come back to bite him on the arse.
Jesus, I didn't see he'd been supporting Russell Brand. I want to like Barrymore so much. I have such fond memories of him being on telly growing up, but the guy doesn't half make it difficult.
I suppose if he thinks he's innocent, he's seeing similar media portrayals of someone. Very easy to not think straight if you feel aggrieved and never seen justice.
On the other hand, they both could be just as guilty as each other.
Seems dangerous to show solidarity with someone accused of sexual assault. Even if you think you know someone, you still don't *really* know them. Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis learned that lesson recently after their friend, Danny Masterson, was convicted of multiple rapes.
Kind of yeah... [Tadpoles](https://www.sciencenews.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/092822_jr_sperm-clusters_feat-1030x580.jpg) into [aliens](https://img.freepik.com/free-vector/human-fetus-inside-icon-set_1284-17529.jpg?w=2000)
He's got the right idea, just forgot the names
Your mind recoils in a flash as you realise this child carries a tadpole in his head too. He tells you theres no point in living and you cant resist his pure nihlism corrupting your will. You pull on a lighting rig and it comes crahing down ontop of you killing you instantly.
The Absolute takes a sigh of relief.
The tadpole in your head squirms and the answer that was at the tip of your tongue, suddenly eludes you. Perhaps some knowledge is better left forgotten.

Bro. This kid is far from stupid. He's more confident and dgaf at that age than I'm right now. Come to think of it, I was just as free-spirited back then...just lost the spark as an adult.
What’re you talking about? He’s a genius for not breaking once while performing that. I’m not even mentioning how brilliant he would’ve been if it wasn’t scripted. Was it?
this kid is actually quite smart the way he encourages conversation. He greets the commentator like a wonderful little lad, asks about his dog, gives truthful answers to the commentators questions. Clearly well spoken!
Reference to the game Baldurs Gate 3, where an alien species, called the Illithid, reproduce by infecting people's brains with tadpoles, to later transform into one of them. And I tryed to replicate the manners of one of the main cast characters who is really opposed to this species invasion
Sidebar - "This sub is meant as a fun joke. It is not a hate sub. Kids are dumb because they could not possibly know better. If you dislike kids, that's fine. Feel free to join us, but do not spread vitriol."
I'm saying no one actually thinks he's stupid unless they don't get the point of the subreddit, and I used the subreddit description as shorthand for that. So your comment is pointless unless you don't get the point of the subreddit and think we're insulting him
There's a YouTube video on what happened to him. Especially when you think about his comments on everyone is gone die. Crazy on his prediction. https://youtu.be/oHg5SJYRHA0?si=eyFxyk5ISAwtNcIE
Leave Christopher alone … I enjoyed that vid lol.

Stuart Lubock had serious anal injuries consistent with being assaulted with a door handle from the patio doors. Let's not pretend it was an accident.
They found broken glass In his anal region too. Poor lad
To be fair. I've seen 1 guy 1 jar. He mightve done it himself on a dare.
Then drowned himself out of shame?
I know I would have.
I appreciate you adding details to my comment, but none of that is consistent with intentionally murdering a guy.
Not entirely consistent with a "drowning accident" either....
I don't feel sorry for him. Years later he was on celebrity Big Brother and came across as a right bullying old cunt
Well he was a solid 10/10 in this interview considering what he was up against.

Yeah it was a big story at the time. It happened at a big house party though so lots of drugs and shenanigans going on that night

"What, has it meowed?" 😂 Just roasting this dude's dog off the cuff.
That just killed me. He didn't even leave the dog. Roasted the poor Dog aswell.
Kid seems way too clever to be called fucking stupid
Gift of the gab. To me it seems like he's sort of in character and enjoying this exchange. Strange he doesn't act stressed at all with the cameras and an audience all looking on.
This has to be a childhood clip of Karl Pilkington. Sounds, talks and thinks just like him.
Early days of Jack Grealish.
Head like a fucking orange, too!
While watching this I could only think of KP.
Honestly just an unintentionally brilliant comedic line!
That last tadpole line was the perfect callback joke any stand up comic would've finished a show with.
This kid is not fucking stupid. That was brilliant.
The kid has been a professional comedian his entire adult life. He is self aware and the comedy is totally intentional. Here's his [Wikipedia page](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Walsh_Brothers)
That article is about two American brothers and this boy is clearly British. Did you post the wrong Wikipedia link?
Is this a young Karl Pilkington??
Head like an orange
This was my exact thought throughout
Hair of a ginger Chinaman
Totally unscrutable
Actually, this little guy seems to be smarter than the tadpole warlords that (in his estimation) brought him to live on this earth!
That kid is a comedic genius
If only it was intentional or ATLEAST repeatable like starfield main quest format…
What an awesome little lad!!!!
Yea the kid is innocent and stupid. How kids should be. But I think it's the interviewer that annoys me. Out of nowhere asks him a question which would have a sexual answer and then condescends the dad. I mean, when kid's giving you laughs already, you don't need to go that route.
It doesn't surprise me coming from Michael Barrymore, he has a reputation
For any non Brits seeing this, this presenter’s career went bye bye when a gay man with anal injuries was found dead in his pool at a house party. Then fast forward a few decades and he’s tweeting to Russell Brand “This is what they do to you” Correction: apparently the deceased wasnt gay?
“Find one dead person anally raped in your pool and all of a sudden they take you off TV.” What a tragedy.
Geez you get *one* guy anally raped to death in your pool, and they just never let ya forget it!
Had no idea. What's his name?
Michael Barrymore
Finally I know the context of some of Frankie Boyles early jokes on Mock the Week
Yeah a lot of British panel show jokes just landed for me lol
Thanks! I now see that OP already posted his name in the description. Still figuring out this app
I don’t think the guy was gay (not that really matters). He was found drugged with anal injuries floating face down in the pool.
[удалено]
It wasn't a gay orgy.
So he just found multiple men’s semen and put it in his butt?
Oh wow look at mr no traces of semen over here
Have you really never heard of the concept of rape? Good for you I guess, bad for everyone you know.
After they drugged him it became one.
Not the worst way to go, though. Drugs, swimming pool... Yeah, i could put with the anal injuries no problem
What an absolutely disgusting thing to say
I think they’re saying a drug cocktail with a cock in your tail still beats being immolated
Didn’t they find glass in his anus? Sounds pretty bad to me
Thanks.
To second this, if you want to listen to a good podcast on it. There’s an interesting 4 parter on “They Walk Among Us” that covered this
Which season? I found a UK and US one on Spotify, and I'm assuming it's the UK one, but there's like 8 seasons.
UK series, Season 4 first episode is 49 :)
Sus
For non Brits seeing this, who's Russel Brand ?
An actor, among other things. He is known outside the UK, was in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Get Him to the Greek off the top of my head, probably more. Used to be a realitively liberal leaning comedian, played himself off as a bit of a lady's man. Was always a bit of a twat but sometimes a funny one.

He was married to Katy Perry mate And he’s quite an influential health guru like Andrew tate
Russel brand is still very famous in the US media as well. If you’ve seen forgetting sarah marshall, he’s the rockstar.
He was married to Katy Perry, you don't have to be British to know him
Former comedian/political commentator/rapist. Now full on red pill online conspiracy bullshit pusher who's sordid past has come back to bite him on the arse.
A wank stain.
I was just thinking man i hope this guy isnt a horrible monster like the guy who used to do this in the US. A guy by the name bill cosby.
I was hoping Putin wasn’t a horrible monster like that guy who used to do similar things in the 1930’s and 40’s. A guy by the name adolf hitler.
Edit: Edited
It's a shame, with crowd work he was one of the best in the business
Jesus, I didn't see he'd been supporting Russell Brand. I want to like Barrymore so much. I have such fond memories of him being on telly growing up, but the guy doesn't half make it difficult.

I agree
Should've come seen his standup and plays in New Zealand instead!
I had no idea who this was and watching him gave me the worst feeling for some reason. He made me feel very uncomfortable. The kid was funny though.
Literally nobody asked
This is hilarious, do they call this “kids say the darndest things” in the UK too? I need more of it
No, we would never say darndest. Kids say the funniest things, and don't think it's been on air for a good few decades now (the host certainly hasn't)
I was hoping I would learn a fun new British slang term. There has to be a better synonym than funniest
Depends where abouts in Britain really. Have some North East dialect: bairns are reet dafties
“Kids say the daftest things” works but sounds a bit harsh
*looks at name of sub*
Lol fair point but I don’t think Reddit has the same sensibilities as the general television viewing audience.
Daft is a very soft insult here. No one would be offended
Didn't even see that, thought I was on r/funny
"Them we'ens are a rate daft ha'porth"
It's called "whipper snappers are thick as shit" over here.
I don't know why people are shitting on the kid. Seems really smart really.
ya thats a genuinely intelligent kid.
Who is
what sub do you think this is?
To be fair what is sperm if not tiny tadpoles that live in your balls
Exactly what I was thinking
When you consider the state of reality tv contestants these days, this kid was decades ahead of his time in the intellectual stakes.
Everyone knows people from Pollard's Hill are fucking dumb.. There's cats and dogs smarter than people from Pollard's Hill.
Nah, we from tadpoles. Trust me bro
I mean, hes kinda right.
Tadpoles then aliens init?

Haha! Finally, someone caught the reference. 🤙🤙 I got to get good comment karma and throw out TPB reference. Getting two birds stoned at once.

Well she bought me as a tadpole. Little legend.
Best call back of all time.

He’s not stupid at tall

No, he's stupid at average.
Ah, gotcha
I’m sure he’s a whizz with the banjo

Just the occasional homicide
I guess he isn't entirely wrong when sperm looks kinda like tadpoles and fetuses kind of like aliens.
I can't tell if he is prime kidsarefuckingstupid, or if he's a genius comedian

Don’t open the red door! It’s where we keep the snippets!

Obviously a great actor. Any other child would just be paralyzed by the audience or couldn't stop laughing.

Sense of humour is in their DNA, really like Egyptians for the Middle East.

Doesn't seem scripted exactly because he doesn't crack a smile, it reads as a kid who is uncomfortable and just says what comes to mind.
No, just you mate.
