    Paul Whitehouse is the best British comic actor of his generation by a country mile. There's an air of tragedy about him at the same time as he is making people laugh out loud, it makes him unique.

      The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL.
      THE GOSPEL (which means the Good News) is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him.
      John 1:1,14 KJV
      In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us,
      Isaiah 9:6 KJV
      For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
      John 1:10
      He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.
      John 20:28-29
      And Thomas answered and said unto him, MY LORD AND MY GOD. [29] Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
      Are you saved friend? If you died tonight will you go to heaven or hell?
      Acts 16:30-31
      ...what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
      Luke 24:47
      And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
      Acts 4:12
      Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

      He's the type of English actor you put in a movie in a very benign way. You could even put him in an American movie as a Brit. I like to think of Benny Hill in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. I used to love seeing so well-known British actors pop up in international films. Could be used well in a smaller Tarantino's movie LOL

    I remember when my Aunty and Uncle visited me in 1998, they gave my Mom and Dad a VHS of The Fast Show Live and they didn't know I was a fan of The Fast Show which I first watched in 1997. They told us that they met Paul Whitehouse and said he was a really nice man. They told us that Paul Whitehouse told them about the Rowley Birkin sketches and he told them that the sketches weren't scripted and rehearsed and when they filmed them, Whitehouse in character would get shown a random image and he would make it all up right on the spot.

    This clip is great, the comic rapport is natural between O'Grady and Whitehouse, both from different entertainment backgrounds but capable here of good-natured interaction of a kind presumably impossible for some of the posters below, with their very narrow perception of what is and isn't 'humour'.

    Ah damn , I have such a lack of respect for the industry that promotes horrendous reality shows , yet fails to truly recognise what a wealth of talent we have in the ranks of the character actors and comedians in this great country of ours . Perhaps if we were to fall over backwards to help them develop their careers it would be great ,then again though, perhaps they would become as spoilt as the stars they support , people like Johhny depp . So perhaps its for the best , look at how well he's self destructing in front of the spotlight . A man who's so spoilt and directionless , he's rushing headlong into oblivion .
