Insult him, insult his band members but you don't go calling a man's wife stupid. There was nothing funny about the quotes except the fact they sounded like they were written by someone who got a D at GCSE.
The comedians showed their worth with this episode. They were sharp and edgy with a self-proclaimed "celeb". As soon as the normal 'well drilling' bloke turned up on stage they showed him respect.
He had his wife annihilated. He took the joke well about the Big Brother association. He had every right to feel uncomfortable, who knows what their status was at the time. Too far unless your morbid interests in the TV world out do your own morality. There is a line. There is a always a line.
@myrixica4222 A prat yes but also wouldn't want it happening to me. I don't remember the brutal ridicule ever being about people's wives or partners and if they weren't happy at the time then who can blame him? But yeah he is a bit of a prat. I mean what was he wearing and didn't take the joke about his band too well either, or took it a bit confused.I don't want to sound like I'm a fan lol.
I have no idea what that Preston kids problem was, but I like his replacement better. Can we just replace Preston with this guy permanently for everything?

Nonsense! This video has way more than 3 views!
2019 and preston is still an ordinary boy, working in lidl
The comedians showed their worth with this episode. They were sharp and edgy with a self-proclaimed "celeb". As soon as the normal 'well drilling' bloke turned up on stage they showed him respect.
He had his wife annihilated. He took the joke well about the Big Brother association. He had every right to feel uncomfortable, who knows what their status was at the time. Too far unless your morbid interests in the TV world out do your own morality. There is a line. There is a always a line.
@@stuarthossack5351 Except even Preston went on to admit he was a prat for walking out.
@myrixica4222 A prat yes but also wouldn't want it happening to me. I don't remember the brutal ridicule ever being about people's wives or partners and if they weren't happy at the time then who can blame him?
But yeah he is a bit of a prat. I mean what was he wearing and didn't take the joke about his band too well either, or took it a bit confused.I don't want to sound like I'm a fan lol.
That host looks like Jesse Eisenberg and Carrot Top's love child
This is the funniest thing I have seen in a while!!
Simon the idiot
Both are Jewish so explains it
Mmm.. Carrot Top is not Jewish.
A show known for this kind of humor .. and he gets pissed?
I have no idea what that Preston kids problem was, but I like his replacement better. Can we just replace Preston with this guy permanently for everything?
From what I read. He asked them not to read his book and they did anyway. Fun rib. But. I understand his annoyance. Tbh
I know more about the Preston replacement "Ed" than I know about the other Preston
If you can't take a joke then why on earth would you go on a panel show? Like, had he ever watch the show before?
Exactly - not just Buzzcocks but literally ANY British TV or radio panel show is about ripping the piss.
He'd appeared on it once previously with a different presenter...
Biggest laugh of the show
2:19
"Oh no we can't lose Preston"
:'D
We can't lose Preston- classic
“I read the whole thing, it upset me” 😂
This upset Preston so much because it made him realize how much he regretted marrying his wife.
I love bill bailey. He's like the world's most lovable uncle.
...and he was never seen again.
pretty true
William Yale he wasn’t a bad looking guy no homo
I am constantly amazed by the number of "celebrities" of whom I have never heard.
they keep spawning in to panel shows from eastenders
Because the world doesn't revolve around you.
It's a rare occasion when a celebrity walking out of a show is a total upgrade to the show :) That was awesome!
"The Daily Mail made me feel really posh and upmarket." x'D
Why is this recommended after 10 years ? Lol
cause youtube
lol you getting this shit too? Wild
They collected a lot of data and now its paying off just because you clicked it.
@evoljellyfish 00 shut up you woke wasteman
@Barndog we've been brainwashed by buzzcocks late 2000s comedy! Not again!
You left out the bit after the credits where Simon goes "Thank God for you!!" and gives the guy a huge hug lol
I think it's really classy how Bill saved the day!
Fair play to that guy being put on the spot in the chair, He did quite well, Haha
Love how this is still raking in the views in 2016!
@8 BALL Yup..how sad are we?
bobbiwib 2019
It's now the end of 2021 and still nobody knows who Preston is.
Yeah we do, his name is Ed.
i do feel like this particular show killed prestons career
Did he have a career before this?
Preston killed Preston's career. This business we call show can be ruthless when it comes to exposing people and their motivations for what they are. It really is survival of the fittest and if you ain't paid the dues...….
Yeah maybe. I guess Simon Amstells career is in about the same place also....
It was already dead. If you have to go on celebrity big brother it's already dead.
Joe McGovern Preston’s was almost instant. Amstel can still write and perform.
If he's offended by that I'd love to see him meet Frankie Boyle
“Preston is angry now, I can’t continue.” XD
"I've read the whole thing it upset me" still kills me.
