Rob Chubby Grant News Posted by John Hoare on 14th March 2005, 21:36 As nicked from Garbage World, this is the cover of Rob Grant’s Fat from Amazon. It looks extremely similar in style to Incompetence – whether it’s just a quick mock-up or pretty much what the real thing will be like I HAVE NO IDEA, although the repeated tagline ‘Bad is the new Good’ indicates a quick mock to me. The publication date has also been put back again; now it’s January 19th 2006. (Previous dates were May 1st, May 19th, and December 31st of this year.) What a lazy cunt. All this is for the UK hardback edition; the paperback entry gives both the same publication date and is four quid more expensive, so presumably it’s just a placeholder entry with bollocks details. He’s not fat. He’s porky.
So long as the cover of the book in some way has Rob’s name directly underneath the word FAT, thus creating the slogan FAT ROB GRANT, I’ll be happy. Cheap laughs, but you’ve got to get ’em any way you can, really.
Why the god has it been delayed again? Has he even written the fucking thing? Maybe he’s too busy writing the new Dwarf TV movie.
“Why the god has it been delayed again? Has he even written the fucking thing? Maybe he’s too busy writing the new Dwarf TV movie.” Is he writing a new Dwarf TV movie?
The only thing he’s finishing off is his plan to look like the fat guy from Monty Python’s The meaning of life.
“Is he writing a new Dwarf TV movie?” Yeah, he’s teaming up with Robert Llewellyn to write a one-off 2 hour big budget version of ‘Beyond A Joke’. Unfortunately, as Charles is appearing in The Games, Lister’s shoes are being ably filled by Norris from Coronation Street. It was felt that he had the right qualities for the role.
