Would anybody like me to heckle?

January 12, 2012 at 5:23 pm #114194 ori-STUDFARMParticipant http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normski January 12, 2012 at 6:09 pm #114195 siParticipant You could tell him that you loved him in Back to Earth. January 12, 2012 at 6:28 pm #114196 JamesTCParticipant Yeah, he was brilliant in BTE. January 12, 2012 at 6:52 pm #114197 pfmParticipant Ask him what that spot is in the middle of his forehead. January 12, 2012 at 6:53 pm #114198 siParticipant Shit. Don’t let him see that picture, he’ll be expecting some kind of royalty payment. January 12, 2012 at 7:04 pm #114199 hummingbirdParticipant Resolutely not cashing in on his association with RD again, I see. January 12, 2012 at 7:11 pm #114200 Pete Part ThreeParticipant Ask him to tell that story about the football. Oh how we laughed. January 12, 2012 at 7:47 pm #114201 ori-STUDFARMParticipant Ask him how he feels at being replaced in the new series by Bill Bailey? For the record, can I just point out that I may or may not even know if the Holly character is or is not returning and is or is not going to be a new actor or actress ‘s portrayal…..you know. Just for the record…. Wouldn’t want anyone to think that was a spoiler or owt! January 12, 2012 at 7:52 pm #114202 siParticipant Ask him if he’s legit. January 12, 2012 at 8:01 pm #114203 Ian SymesKeymaster Interesting that one third of the comments on that FB page are from people with the surname ‘Lovett’. January 12, 2012 at 8:14 pm #114204 AlexParticipant Didn’t Kitty Lovett tweet Si recently after, presumably, searching the name on Twitter? Or do I need to study this diagram more? January 12, 2012 at 8:17 pm #114205 JamesTCParticipant Didn’t Kitty Lovett tweet Si recently after, presumably, searching the name on Twitter? Or do I need to study this diagram more? You didn’t dream it up. January 12, 2012 at 8:19 pm #114206 AlexParticipant You didn’t dream it up. That’s good. I thought I was going strange January 12, 2012 at 8:50 pm #114210 Pete Part ThreeParticipant A special treat for Red Dwarf fans! Someone who has no interest in working on Red Dwarf wants your money! January 12, 2012 at 9:07 pm #114211 siParticipant …And is appearing at the SFX Weekender (a science fiction convention) soon with Craig Charles and Hattie Hayridge. Of Red Dwarf fame. Craig and Hattie, of course, appeared in the show while it *wasn’t* funny. January 12, 2012 at 9:53 pm #114213 JamesTCParticipant Here is the tweet. You’ll be able to see it if you sign out of twitter (or if you aren’t blocked by her). January 12, 2012 at 10:00 pm #114212 siParticipant Just spent twenty minutes or so scrolling back through my last four and a half weeks of Tweets, so that I could share the Tweet that Kitty Lovett sent me. Found my response to her only to find that she’s blocked me. Oh dear. EDIT: Oh no, I’ve found the whole thing now. I don’t think that there’s much wrong with what I say… Me: Listening to the #RedDwarf VIII commentaries. Onto BitR3. Norman’s currently moaning that he’s not in it enough. “Why did I come back when I’m not in it?” he asks. Good question Norm. He’s now moaning about David Ross in 1988. *sigh* #RedDwarf Oh fucking hell. Norman Lovett moaning. Again. If word gets out that he’s coming back for #RDX, I may not go. No, that’s rubbish, of course I’ll go. But he’ll annoy me. #RedDwarf #RDX Kitty Lovett: @bromley001 Ironic how you say he’s moaning, yet your tweet is moaning…. Me: @kitty_tweets Sorry if you’re offended, but it was a DVD commentary, and I just don’t really expect moaning all the way through it. :/ So there. :/ January 12, 2012 at 10:07 pm #114214 Pete Part ThreeParticipant It’s like Frost/Nixon all over again. January 12, 2012 at 10:13 pm #114215 AlexParticipant It’s the start of a campaign for each member of G&T to offend one member of the Lovett family each. And if any of them are reading this, (and there’s every chance it seems,) no, I’m not being serious. it’s mad that I should even have to say that really. January 12, 2012 at 10:25 pm #114216 JamesTCParticipant This topic spurred me to check his wikipedia page. On seeing it was locked I decided to check the history. It was vandalised. A lot. One such vandalisation replaced every instance of “Norman” with “Normoan”. Another states “They all received negative reviews, and ”The Young Ones” was almost cancelled because of his appearance” and adds to the section about his early career where he was a maintenance worker “His work on coffee machines was considered to be “more productive than anything he has done since”. January 12, 2012 at 10:29 pm #114217 AlexParticipant One such vandalisation replaced every instance of “Norman” with “Normoan”. Almost Swiftian in its rapier-like subtlety. January 12, 2012 at 11:08 pm #114219 hummingbirdParticipant If it hadn’t been entirely of his own doing, one could almost feel sorry for the man. . . Almost. . . . . Nah. January 13, 2012 at 7:59 am #114221 John HoareParticipant I actually quite like Normoan on the VIII commentary. He brings a useful perspective. Can’t be doing with his tripe since, though. January 13, 2012 at 12:22 pm #114223 Stabbim the SkutterParticipant Yeah, while everyone else in the commentary and documentary is gushing about how great VIII is, it’s good to have one voice that’s negative. Makes me feel less ALONE. January 15, 2012 at 5:48 pm #114250 locusceruleusParticipant Hey, there’s a Norman Lovett growing out of the corner of that massive chip! Old ball-less scrotum face strikes again – check out this exchange with Bobby: Bobby: Rather off the topic of Faulkland veterans and Bottom, some interesting electric racing car footage. http://bit.ly/A8d5W2! Norm: @bobbyllew I would sooner drink a load of ink than watch that video again Bobby: @normanlovett1 For goodness sake don’t follow the most recent link I posted then. Get the bottle of ink out and have a sip :-) Norm: @bobbyllew bye bye https://twitter.com/#!/normanlovett1/status/158569632666632192 Notice he reuses the ‘hilarious’ “rather drink a load of ink” line from his Facebook page. January 15, 2012 at 5:49 pm #114251 JamesTCParticipant Normoan by name, Normoan by nature. January 15, 2012 at 6:10 pm #114252 Dax101Participant yeah i noticed right after that he retweeted the following from someone “Yeah, one of my child/teen faves, best ones were when Norman Lovett was Holly, started to go downhill after those.” glad he is over the bitterness O.o oh yeah and my favorite part of it all is that was posted on the 13 Jan, so hold on did norman search himself or something? anyone wanna retween this just for fun? “Norman lovett’s stand up is AWKWARD. LONG. AWKWARD….kind of worrying that this guy belongs apparently to comedy icons? #reddwarf #fail” January 15, 2012 at 6:23 pm #114254 Jonathan CappsKeymaster Hah, probably should’ve posted about him blocking us in here, really. January 15, 2012 at 6:35 pm #114256 HelloMabelParticipant I wonder what he’d rather drink than watch Ed Moore’s camera vid. January 15, 2012 at 6:44 pm #114257 Pete Part ThreeParticipant >@bobbyllew I would sooner drink a load of ink than watch that video again Burn! January 15, 2012 at 7:03 pm #114258 siParticipant *Si being a bit serious alert* I love Norm’s Holly (I love Hattie’s Holly too, but you know what I mean), and, sadly, realising in recent years that he’s a bit of a miserable sod isn’t very nice. But: I don’t think we need to mention *every* instance of his online egotism and general gittiness. I know I posted that whole Twitter conversation before, but I think we should probably stop now, and go back to suggesting humourous (not nasty) heckles for Karl to shout. January 15, 2012 at 7:36 pm #114259 locusceruleusParticipant Fair enough, I mostly thought this was noteworthy because of it being a public conversation between two stars of the show. Had it been some of Norm’s de rigeur slagging off of the show or life in general I’d have let it pass. January 15, 2012 at 7:46 pm #114260 redhead85Participant I agree – it was more interesting than your run-of-the-mill moaning…. January 15, 2012 at 8:32 pm #114262 John HoareParticipant How many times has he joined Twitter now? Three? January 15, 2012 at 8:35 pm #114263 Pete Part ThreeParticipant I think we should stop calling out Norm for being a dick when he stops being a dick. January 15, 2012 at 8:54 pm #114264 John HoareParticipant It takes a special kind of talent for someone who moans about Red Dwarf to be unpopular with the Red Dwarf fandom. January 15, 2012 at 10:25 pm #114265 locusceruleusParticipant >It takes a special kind of talent for someone who moans about Red Dwarf to be unpopular with the Red Dwarf fandom. Most fans moan while still recognising the sincerity of the effort. Norm moans while (seemingly) hating and resenting everyone involved. January 16, 2012 at 12:17 am #114266 JonsmadParticipant >Norm moans while (seemingly) hating and resenting everyone involved. Whilst attending Sci fi and tv memorabillia type events or using Dwarf like marketing posters or tours. January 16, 2012 at 12:38 am #114268 John HoareParticipant Indeed. January 16, 2012 at 1:51 am #114269 pfmParticipant Doug should go all George Lucas on his ass and ban him from conventions! Hehe… January 16, 2012 at 6:06 am #114274 ori-STUDFARMParticipant Should order a cease and desisit against Normoan using his head in any way what-so-ever…. January 16, 2012 at 9:39 am #114275 Jonathan CappsKeymaster Yeah, I can’t see us getting unblocked by him any time soon. January 16, 2012 at 11:42 am #114277 Tarka DalParticipant > heckles for Karl to shout. I was thinking of asking him to sign my copy of Random Abstract Memory. January 16, 2012 at 11:52 am #114278 clemParticipant > I was thinking of asking him to sign my copy of Random Abstract Memory. LOL in the library! January 16, 2012 at 5:21 pm #114290 Mr-StabbyParticipant Bobby: @normanlovett1 For goodness sake don’t follow the most recent link I posted then. Get the bottle of ink out and have a sip :-) The thing is, us reading that know that this is written in a jokey way, but i imagine Norman will take it as Bobby replying in anger. January 19, 2012 at 7:11 pm #114336 genericnerdyusernameParticipant How can you read a message as being angry when it ends with a “:-)”? January 19, 2012 at 8:05 pm #114339 ori-STUDFARMParticipant Nothing what-so-ever to do with Norman….but a laugh all the same. Seb posted this earlier on Facebook…and I can not stop sharing it http://i.imgur.com/DFAzu.jpg January 21, 2012 at 12:36 pm #114404 locusceruleusParticipant >The thing is, us reading that know that this is written in a jokey way, but i >imagine Norman will take it as Bobby replying in anger. And after all, Norm’s only known Bobby for what, 15 years? January 21, 2012 at 1:19 pm #114406 ori-STUDFARMParticipant Yeah, but 7.5 years of that was Bobby telling him to smeg off! And the other 7.5 was Norm complaining to Doug for Bobby keep telling him to smeg off!
