    Are we over Russell Brand yet?

    Seeing him mentioned by Beans, and because I've been meaning to ask for ages, are we sick of the silly haired jester yet?

    He's everywhere; radio, TV, papers (I'm told) and you just know he'll be doing adverts soon.

    I was sick of him when he first appeared and that opinion has not faltered. I am yet to hear anything funny come out of his mouth.

    Should I feel lucky not having a TV at uni, only reading the papers occasionally, only listening to certain radio and avoiding all adverts then?

    I think I'd put him only slightly behind Chris Moyles in the list of people I really don't like because their ego is bigger than they are.

    It's one thing to have self confidence and belief, it's another to love yourself so much that you think everything you do is good and nobody does it better than you.

    I think he's great, but he is over-exposed. I would advise people to check out his stand up show.

    His best line must have been:

    "I actually think Geldof's the best person to speak about famine, seeing as he's been dining out on I Don't Like Mondays for thirty years...".

    I like the guy, couldn't live with him, but I like him.

    I think he's getting less funny the bigger his hair gets... not sure I always appreciate his er.. humour.. but I can see why people like him too- he's kinda different.

    I'm not keen on him, based of what I've seen of him on TV. Give me a good old-fashioned Stephen Fry or Jeremy Hardy any day.

    As a Kenneth Williams tribute act he's reasonable enough, but nowhere nearly as good as the hype would have you believe.

    A humorous Hammers fan with a fondness for innuendo? Oily is Russell Brand.
