Is it true that in his previous life, Brand was a heroin addict? I can see why being the quick-witted junkie reformer is a good angle to play, but whether or not people find him to be generally funny or entertaining bears little importance as regards the complaint that has been made against him (and JR).

yes it is true Pyle.

British humour is unique. A humour that even Americans can't understand; Slapstick, one liner, smutty etc. Not offensive or vulgar. There's a thin line between smut and vulgarity which seems to have been crossed by both Brand and Ross as they seek to push the boundaries. They have failed.

Vulgarity and offensive should be left to the Americans.

Well put Huddster.

Brand and Ross have been suspended and their shows taken off air whilst the Beeb investigate this whole affair.

18,000 complaints. How many of those jumped on the bandwagon? 90%? 99%? The Brits don't do complaining, so WTF is going on here?

I'm not saying they don't have a reason to complain of course.
