Leigh Francis
 
What's your opinion of the man behind Bo Selecta and Celebrity Juice? Do you find him funny or not? Do you think he's funny regardless of his persona or does it depend on the character?

Smithy 27-03-2012 10:41 PM

Yes, as keith lemon he is hilar, i've never really watched bo selecta so i don't have much of an opinion on it

Locke. 27-03-2012 10:45 PM

He's alright. It's annoying how people think Keith Lemon is real though

Z 27-03-2012 10:46 PM

Agreed Locke, like when you see celebrities refer to him as Keith Lemon when he's not on Celebrity Juice, I wonder if they actually know that's not his real name

Black Dagger 27-03-2012 10:48 PM

Love Keith Lemon.

Hated his other work though.

Shaun 27-03-2012 10:50 PM

I did like the Keith Lemon character to begin with but 'Celebrity Juice' is a terrible show.

Patrick 27-03-2012 10:50 PM

I met him in November briefly - he's alot different in real life, seems quite quiet and serious.

But Keith as a character is brilliant.

It's beginning to get old and boring now.
They need to change it up abit - the guests, rounds and gags are the same old sh*t now.

Shaun 27-03-2012 10:52 PM

And "Proper Crimbo Selecta" is an amazing Xmas song.

Z 27-03-2012 10:53 PM

They shouldn't have included Rufus Hound as a regular guest. Regular team captains, yes, and have him stand in for whenever Holly's pregnant or Fearne's nostrils have caught in the wind and she's been blown over the channel - but it makes it stale when you have the same four people with the same banter and then only three different faces to change it up... and often they get people to come back for a second or third time. I enjoy Celebrity Juice but it needs a kick up the bum.

Kizzy 27-03-2012 10:57 PM

It must be lee? as leigh is the female spelling?...
Anyhoo, he is a leeds lad and there is a real keef lemon who he and my niece know .....he has never given the lad a penny for using his name either tight yorkshire twonk! ...gotta love him though :)

Jack_ 27-03-2012 11:00 PM

In character as Keith Lemon he's funny, the appearances he used to make on BBLB and stuff were just hilarious. I can't be bothered with Celebrity Juice though.

I've seen a few interviews of him when he's himself and it's so odd. But yeah, it's annoying that people think Keith Lemon is a 'real' person.

LaLaLand 27-03-2012 11:16 PM

He's hilarious, I'm getting a bit tired of Keith Lemon though and would love an Avid Merrion/Bo' Selecta comeback for a while!

Jords 28-03-2012 12:07 AM

I only recently found out Keith Lemon is just a character. Dont see why people would find it annoying LOL just correct them.

Scarlett. 28-03-2012 12:42 AM

Keith Lemon is a better public persona than Avid Merrion was, but Avid was hilarious on BBLB, effing and blinding at 6pm xD

2baha.

Mrluvaluva 28-03-2012 01:43 AM

I have really liked everything he's done (apart from Sing if you can). Celebrity Juice started to get a bit tired, although still very funny, but I think some of the sketches/games on the last couple of shows have improved it. Still waiting for The Bang Tidy Show.

Doogle 28-03-2012 03:19 PM

Celeb Juice was brilliant until it was the same thing every single time. :bored: Rufus is awful, the other 3 could have kept it going but Rufus is just urgh. I still haven't seen this guy out of the Keith Lemon character yet though haha. I wonder what he's like with the Celeb Juice cast backstage.

Livia 28-03-2012 03:23 PM

Can't stand Leigh Francis nor any of his characters... but agree with Shaun - Proper Crimbo was a great Christmas song.

Me. I Am Salman 28-03-2012 04:43 PM

Yeah I think he's okay but Celeb Juice is getting boring I agree
He has a new show coming soon though

LEMONAID is ITV1’s brand new Saturday night family comedy entertainment series featuring Keith Lemon (aka Leigh Francis) as host. This amazing new show will see Keith, aided by a different celebrity helper each week, tackling a variety of dilemmas and helping dreams come true in his own mischievous way

King Gizzard 29-03-2012 06:14 AM

Alright in moderation

Niamh. 29-03-2012 09:45 AM

I saw the advertisement for "Lemonaid" tonight. Apparently it is a program "harking back to the days of Jim'll Fix It". Starts next week.
