Don't get me wrong, I think Russell Brand is very talented and clearly a huge Morrissey fan. I think it a little dissapointing, however that he featured in such an event, with a such a blatent Royal theme.

        Russell Brand-Bowing and Scraping? Surely Not? (Score:1)
        I haven't seen the performance yet, is there a You Tube link?
        It's hard to imagine Russell 'bowing and scraping' to anyone other than in some unimaginably perverted sexual escapade.

        After all, this is a man who proudly admits to shoving drugs up his back passage to get through customs:

        How did he get 'security clearance' to entertain Mrs Windsor?

        Never mind Polish/Russian immigrants: Surely we need to rid the country of toxic entertainers like this Mr Brand, who flaunts his 'alternative' lifestyle so brazenly. And will probably have an even worse impact on my teenage boy than I will, as his father!
        I've never felt so 'disgusted of Tunbridge Wells' in my life!

        Joking aside: I hope there was an 'ironic subtext' to this: He was so 'out there'.

        It would be a real shame if he started to have a sensible haircut and do 'proper' interviews, rather than rip the piss out of everything and everyone. I can't see him replacing Parky!
        Kind regards

          His attempts at ingratiating himself to the queen are a bit embarassing.
          However, I do love that our Moz was acknowledged:)
