    Russell Brand: From Comic To Icke-Esque Conspiracist & Possible Abuser?

    Full story: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7698417.stm I'm not a fan of Brand, though I don't mind Ross, but hasn't this got a teensy bit out of proportion? How many of those complaining (and isn't complaining easy these days?) have actually heard the programme? I did hear it...
