No he won't be

(Sorry all Barrymore fans).
I never understood why he was successful. Irritating man.

Just different sense of humour I think and nothing wrong with that.

Re: Michael Barrymore
Have never liked this fella, always seemed a bit seedy to my way of thinking. One anecdotal story I was given some time back by an acquaintance, suggested that Barrymore was predatory towards young men and boys. I am unable to confirm this story it was just something I was told. One thing I can confirm is that I never found him the least bit talented.
