Really sad to hear the news of Dave Myers’ death. His and Si’s public friendship was such a good role model for boys/men. A plutonic friendship of 2 ‘masc’ straight men who told each other they loved them. So refreshing to see this & it not be held together by laddish fucking ‘bantz’.
Beautifully said and so very true.
Between social media and streaming services, there's been so much convergence of popular culture/entertainment across the international anglosphere. But this is one UK program I never heard of, and I imagine that's true for most Americans. Sorry for your loss, and thanks for sharing!
Well this covered it better. amp.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...
A genuine friendship and a complete opposite to the fucking awful Paddy McGuinness/Freddie Flintoff/Gordon Ramsey/Gino DiCampo bullshit that seems to be constantly on TV.
I have a feeling there'll be lots of nice stories coming out about him in the next few days and weeks. Such a lovely man, it shines from him.
Agree. It's only guesswork unless you've met someone personally, but it's hard to fake that level of joviality for long. A very sad loss. Rest Easy Big Man.
So true Pete. They were an excellent example of two great mates who weren't shy of showing their affection to each other. As a straight guy it's refreshing to see. I can't be done with all that macho bullshit.
Well put.
Ah, spot on, sir. Genuinely heart-warming and refreshing.
