Rupert Everett has had to apologise to the British forcesfor his words he had said on a TV programme.

Ceefax reporting that he said "The whole point of being in the army is wanting to get killed,
A transcript also mentions Rupert calling the British Forces "Wimps" and "Pathetic" and they are continually whining about going to war and getting killed.

However he then states he was not questioning the bravery of the troops in an apology.

His father is a retired Major apparently.

:mad:

.......When in actual fact I joined as Aircrew because of the promise of:

Girls
Pop-star wages
Work hard play hard ethos
Jollys to exotic locations
Hotels on Det
Rates
A great bunch of mates who don't take life too seriously
And more Girls

my biggest moan is that I don't get as much as I used to
(except for the wages....PA Spine) :}

According to the Melbourne Herald Sun he said, "The whole point of being in the Army is going to war and getting yourself blown up. That and p---ing on prisoners. Yet we all get shocked by Abu Ghraib."

Poor bloke; 49 years old and he hasn't sorted himself out yet. Sad, I call it.

You could always tattoo a target on his chin then staple his bottom lip to his eyebrows to make it more visible.

Everyone in our society has the right to free speech, but when your considerable income depends on your public image and popularity, then perhaps this was a missed opportunity for little Rupert to keep his gob shut. How about an organized campaign to boycott his work and any advertisers associated with it? That's the kind of thing that hurts these Hollywood types.

I would greatly appreciate some help with a problem I have that sadly as it happens it also involves a recent death in service and perhaps a harrier or two. Can anyone on UK tasking with JFH on Thursday "PM" me so I can ensure that a certain form reaches a certain desk. I have gone the official route but just want to make sure as short notice isn't something creaking Govt admin types do terribly well.
I'm sorry to ask and wouldn't if it wasn't worth a go...and if there is no reply then at least I tried.

I personally joined to have an aircraft accident. Ideally, I would get the opportunity to bang out of the best, most expensive fighter going. If I couldn't do that, I'd prang the next best.

Sounds a bit like an interview for Bin Laden's lot, don't you think?

Maddness, please ignore this twonk. :ok:

I recall seeing Rupert Everett on a TV chat show a few years ago. One of the other guests was Bernard Manning who proceeded to take the pi$$ out of him something chronic. Brilliant it was!!

TALIBAN forces in southern Afghanistan were in retreat last night after a fresh offensive by Britain's nancy boy actors.

'Those Taliban get me so worked up'
The absolute darlings flounced into combat late last week and took-up a series of extremely limp-wristed positions along the Helmand River.

After applying some moisturiser and waxing their chests, they began wave after wave of beastly, high-pitched attacks on key Taliban targets.

An Army spokesman said: "They were soooo well organised. Each platoon wore colour-coded bandanas and everyone had plenty of mineral water.

"There was a slight hitch when 'C' company forgot their motivation, but we just sat them down and said, 'the Taliban are all smelly and evil and you're the big, tough soldier who's avenging the death of a very close personal friend'.

"Major Everett was especially brave, sneaking up on this really butch Taliban fighter and then slapping him very hard on the upper arm until they both started crying.

"Then they sat down and watched St Trinian's until the Taliban fellow shot himself."

He added: "Major Everett is understandably very shaken by the whole experience and has retired to his tent with a Cadbury's Chocolate Orange and a copy of Tatler."

Never heard of him. Would like to have seen Bernard Manning take him apart though.

Just ignore him. Gainesy - he's not worth your wrath.

yes, I'm going to stop watching Shrek in protest, that'll scare him.

It could be that you lot can't see beyond your own ego's of course. So what if he expresses an opinion, that's his right, which we all fight to protect....

Although to be fair I think he has a point. In the same way that Military Personnel join the Armed Forces to be killed, Actors join their profession to be abused on the casting couch by some fat casting agent, to fail their auditions and work as frustrated waiters in LA doing 'tricks for sailors' when their tips don't pay the rent. I've also heard he does it for money, with men.
