anyone watch that BBC3 thing last night where various 'troubled' personalities attempt to explain their errant ways by blaming everything on their mam? John Leslie was the first one and came across as a misogynist mummy's boy still in denial and stan collymore was last night's subject. say what you like about the under-performing, sexually voracious, woman beating perv but he's nothing if not honest. I always thought he got a raw deal during the 'villa' phase of his career - no matter how much dough you're on no-one is immune from mental illness.....50k a week and he's depressed etc etc - here stan revisited uttoxeter baths (where he seems to have spent most of his childhood) and came across as a complicated yet brutally honest and articulate man who's early life and need for affection/affirmation lead him astray.\ he wasn't self-pitying about it either and, for once, it looks as if his old girl was the source of much of his grief. if he hasn't acted yet, with that accent and his good looks, surely there's a role in a future Shane film for the lad.
