Andi Peters' Emotional Surprise Reunion With Emma Forbes

I remember Andi Peters, as I recall it he was one of THE most lightweight, non-threatening and inoffensive people to ever walk into a TV studio. Which I guess is exactly what you need to be when you are a children's TV presenter. It's a "skill set" which drives insane any adults who have to put up with it for more than about five minutes, but it's kinda good that there is a niche in the world for even this. Although, although... wasn't there just a slight feeling that he took it too far? It was kind of the opposite of preparing his viewes for the real world; being talked to as though they were a tiny delicate porcelain thing wrapped in cotton-wool, with the fear that if he dropped his voice to a more normal pitch then they would be crushed beneath it like eggshells facing a tank.

And of course, given all that, the stuff about him being addicted to crystal meth, threatening that guy with a gun etc etc was just a total headfuck. Everyone going "It's the quiet ones" or "It's always the ones that you least expect" - but it's not is it? Once in a blue moon, every thousand years or so it dues happen I guess, fair enough, but it's not "always the quiet ones" at all, we just remember it when it is the quiet one. Maybe not the American members or those listed as "Misc. Other" - but every single person from the UK Iis gonna remember that thing about him being a meth-head and how it came out with him fucking losing it, having a public breakdown in which he waved a gun around demanding a blowjob from anyone in range.

Literally no idea who Emma Forbes is though, no idea whatsoever. I guess, whoever she is she never had a drug inflicted breakdown to get her lodged in the national consciousness.
