He's a likeable guy who is good at what he does. This thread is dripping in homophobia. Disliking a homosexual doesn’t necessarily mean someone is homophobic does it? It’s because he’s white

Back in the day the BBC had an affected standard accent - much lampooned by Harry Enfield. These days the bbc's standard accent appears to be "affected mincer". It appears that if you are male your best chance of getting a job is to adopt it. They've have many versions of this, including the american mincer (Gambacini), the ultra mincer (Carr), the scouse mincer (O'Grady), the soft irish mincer (Norton), the chilled out mincer (Winton (RIP)). Rylan is simply the latest darling of the camp. I doubt anyone gives a stuff about DJ's sexual preferences, it's simply that this high pitched whiny nasal affectation is irritating beyond belief, I dread the day Ken Bruce retires... What I don’t understand is why it seems everyone talks like they are some wannabe gangster from the rough side of town and down with the ‘hood. It all started with Eastenders and now even when some youth is interviewed on TV they sound like 50 Cent...it’s absolute bollocks. I’m all for accents....it’s part of our make up, but this gangster shit pisses me off. I make a point when someone talks to me in this way of asking what part of the Bronx they are from or to talk more slowly as I don’t understand....miraculously they then talk normally and not as if they are about to pop a cap in your ass.

Stealing Oxygen? Really?
He's a decent enough youth, who has made the most of his limited talent, fair play to him.

It's like the fake Jamaican patois a lot of British youngsters seem to use, whether in black or white gangs. I suppose they think it makes them look 'cool'. To this I can only say: Ye Gods!

Kate Price is a similar annoying "celeb" and she's the biggest heterosexual slapper going.(probably had a bit of both though). I suppose it's not on slating her due to having a mixed race, disabled son.

on Radio 2 now doing some sort of 24 hour mince-athon should be a piece of cake for him doesnt appear to be anything else other than that really unfortunate - he was on Steve Wright and i accidentally heard him I know not to listen to his weekend show -'The Saturday Morning Mince' or whatever its called Why not just call him a faggot and have done with it?

Why not just call him a faggot and have done with it? i didnt know he was gay. Plenty of straight people mince, eg Paul Gambaccini, i just dislike rylance Erm Paul Gambaccini? The guy who's so straight that's he been married to a man for the last 6 or 7 years? That Paul Gambaccini yeah?

Edit -Paul Gambaccini sorry yes jut looked him up on wikipedia. Literally didnt know he was gay until just. Kenneth Williams, Sid James, David Walliams. straight men who occasionally mince for comedy purposes Kenneth Williams! You've got to be taking the piss? And Sid James, a mincer? wtf?

he's been on all fucking day, "singing" along to some great records and murdering them. I'm happy to donate £10 to children in need on the basis that he shuts up.
The bbc have now gone full hog and we now even have the affected mince voice for the traffic news on zoe balls show - Richie something or other.

It may be car crash radio but fair play to him to volunteering to sing for 24 hour in aid of a good cause.

Fair enough i'll concede a point on Kenneth Williams. All I had to go on as a child was Willo the wisp, a cartoon about a glow in the dark fairy that danced in the woods and it was difficult to determine his personality from that.
I stand by my original point that plenty of straight men mince for one reason or another. David Walliams is a classic example. He has dated some of the biggest sex symbols of the last decade -Patsy Kensit, Abi Titmuss, Emily Scott, Catherine Tate, Lisa Snowdon, A Spice Girl.
Russell Brand is another.
Back to Rylance -I honestly didnt know he was meant to be singing on the radio this afternoon. They were playing songs and i could hear a faint tuneless mewl or warbling in the background at certain points but thought he was just being his usual unfunny self. But as others have said, if it helps homeless children, then good for him.
Hopefully the voice will give way altogether and we'll be spared his inane radio ramblings for several weeks

There are far bigger dickheads in the media than Rylan, who genuinely seems like a decent bloke. He's camp but he's hardly a mega-mincer either, seems unfair to criticise him on that.
I'm not a massive fan of this karaoke thing, however.

Off on a tangent,but Kenneth Williams' diaries are an excellent read,a very acerbic personality,utterly despised the 'Carry on' franchise... Sid James possessed one of the he dirtiest laughs I think i've ever heard.
