I think Ricky G showed what he was capable of when he had to fill in for less than 10 mins at some charity concert when Elton John (I think) was having a Drama Queen moment before coming on.
Can't remember what the gig was but he had absolutely no idea what to do. It was painfull to watch.
Billy C would have revelled in it. They'd have been dragging him off when the main act finally appeared and the crowd would have been none to happy to let him go.

He pronounces soft "R's" ie he'd pronounces his own name Vicky or Wicky which is irritating if you're on telly, elocution lessons beckon VWicky + he's not really that funny TBH.
  
  I think he's closer to David Brent than he'd like to admit.

Totally over rated as a comedian and his 'I am the funniest guy alive' attitude is at best misjudged......and at worst arrogant beyond his (limited) talent.

Watched an awards show recently (British Comedy Awards??) and when he won his award the whole audience booed him when they tried to show his acceptance video (which was of course full of self praise)

In case you werent sure after that, NO I am NOT a fan of his......!!!
