i think michael has always been a great entertainer. eccentric yes, but v. funny. i think alot of his strangeness now is related obviously to personal trauma he has endured over the last few years. eg his divorce, wifes death, then the unfortunate death of that guy at his house. alongside that he has had drinking problems, probably drugs of some kind too. his career has been damaged due to the death at his UK home, and he will never really make a come-back here again in all honesty. he will probably only ever get bit-parts in panto's coz no british tv channel will risk taking him on again. except the controversial channel 4 of course. eg big brother crap and preparing to have a muslim woman in a veil making some crazy speech on xmas day!!! true...
i think what nailed his coffin was the fact he fled the scene of the crime pure and simple. there is no justification for an innocent man doing that. the question is was he? but thats for another question.

I knew him when he was married to Cheryl, who was his manager, we all knew in the early 1980s that he was gay but they kept it under wraps and she lived with it, in fact I went to a party in Weybridge and they were both there, he went upstairs with a man and she turned a blind eye. When I told friends about this nobody believed me, yet when it came out in the media they split up, and she was saying she didn't have a clue he was gay, so knowing what I know I think the bloke's whole life is a bit of a sham and he'll do anything and everything to get the public's sympathy.

I think hes great when hes performing but a real strange character. Almost as if he is looking for help. The pool incident freaked me out abit, he is a dirty old man

I have never liked his humour.He delights in making people look small.He used to have some sort of talent show and tried to out sing and out dance everyone Belittling people in smarmy way.its ok having the crack but he is just too full of himself.-----Bet he took the mick out of people.His lifestyle precludes me from patronising him.Sorry this is as nice as I can be.

Nasty, nasty, sick man.
The way he behaved on CBB was appauling. He's an arrogant, self obsessed bully. I'm no Jodie Marsh fan, but he bullied her so badly. He can only be mentally ill, but he's too far gone for allowances to be made for his sickness.
I absolutely hate his guts.

Used to be the best TV entertainer that I have ever seen. Now he is virtually a warm-up act.

Michael Barrymore is a true professional. His private life is his own affair. Lets just give him credit for what he does best. He entertains.

Personally I have always found him to be a bore, with very little or no talent whatsoever.
