I find him quite funny, with all his naive comments and bizarre theories ... But is his stupidity for real or is it just a persona?? ... I don't know what to believe although Gervais said that the "bald headed manc tw*t" really is that much of an "idiot" ..

Persona.

Hmmm.....I think he is 75% 'buffoon'. Easily one of the funniest blokes around- comedian or not.

Real.
He also already has about five threads dedicated to him! This being a recent one https://www.comedy.co.uk/forums/thread/16063/

So I shall have to close this one, I'm afraid.
