  • Russell sounds so innocent and sweet I cant believe he was a sex and drug addict

  • I couldn't figure out why I liked Russel Brand. Yes I saw he was intellegent, witty and handsom. But he is made out to be such a demon; a womaniser, drug addict, mischief maker. I think this helped figure it out, its his honesty, sincerity, and wonder of all things.

  • To be honest, I think Russell is a bit hurt that James would rather live on the streets rather than live with him. When he says stuff like "oh I think I might want some space too"

  • this is the real russell

  • bit shit that james died too.. obviously!

  • Comment removed

  • Fuckin Love that Pinback is played during this!! Awhh.. Pinback.. :)

  • @smallandonasearch What's the name of the Pinback song? :)....

  • @JellyBellySmalls it's Byzantine.. its on nautical antiques ;)

  • @smallandonasearch thanks :)

  • song name at the end in the taxi?

  • James is dead. As RB recently confirmed.

  • this is a good example that just because someone is houseless doesn't mean there homeless his home on on the street where he feels most at peace. a few day ago i ignored a houseless guy i felt so bad about it but it wasn't personal i just like keeping to myself.

  • He shouldn't have had a bath with james. russel manipulated him, treating him like a bit of whore. he was really ashamed.

  • song at the end is Byzantine by Pinback

  • I'm half way through reading Russell's Booky Wook (got the book yesterday morning and hardly put it down) and had to pause out of interest to see some of these RE:Brand episodes, more out of interest to see what Russell was like at this period in his life..I'm really taken back by this Homeless James one. It shows a very different kind and caring side to Russell.

  • i wizzed through this guy's lil booky wook in a couple of nights, it seems like the funniest parts of buddies life have all been unintentional.

  • Just downloaded and watched all the RE Brand eps. This is television, creative, at times controversial and pushing the boundaries of what society deems to be acceptable. Russ deserves an award for this.

  • @Wrxrtd When you say all episodes do you mean including the ones not available on Youtube? If so then could you PM me as where to get them.

  • This is so bizarre... human strangeness at its very very best.

  • LOL he PURE is!

  • haha its sooooo typical that the homeless dude was scottish LMAO!

  • where is he from then?

  • nah thats scottish mate.

  • didn't homless james run off with a hundred quid?

  • yeah, that was after this though. Russell kept in contact with him for awhile but then James ran off with Russell's drug money

  • he is such a lovable lil' slag, aint he? lol

  • eee thats terrible! he had a bath with him and everything! poor russell :( he did him a favour!

  • I decided to check this out because I am currently reading Russell's book where he talks quite extensively about this experience. Man , he was really fucked up during this (according to him)! Junkie!

  • Wheres JAMES now??

    Hope hes OK

    and not been eaten by rats n that

  • Does anyone know if part 1 of this is around anywhere?

  • te look of concern on Russell's face right at the end is heartbreaking!

  • what song plays whilst james is in the taxi?

  • I'm glad Russell Brand became a flavor here in the US because while a lot of people just see the wild-haired lothario, some of us are willing to seek out his other work and after I saw RE:Brand, I just fell in love with him. I don't know if any US "celebrities" would be so willing to be kind or embrace a homeless person, even if just for ratings. Russell's a decent human being, man.

  • True... but at the time Russell wasn't a celebrity. This show was on at like 3am on some obscure satellite channel, and most of the time he was high as fuck while filming, before or after. Don't get me wrong though, still love Russ.

  • "I don't know if any US "celebrities" would be so willing to be kind or embrace a homeless person"

    Because all are the same ?

    pfffft

  • not having a pop at you cus i know it wasnt your comment, but i couldn't find the other one.. but russell wasn't a celeb when he did this

  • "cus i know it wasnt your comment"

    What ? lol I'm confused

  • James is lovely!

  • quality tune thru out this video wonder if russel picked it himself?

  • Reading the booky wook, it seems obvious russel is a bit messed up here, but i amire the way he maintains a nice side.

  • i preferd brand before his image change even though he hasnt let it compromise his veiws id like to see him returm to this style of television becuase alot of the is really moving.

  • He's a legend.

    He was trying to be nice, and make James feel like a human.

    Although he was on drugs.

  • According to wikipedia Re:Brand will be released on DVD on April 6 2009...

  • where??

    in australia

  • did you find out yet?

  • On wikipedia it doesn't say where its gonna be released it just says the date, I assume it will released firstly in England??

  • thanx :)

  • It's out in Australia now

  • On tv? what channel?

  • No, I meant that the book has been released in Australia. But chanel 7 has actually purchased Ponderland, so they'll be showing that some time, but I don't know when exactly.

  • really? what channel?

  • Channel 7, Wednesdays at 10:30pm

  • what a show.. Seriously should bring this back.

  • re|:brand for dvd release!

  • I wanna watch all the re:brand series! where is it!???

  • yeah your right ,russell was a user here,i only think he never ended up on the streets cos his family were so tolerent

  • did you learn that from his book cause i nearly finished reading it fucking love it

  • That's sad

  • Aww i remember the good old days when most of the full episodes were on youtube:) I'm glad i saw them before thy got taken off:)

    I can hardly remember them though it was like a year ago :( the best one is "my Ol' Tart" and "Wanky, Wanky" :D I think the only one i havent seen in the one where he lives with a prostitute:/

  • song near the end is byzantine by pinback.

    nice depressing band to fit a depressing episode. chin up :D

  • Er. . . is there a part one and two?

  • to be honest Iv just been readin his book n he talks a bit about RE:Brand n he sorta ov says on the clips he propa looks like hes on heroin coz wen they made it he was reeli reeli reeli addicted to it but tbh i carnt tell that much here

  • that was a little sad, depressing is the better word actually.

  • Please, please, please, please can someone tell me what song is played at the end of this video (from 3 mins 44 secs onwards)

    Thank you in advance!!!

    xxx

  • That James is wearing nice clothes for a tramp.

  • they bought him some new clothes n stuff.

  • actually its russels old clothes

  • It aint though I've seen it, they buy him a sleeping bag as well as other stuff.

  • aw kl. i read in my booky wook that they also gave him russels old clothes

  • yay! fuck its probably only in uk format tho, isnt it?

  • Just use VLC on your computer - it will play anything :)

  • thanks, i'll keep that in mind!
