The Muppet Show - Chris Langham Closing

[6musky]

What was Langham famous for at the time this was filmed?

[kiserd13]

@6musky being a peado!

[BBFCFilmUpdates]

Even if he is innocent, it's a bit risky for Disney to show this isn't it?

[Lamvesp]

nonce.

[TheHibbleton]

@Lamvesp Shit-spouting twat.

[Lamvesp]

@TheHibbleton nonce appeasing shitcunt.

[TheHibbleton]

@Lamvesp Do you believe all the shit you read in the tabloids, you gullible fuck?

[Lamvesp]

@TheHibbleton Actually I don't, in fact i avoid newspapers and the media in general because they are full of untruths and lies. However you desperatlly thick fuck,, Langham was found guilty in a court of law so go fuck your peado apeasing self. You like him sicken me to core. Wake up you dumbed down minimally conscious shitferbrains arsepiece.

[TheHibbleton]

@Lamvesp Yeah, a court of law in which the judge explicitly said Chris Langham wasn't actually a paedophile, you fucking reactionary little shitweasel.

[ACNC1]

was this the show that Richard Prior cancelled?

[Bladepaw18]

I gotta remember the electronic larynx bit! That'll be too fun to do to someone!!!!!

[spaceoreo]

Like I said...go and do some research.

[magrev69]

pervert

[spaceoreo]

@magrev69 You're an ignorant fool.

[magrev69]

@spaceoreo Are you trying to defend a paedophile?

[spaceoreo]

@magrev69 No, because the judge at his trial explicitly stated that langham is not a paedophile. You go off and do a little independent reading, and when you're done maybe you won't sound so much like a tabloid-regurgitating zombie.

[magrev69]

@spaceoreo ok he just likes looking at pics of children

[balthier1983]

@magrev69 listen to spacey and go do some research, your argument here caused me to do said research and i can tell you now, if you did it and kept your current opinion, you my friend would be classed as a biggot and the problem with this world, self opinionated people with no understanding of life or the world, only that you want it your way and your way only

[balthier1983]

@magrev69 "He knows he is bad news in an industry where reputation is everything. As Armando Iannucci, one of the few people willing to be quoted on the record and publicly stand by him, puts it, "There is a terrible absurdity about his position, in that what shapes your life is not what you do but how the ' media chooses to portray you." As another friend says: "The juicy bits have been illuminated by the red-tops and the rest has been ignored. He is the victim of an awful, mob blood lust.""

[dutchgoing]

@balthier1983 He is the 'victim' of British Justice which works slowly but more often than not gets the right result. What is the 'rest that has been ignored'? Did Langham apologise for financing the paedo porn business since he was convicted? Has he admitted to being a sick pervert? I don't think he has just yet.

[dutchgoing]

@spaceoreo The judge said that Langham had no sexual interest in children. Langham tells everybody that the judge said he was not a paedophile. Do you see the mis-representation and rationalisation he is employing. The two statements don't mean quite the same thing. I would not let Langham near any children or teenagers of mine, let's put it that way. 15 videos of children being sexually tortured tells me everything about him even if he isn't a paedophile.

[kiserd13]

That dirty peado got caught downloading cat 5 child porn for 'research material' if he wanted to do it in a proper way he would of contacted a proper law agency. i wouldn't listen to the law courts in the uk they protect the interest of the crook instead of the victim.

[Bjarku]

@magrev69 i would defend a paedophile. paedophiles are human beings too, and they need help

[fivebearrugs]

Chris Langham was also one of the Centurian soldiers in Monty Python's Life of Brian :) He's in the scene when Michael Palin announces that "he has a very good fwend in Wome called Biggus Dickus"

[anthonyjthorne]

Poor old Chris, a very funny talented guy. I hope he's doing alright with himself these days.

[DarthWill3]

"It's a classic show business story Chris Langham walked into this theater a NOBODY!"

"And he's walking out a HAS-BEEN!"

"DOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!

[Potatosaladgirl]

Well that's ironic...

[fivebearrugs]

I noticed how the end credits are on the left side, just like in Season 1...

[GarethKennedyLlanrws]

Where is this then?

[legodirectorHD]

early 80's.

[dfarmbrough]

I loved this - I saw it when it first came out and was so happy to see Chris on there. My uncle was videotape editor on the show too :-)

[kezza249]

there's someone i didn't expect to see in the muppet show!!!

[TomIvorJonesConwy]

I love langham great guy the cops got him on bull shit

[6musky]

@TomIvorJonesConwy

No, the cops got him because he downloaded videos of children being raped and tortured.

[fivebearrugs]

The Muppet Morsels were fun, but I would prefer them in "paragraph" style instead of "subtitle" style.

Btw...you wouldn't happen to have any of the show OPENINGS, would you?

[vegasguy21]

They had some huge stars on the original Muppet Show. And Chris Langham.

[fivebearrugs]

Chris is a Muppet Show writer; he was brought in a last-minute replacement for Richard Pryor, who, um, shall we say wasn't feeling well at the time. :)

[Scooterpiety]

IE he burned himself up while freebasing ;)

[fivebearrugs]

Wink-wink, nudge-nudge... He did appear as the Balloon Vendor in The Muppet Movie; oddly enough it was Gonzo who got "high" and not him. :p

Nevertheless, I hope Seasons 4 and 5 will be unedited for DVD...it would be nice if they include a bonus DVD: Season 1 Edits with all the edited stuff put in so we can "technically" have a Complete Season 1 :)

[Scooterpiety]

I'd like to see some bloopers, dang it! :)

[ctdsnark]

@fivebearrugs Wait---Richard Pryor was going to be on The Muppet Show?

What a loss to posterity.

[fivebearrugs]

@ctdsnark Yup, there were plans for Mr. Pryor to be a guest, but as I mentioned in my comments (wow, a year ago! lol), Pryor, uh, had a few...issues...and had to be replaced at the last minute by Langham.
