I'm glad that I watch neither programme.
wow!!!! I am soo watching that!! I wonder what he's gonna sing!!! :D
Who cares...it'll be embarressing! BARYY as Meat Laaf! 8O
Well whether you watch either programme or not or whether you think it'll be embarassing, tripe or the best thing since sliced bread, good luck to the guy! Anyone who spreads the word of the Loaf on prime time TV (which be definition is probably tatTV) is doing something right! :D

Haven't watched Eastenders in years. Is Barry, Pat Butcher's step-son? If he is then I've heard this actor sing before and he actualy has a decent voice, he may make a fairly good job - pity he hasn't got Meat's passion or sex appeal! Bet he sings 2out of 3 - don't they all!
Erm... no, not really, the first three Meat's did Bat Out Of Hell, I'd Do Anything For Love, and Hot Summers Night...
All I can say is best of luck to him. I just hope he chooses a good song, I would love to hear someone else sing FCOL.
Big Fat guy like that.......Must br Dead Ringer 8O

I thought he was pretty good, I'm no fan of eastenders and didn't know who he was. Thoght he pulled it off ok.
Anyone who gets our man noticed on prime time saturday tv deserves our support.

An....interesting performance :?
All credit to the guy because you could tell he knew the song and he knew it well, and he's got a lot more guts than me for doing it in the first place, but you know what stupid little thing got me?!! never when I've seen You Took The Words done live have I seen Meat drop to his knees! No!
I liked how he moved round the stage abit!! Not bad!! :P
was everyone out saturday night,no ones posted about barry from eastenders winning cleb stars doing MEATLOAF he sang you took the words & was really good anyone watch it or was i the only one to video it as iwas out what a boost for meatloaf publicity :oops: 8) :oops:
Hi Chris, Take a look in General Messages. I've moved this over there!

I thought he was great, he'd got the notes, the image, everything! I was very pleasantly surprised especially after he said he thought his voice sounded most like Cliff Richard!! I thought Andy was really good, but Shaun Williamson was...even better..I can't believe I'm saying that...
Daily Mail Thursday 6th May 2004
quote "Actor Shaun Williamson reveals he could only impersonate Meat Loaf on Celebrity Stars in their Eyes because of his physique. The former Eastender says "I was restricted by my size - it was a choice between Meat Loaf and Pavarotti, and Brian Blessed got Pavarotti, I actually wanted to do Bjork, but they weren't buying that" :roll:
Good point! He definitely couldn't have done Cliff Richard or Robbie!
