Actually come to think of it, it probably just means that his big mate
Ricky Gervais will do it instead as an audition for the Oscars.
On Loose Women, Ricky was asked about Ross and he said, "I really want
to be the only person in this business not to have a view on this."

When asked if had been in contact with Ross he said, "I haven't, I
sort of decided that the last thing Jonathan needed at this moment was
some comedian ringing him up."
" Some comedian" He's being a bit presumptious calling himself that
is he not?

By "some comedian" he most likely means someone who Ross can't take seriously,
as he (Tomlinson) has no useful professional advice or experience to offer.
Just the usual cliches and maybe expressions of sympathy.

As in you "don't want to be listening to a comedian like me."

I'm sure that line must have featured in "Brookside" at least once.

I admittedly didn't see the whole article, but I thought it was Ricky Gervais
rather then Ricky Tomlinson who was being referenced.

Oops ! I didn't read it either. I don't know what made me think of Tomlinson
except the actual phrase. Which could also be translated as "timewaster"
I suppose. I didn't realise Gervais did downmarket daytime stuff like "Loose Women".



He must have something coming out ..he has been on every damn
programme over the past week or so .
