Yeah, I saw that on the news. HSA laughed like a drain; I actually had to admit that I strangely respected him for it. There are lots of celebs who like to go around being "mad" and "contraversial" but I thought it took a lot of guts to pull a stunt like that, no matter what his angle.

um, what exactly did he do and why?

― MarkH (MarkH), Wednesday, 15 October 2003 07:16 (twenty-three years ago)

He drove a truck into Downing Street (yes, trying to drive through the barricades and things) saying that it was an anti-war protest, saying that bombing and action in Iraq only lead to more terrorism.

razor to trim his hair, according to his wife.

who needs to trim their hair when they're outdoors?

I have a strange respect for him too. The real life news these days is starting to look like it was scripted by someone the Onion sacked for being too dark.

It's funny really, if anyone else had done it they would have got much more publicity. As it is, everyones just 'ah that crazy Cwith Eubank' about it.

Hey Dave, how was the trip?

― Pinkpanther (Pinkpanther), Thursday, 16 October 2003 11:13 (twenty-two years ago)

hey dave, was wondering where you were

― stevem (blueski), Thursday, 16 October 2003 12:45 (twenty-two years ago)

i´m still on the trip - i´m in an internet cafe in iceland with one of the best cups of coffe i´ve ever had...

After Eubank arrived for the first time in his truck, a policeman told him: "I am issuing you with a ticket and asking you to produce your licence and papers within seven days."

Eubank replied: "But officer, you must use your power as a man of the law and arrest me."

A brother actually begging to be arrested? Parallel universe! Never mind. Prolly his celeb DNA squeaking for attention. (There are less-intrusive ways to protest Iraq, after all.)

chris eubank is black?

― RJG (RJG), Thursday, 16 October 2003 21:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Indeed, Rich. Look at the pic closely--though he's nearly hidden by the cop. Brown melanin sticks out:>
