Piece starts about 9:50, Webb BvG appears about 11:07, gets about two sentences in the edit that the Common Purpose wonks allowed to air.

He does own some sort of media company although he's never really went into it. Seems like it must be him, sounds the same, quite tall too.

I was hoping he would slap that woman and do her in the gary, she's what's wrong with this country... "won't someone PLEASE think of the children?!?!"...

Sweep stake on how long it'll be before he mentions it in his next vid?

He's got another job to mention too, he's a editor/reviewer/whatever for MCN now. Pretty sure it's MCN anyway, I saw it on Twitter a while ago and it would explain why he's been riding around Europe again on a new Beemer.

I wasn't even watching it but when the guy started to speak i just thought I recognised it from somewhere. Took another listen to pin it down. If its not him its his voice doppelganger that's for sure.

The only time I remember seeing a good reflection of him is in one of his American videos.

Yes we are.

Considering that he's made a point of keeping his vlogging and his career at a discrete distance, I wonder if he didn't think he'd be recognised, or if this is the next stage in selling out, boo, sell out going legit and such.

My bad, thought it must have been a voice over piece. Probably is him, would fit.

She did seem to get rather angry quite quickly when someone dared to have a view that differed from hers.

I quite liked the people who didn't find the cartoons offensive, until it was suggested that they should find them so and then became offended. Rolling Eyes

LoL. He's been hiding his face forever and now it's all there for everyone to see.

All that effort for nothing, what was the point in all the anonymity malarkey. Pfft!

Ahhh cheers, I see it now.

If you search Chris Eades and look at his LinkedIn page it has the picture for his dead pixels company and its a similar font to practically everything he does including Jizz Machine stickers. Also it says his goal is to go around the world on a motorbike...

Yeah, its definately him.

On Linkedin, his profile says

Quote:
Goal = Ride round the world on a motorbike, but not in a scummy camp site way - More like superbikes and luxury hotels. innit.

Specialties:Cooking Birds Eye potato waffles - they are just so darn versatile.

His profile image is in the right kind of style, too:

https://media.licdn.com/media/p/1/000/0d4/116/23b0ab9.jpg

It's definitely him.
