Paul Burrell - yet another stupid interview
Have just read an interview with Paul Burrell in the Daily Mail magazine. Honestly, that bloke winds me up and I don't know what possessed me to read it. I think it was utter boredom.
There is a smiley photo of him with his family outside his huge American mansion he has bought using the proceeds of his disloyalty. He tries to justify his actions and fails miserably - yet again. He also compares his celebrity status and, when bleating on again about the way he was treated by the British public, states "I don't think I had ever seen one individual so vilified for being innocent"... "It's very Beckham-esque. Our national hero gets torn apart. It's very sad".
What? What? Excuse me, but is this cretin now comparing himself to David Beckham and rating himself as a 'national hero'? Does this man's self-opinion know no bounds?
The Mail does balance it up with a few cutting remarks, and justifiably so.

You'd never get away with it in GD or Politics!
He did come over as a complete creep though, didn't he?
The royals have become a cretinous Dynasty-esque soap opera, so this Man is only reinforcing the myth.
"The Queen said I could keep them for safekeeping!"
Ah! It all makes sense now, with an alibi like that and how much it was in the media you'd think someone would have noticed earlier. The guy wouldn't even be famous if it wasn't for the dragged out trial and investigation.
***Runs, runs as fast as she can for the hills, never to be seen again***
I found him entertaining on IACGMOOH for all the wrong reasons.
In his words he went on the show to be "Paul Burrell" and not to speak about Diana, then proved as soon as he was in the jungle, that he was only there to remind everyone present who he used to work for - but also what happened to him as a result.
Some of his interviews in the bush tucker telegraph were cringemaking, as he often, subconsciously, imitated Diana - lowing his eyes and looking up through his lashes, and speaking in a shy voice. Other times he forgot himself and was as camp and as high as a kite.
However, after saying all that - he stuck the boot into the anally retentive Windsors big time, and continues to do so, albeit through cringemaking interviews such as the one in the first post.
He's oily, smarmy, creepy, subservient and irritating - but the Windsors are a LOT worse, IMO.
I quite agree, his relationship with Diana seemed all too close.
Must say I'm enjoying his book though
If he wrote it himself, he's a very good writer.
