Germy Beetle Jeremy Beadle, aka Jezzer, aka Bezzers was a British TV personality known for his beard, his taste for practical jokes, his deformed hand and his beard. At one point he was voted the most hated man in Britain, ahead of even Saddam Hussein; this was because he had recently gassed even more Kurds than Saddam did and, unlike Saddam, did it in front of a studio audience for laughs. Sick fuck.

[edit] Origins

Jezzer was conceived at Bristol Zoo sometime between 1943 and 1947. It was widely believed that at least one of the parents was a Penguin and recent DNA tests (Performed by Jerry Springer) proved that the other parent was indeed "maybe" Noel Edmunds. Shunned from a young age by both parents and peers, by the age of five Jeremy was urinating in car exhausts and replacing bottles of milk with bottles of LSD. This outburst of creativity landed Jeremy his first job, with Channel 4.

[edit] Hand

“Jeremy Beadle had a small penis. On the other hand it was massive.”

~ Oscar Wilde on Beadle's cock

Jeremy was working as a tour guide for school groups in a cereal factory. Along with several other visitors who also lost limbs, Jeremy lost his hand in an accident when a machine that boxed shreddies went haywire during the visit. Unfortunately, during the surgery, the doctors mistakenly reattached the arm of an 8 year old catholic schoolgirl.

A common myth is that Jeremy's hand came about as a result of selling half his fingers to the Devil, in exchange for his powers of japery.

[edit] TV Career

Jeremy found fame with his first series Jezzer's Gonna Get Ya, where Jeremy would hide in dustbins, jumping out and waving his tiny hand at unsuspecting passers-by. The series won an unprecedented twenty BAFTAs and thirteen Golden Globes, and was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1986.

Jeremy's second series, Voyeurism For Laughs, was less well received, but gained a cult following that still exists today in some parts of the UK, going by the name "Happy Slapping". In a 2002 interview, Beadle said of the show "I just wanted to get some videos of dirty slags, that's all it was".

He is most well-remembered (especially by the residents of psychiatric wards) for his long-running ITV show Beadle's About. After the eponymous host had got over ITV's mis-naming of the show (he had wanted it to be called Beadle's A Boat and to feature him disguised as a minesweeper, ramming pedalos) it settled into a familiar format of pranks played on members of the public. Many of these pranks have entered British folklore including:

Jeremy Beadle was given a very special certificate from the Queen which allowed him to impersonate a police officer (a hanging offence for most) in the service of annoying the public for cheap laughs

• Beadle's having a postman taken away and tortured by the "KGB" (actually prisoners on day-release who were fans of the show) for information that didn't exist (1987)
• The bombing of a house in rural Wiltshire whilst the victim believed their new car was in the garage (it was later revealed by Beadle that, in fact, only their family had been present) (1989)
• The invasion of Kuwait whilst the victim, the Emir of Kuwait, looked on in horror (Beadle admits that the dictator he hired for this prank "took things way too far") (1990)

In one instance, Jeremy set fire to a disabled man's car, house and partner, but forgot to turn the cameras on. The episode was re-shot with a new family.

Although cruel, all of these are okay because the victim laughed in the studio with Beadle afterwards. Albeit forced to with a large sum of money. None of which was given to Beadle's "guests".

In the early 1990s, Beadles enjoyed presenting duties on the frankly worthless ITV home-video show You've Been Fucked before handing over presenting duties to that bird from Emmerdale Farm. It is now presented by living egg Harry Hill. Said Beadle "It's shit now that I'm not on it. You can quote that. I fucking hate everyone involved. Everyone.". The famous "wonky house" set from which he presented the show became Beadle's actual home after he left the series until his death. It has subsequently been destroyed.

Jeremy bowed out of the limelight in 1995 with his last series, Touch My Hand. The show ran for 207 episodes, until a viewer complained that she was disgusted and sickened. This caused Jeremy to have a breakdown, and ultimately, ended his TV career.

[edit] After Television

After coming through a major Heroin and Lucky Charms addiction following the axing of his final series, Jeremy became a recluse. In 2004, he was found huddled under a pile of leaflets in a park in Newcastle. When approached, Jeremy made a hissing sound and ran away on all fours.

In 2002 Jeremy Beadle was scheduled to make an appearance at a nude life drawing session at Holmbush First School, Shoreham-by-Sea, UK. This session was unexpectedly cut short due to the art teacher in charge rather unabashedly inviting the children to 'give Mr Beadle a big hand for his appearance'.

In early 2003, frustrated with his constant losing streak on Butt-Ugly Martians: Zoom or Doom - Jeremy Beadle entered into discussions with Sony to develop his own signature Playstation 2 Controller. In the fall of 2005 the 'Beadlepad ©' was introduced. While sporting a hip new ergonomical design, the controller had limited commercial success and was quickly withdrawn from sale. [[1]]

In 2005, Beadle's autobiography On The Other Hand was published. It was written in short hand.

[edit] Death

His time had come. On the clock on the wall, it was, as predicted - 13:05. The big hand on the 5, the little hand on the one.

At the time of his death, it was rumoured that the BBC were trying to tempt the bearded funnyman away from ITV by offering to commission a pilot of his planned gameshow Dogging for Dollars. 'It was a project close to his heart,' said a family friend, 'combining, as it did, his love of voyeurism, puerile and tacky television, and the ability to get paid large sums of money'.

His cremation was shown live on ITV1 entitled Beadle's About - To Be Cremated. His ashes were then be scattered across Queens Park Rangers football ground, The ground is soon to be renamed "You've Been Flamed".

The Queen had been invited to attend Beadle's cremation but she never turned up and was later quoted saying "Of course I wasn't going to attend that revolting creature's funeral, his hand was an insult to the United Kingdom and thank God it too has been cremated."

[edit] Trivia

• Jeremy stated under oath that his fantasy was to eat his own penis, in front of his extended family, on Christmas morning.

[edit] Wisdom

• On Liver Transplants - "I like them really, because it means I can drink deep into the night without worrying so much."
• On Hitler - "Not bad as a leader, but his facial hair is nothing compared to mine."
• On Deformed Hands - "I'd rather not talk about it."
• On Smoking - "If you give a thousand monkeys a thousand cigarettes, most of the monkeys will smoke. That says a lot about monkeys."
• On Practical Jokes - "They're funnier the crueler they are. Putting a water-filled bucket on top of a door is funny but doing it to someone with AIDS carrying live electrical equipment - now that's good television no matter what the police say!"
