As a disabled person, I don’t feel uncomfortable about watching it at all. People really need to stop getting uncomfortable/offended on behalf of disabled people. It’s insulting. https://twitter.com/FloydGeller/status/1525571192287019013

Such a pleasure to catch up with Jack at one of my recent tour shows. You may remember I helped him find his own regional accent on The One Show. And it’s sounding great! #cerebrallolsy
Totally awesome, keep up the good work, we are proud. We all are strong.
Ye my brother did it before the lost voice guy if i’m totally honest a good few years ago through national star college. He had a BBC program called the Unbreakables which showed how amazing National Star College is but BGT still gets more publicity.
Your humour is great. As a disabled person myself it's important that we can see humour in the world around us too. Humour unique to us.
Love this 💕 Cant wait to come and see you on tour next month 👍🙂
You’re awesome mr lost voice guy! Respect to you 👍
Aw fab, I need you to find my son a Welsh voice! X
Looking forward to seeing you in Dorking x
Looking Great Boys!!
Hi, may I ask when you first started using AAC did you find it difficult and feel like your identity had gone? I'm a disabled person and I'm having issues. I can't speak clearly and have been given an AAC device and finding it difficult to use. Is that normal? Many thanks and keep up the good work.
Absolutely awesome!!
You two look like trouble!
I saw that it's a great idea, you two are double trouble lol
Love your shirt!
Can't wait to see you in Cambridge tomorrow
Love that t-shirt! 😂
How about a Dalek accent?
Fantastic!
What’s on your yellow shirt?
See you soon in shoreham 👏
Really?

Ready for my appearance on Morning Live on BBC One at 9.15am. Tune in to hear my new Geordie accent and to hear about my Cerebral LOLsy tour!
Thanks everyone!
It was the greatest of honours to provide your voice Lee! Looking forward to seeing it in your show in Newcastle!
What a wonderful voice you have now. You must feel like yourself more than ever and what a truly wonderful selfless gift ❤🥰❤
Seen you on TV this morning great interview and was nice to hear your new voice x
Good morning. Wishing you the very best of luck with your tour. We will watch, thanks for letting me know. Great jumper!! Take care and stay safe ❤️
Love this picture of you Lee. Bless you and keep up the great performances, hun. 🤗 xx
Love that you keep on doing your thing! And what an advantage you have-- we may tire of hearing some voices, even pretty good ones, or even our own... You get endless upgrades. Stallone one day, Jeremy Irons the next... Idk though, I'd probably be pretty set on a good Morgan Freeman, and use his voice of God to do some of the more lengthy and ridiculously offensive riffs I heard Bob Saget do at a small club in San Francisco a couple of times. RIP Bob. And LVG, keep em howlin'! I'll check a clip any time you drop one, man! Aloha and Cheerios or whatever y'all say on that island... 🤙
You were brilliant XXX love the Gordie voice xx
Hope it went well for u,you're a great guy/comedian.x👏
Loved the interview Lee. Voice is well suited to you so well done Dan too. #buckworthy
Good luck! Looking forward to seeing you in May.
