Who is Ronnie Pickering? It’s the question that has echoed across social media this week after a motorcyclist’s video of a road rage incident went viral. The angry driver the rider encounters pulls over and, after a stream of swearing, says: “Do you know who I am? I’m Ronnie Pickering”. He then repeats this over and over again, spawning a whole host of spoofs, including Batman really is Ronnie Pickering! and Trainpotting’s Begbie is Ronnie Pickering, which didn’t make our list and Who Do You Think You Are? (Feat Ronnie Pickering) a Christina Perri spoof and Who Are You, which did.
James Corden doesn’t have an identity crisis, but he has undergone a huge change of image since his early days as a TV actor in the UK to his role now as host of CBS’s Late, Late Show. By way of contrast, enjoy Corden’s take on Riverdance, in which he displays some nimble footwork (albeit shadowly lit), with his portrayal of Jamie Rymer in ITV’s Fat Friends. Jamie Rymer, which won him a nomination for network newcomer on screen at the 2000 RTS awards.
Corden might not be putting a foot wrong, but the makers of Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 5 have landed in hot water with their latest game. A big patch, released as the game launched in the US this week, failed to halt streams of complaints from gamers and, as our video shows, it’s still a glitchy mess.
