I think that is the most important thing out of all this. It raised awareness of Robbo's situation, which even most on here seemed to not know about.

TV show - Graffiti Wars, by Finsbury on Aug 15, 2011 9:53:26 GMT 1, Great programme until the end. I thought the dissing tennis between the two was funny even though it was started by Banksy by breaking the unwritten code in the first place. Get well soon Robbo (i found out he's a gooner by a mate last night too so even more best wishes to one of ours..)
I am a novice in this scene so i'd like to ask people in the know re the programme and street art...do most people think Banksy imitated Blek and if so why he his work not slated as is the likes of MBW? A cheat is a cheat no?

Isn't it blatantly obvious that Banksy imitated Blek! But Banksy has moved on and I haven't seen a Rat(1 recently) or Soldier in years. MBW has continued to rip off to this day..
I havent seen the Graff wars yet it's on the hard drive to watch this eve.

You can then say Blek ripped off the graffiti writers/artist of new york - it all sounds like a case of sour grapes to me. One artist has moved on leaps and bounds, while the other has remained still.

Surely Pure Evil would know if they were Banksy's people at the show or not? Anyone else notice a quote pulled from the forum about the show?

TV show - Graffiti Wars, by aj2010 on Aug 15, 2011 10:57:46 GMT 1, Yes, all very one sided. Only once did they show what Robbo's piece looked like before Banksy went over it, and they got that picture from Banksy. Every other time they looked like they were trying to make it look new'ish. And as far as Team Robbo going over the Banksy's, that was just immature, school boy rubbish. Total lack of immagination and humour.
That said, when they weren't going on about the tit for tat fight, I did enjoy finding out more about Robbo.

Not that obvious then.

TV show - Graffiti Wars, by simonf on Aug 15, 2011 13:45:26 GMT 1, It was pretty entertaining, but clearly Robbo is a man with an ego. He certainly seems proud of the fact he assaults people. The fact he makes such a big thing of assaulting Banksy.. or anyone else for that matter shows what a bully he was. And he seemed quite proud of it. If he hadn't the punched the smaller guy with glasses none of it would have happened.
Having said that what a tremendously sad ending to the programme. When he says "come back in a few days and i'll show you what I'll do" Then they say he is in a coma. That is jus so shocking, and terribly sad. I hope he makes it.

I think you have raised a very good point. Throughout the show, Robbo proudly recalls the 'slap' he apparently gave Banksy. It was the first thing he said to the 'stranger' who asked whether he was Banksy or not.
You hit the nail on the head with 'Bully'.

I honestly think he was bitter over Banksy's success, seemed to keep saying oh i could do that, or i might do that etc , to me it seemed a bit desperate,
Of course all very sad news on his health , hopefully he can come back to the Banksy piece in the tunnel at some point.

Thanks for the link. I missed it sunday. A fascinating programme, a lot better than the antics roadshow. I had no idea there was so much going on. Cheers isoaflip. Get well soon Robbo.

TV show - Graffiti Wars, by Deleted on Aug 16, 2011 0:52:54 GMT 1, got to love this place, I'm no Robbo apologist nor blinkered Banksy fan, a few of you should watch that show again and read between the lines a little more. Robbo's hardly a bully for giving some mouthy lad a slap - maybe some of you just haven't been drinking in the east end? Seeing as PE's known to Banksy and Pow's not that far away it doesn't take a great leap in logic to assume word on the show and what was in it would have got to Banksy, although as stated above that wasn't Jo. Also Banksy did comment in the show a couple of times, he should have thought about what he said more though, rather than do some more throwaway lines - it does him no favours. Maybe it's time to be the bigger man while Robbo's in hospital?

RELAX - they didn't hurt each other - just some bantering, is all - so let's eliminate the venom - let's not contribute to making things much more serious than it is...
i do love the passion on here - we need loads of help with space exploration and such - and some of you bad arses would do just fine...
