Rob Beckett almost got into fight with drunk fan after being filmed in toilet

Comedian recalled getting into a physical altercation with a drunk fan after he was filmed using the toilet. At one of his gigs, which he said was at a small nightclub-like venue, he went to use the toilets when a 'geezer' drunkenly approached him for a picture.

The Last One Laughing star said: "There's this drunk geezer probably 45-50 years old quite a bit bigger than me but looked muscly but not massively muscly and probably a couple of inches taller than me. He comes up to me and comes up to me with a big finger point. I'm walking to the front door of the toilet and it felt like a year nine interaction with the school bully from the year above."

Speaking to on their podcast, he said he tensed his stomach in preparation for the aggressive belly poke from the fan.

He added: "I think he's recognised me and this is what happens with basic men from working-class backgrounds that are used to school alpha male situations and they still may be in a workplace that's very alpha male with a slight tint of toxic masculinity.

"They still try to bully you like it's school. So I tense my stomach and when he does it, his finger crumples in a bit and you see his face; he's a bit annoyed. He went, 'Oi, I know you' and I went 'Alright mate'. He went quite aggressive with the face and said 'You owe me a fiver'."

Rob said he was defusing the situation by being friendly to him but the 'bloke was trying to mug him off'. The person then asked for a photo as he was walking into the toilet so Rob answered: "One minute, mate. I'm just going to the toilet. I'll do it for you in a second."

The person, not taking no for an answer, replied: "We'll do one now," before Rob insisted on using the toilet first and closing the cubicle door. He then recalled: "My d**k's out now, trying to have a wee in the cubicle. And he's like, 'Come on, mate, why are you being a pr*ck?' I'm trying to p*ss, I'm trying to go to the toilet. Give me a second and I will."

According to Rob, the person yelled out: "You're not gonna get anything out of that," confusing the comedian before he looked around and realised the drunk fan was filming the back of him while holding the cubicle door ajar.

The Celebs Go Dating narrator said he felt 'very cornered like a dog' and was 'so angry' by the fan's rude behaviour, admitting he wanted to punch him.

He ended up taking deep breathes to calm himself down as he "wanted to have a fight" with the rude fan but knew it was a "terrible decision". He said: "I don't really fight but I'm at my wits end here."

When Rob eventually got out the toilet, the drunk fan pushed Rob and accused him of 'being a pr**k'. Rob had to grab his arm and tell him to "get off me" before telling the person off for his "totally unacceptable" behaviour.

As he was trying to leave the toilet, he felt the person's arm on his shoulder and Rob turned around to push him off before rushing out the door and 'ran through the gig' to find somewhere to hide.

Thankfully, he never bumped into the fan again but Rob admitted he would have punched the person if he was hit first, telling Josh that he wouldn't have fought him in the toilet as they were the only ones there by the time it got aggressive.
