Rufus Hound has branded Digital Spy forum users who persistently complain about his shows as "f**king moron[s]".
The comedian, who previously described the DS forums as a place of "vitriol, hate and anger", said he is unable to tolerate people who can't understand the challenge of producing a TV show, which he likened to "climbing Kilimanjaro blindfold[ed] with your legs tied together".
He told Digital Spy: "All of the people that post [on the forums] have never tried to make a television programme... everybody's entitled to an opinion, but I'm entitled to think your opinion is worth f**kall.
"Digital Spy forums for whatever reason just seem to be particularly populated with people who espouse great wisdom and yet I think must have fallen over while they were picking their nose."
Turning directly to our camera, he continued: "If you're a Digital Spy forum poster and you've ever posted something along the lines of, 'Maybe we should take it reasonably', or 'In context maybe it's worth considering', then my quarrel isn't with you.
"If you've ever made a definitive statement on a show that you have no idea about, you're a f**king moron. "
However, Hound - who was speaking at the We Will Rock You 10th anniversary show last month - admitted that he has not been on Digital Spy's forums recently and revealed that he used to be similarly critical of TV before finding fame.
Hound also confirmed to DS at the event that he has left Celebrity Juice.
