Video: Irish reporter’s questions really pissed off Russell Brand on Channel 4 news

Anyone got a knife to cut the tension in the air.

Anyone got a knife to cut the tension in the air.

Russell Brand is a guy who seems unflappable in any situation but an Irish reporter with Channel 4 News really got under his skin yesterday.

Brand joined residents of New Era Estate, who are protesting against the possibility of their rent going up, when he bumped into Paraic O’Brien.

The reason rents in the area are going is because wealthy individuals are taking over the market.

Old Russ has a few bob in his account so the reporter asked him how much he had paid for his new home. Bad move.

Was Russell Brand right to get annoyed? Was the line of questioning irrelevant? Let us know what you think.
