World renowned physicist Stephen Hawking was a “big t*ts guy” according to his friend, comedian Jimmy Carr.
Carr, who got to know Hawking while he studied at Cambridge University, said: “You might know him best as a physicist but he was a bloke,” after admitting they often talked about women’s boobs.

“I like Stephen Hawking, I became friends with him later on. We used to go out a lot and it was fun,” he said in a recent show Q&A which he posted on his YouTube channel this week.
“If you want to know what I talked to Stephen about, we were friends. He was a big t*ts guy.
“He used to like it when I had a party at my house. If a lady with enormous t*ts came to say hello to him, because he was in a wheelchair and they would have to bend down, he would get a face full of t*tties and you might know him best as a physicist but he was a bloke.”

Carr, who studied social science and political science at Gonville and Caius College, was answering a question from the audience about his favourite memory from university.
He said: “It’s hard to think of one that’s repeatable, it was a different era... it will probably be Stephen Hawking related - what? I was at college with Stephen Hawking.”
He added: “I took him to see The Book of Mormon.. and we met the cast afterwards. Stephen, he’s got one cheek muscle that works so he couldn’t say anything to the cast, so I went, ‘he’s actually very religious.’
“Stephen was going, what the f***. I said yes he’s found God.”
Hawking, who was described as the greatest scientific brain since Albert Einstein passed away on March 14, 2018. He was considered a medical marvel, having lived for more than half a century with motor neurone disease.
