Idiot was making a fortune recycling old jokes. Looks like he might be in trouble with the BBC.
Was he recycling the knickers joke from that Madea movie he was in?
Don’t see anywhere in the article that gives clarity as to who the racism was directed towards?
Now, apologise for the show.
Mammy dropped the N bomb.
Fuuuuuuuck and there was me worrying about the peace keepers in Lebanon. Agnes what have you done
He’s no father ted pure shite
So , a man in bad drag who peddles tired old tropes that ” gets a laugh ” on the back of tired camp men silly Billy sons my daughters in law will never be good enough my son and his friend are a running joke and my daughter ( in real life my wife ) is a shouty bland character who can’t get a man appears to have run out of steam.
Hmmmmm
Cannot understand this muck. Gets serious viewers but pure muck.
Probably needs something like this for the last nail.
They’ve basically been rehashing the same shit jokes for over a decade now haven’t they?
Dude has made a ton of money out of dogshit – gotta admire that on some level (but I can’t)
British funded show to laugh at us.
So many miserable begrudging cunts in here. Guess what, not everything is aimed at you, lots of people find it funny.
I’m just amazed it’s still on air. It’s like something from 50 years ago, but I suppose so is the audience.
“Is it bigger than the bread bin?”
“Oh Mammy you’re an awful woman”
Funny how nobody seems to remember the film where he basically played a racist stereotype of an East Asian person and got away with it but he has to apologise for this.
Of course the comments here are filled with transphobia at the sight of such a brave and wonderful woman. Who is this? I just arrived from America
The thing is, when I think of the target audience of this show I think of people that would **love** this “joke”. He’s not sorry per se, he’s sorry he upset *the investors*, not sorry he said it.
I mean, the whole show is basically a clumsy joke.
