    In the best possible taste

    Brilliant introduction to a remembrance of Kenny Everett. "And now, in the best possible taste with offensive attitudes of the time..."
    Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

    Even the BBC don't add that word. I find your opinion offensive.

        The point is that it was the usual "mores of the times", but in the best possible taste. Which is an improvement over the "woke" that triggers you so much, yes?
        Pointing out that you're pushing your own woke agenda is a pleasure, maybe you want to get that unconscious bias looked at.

        Now if you'll excuse me I'm going back to my Jim Davidson videos.

          Anyway, if I had any agenda, I don't know where it is now. I hid it too well.

          The word "offensive" does not imply approval so why insert a word that not even the BBC dare use in that context?

            I was attempting to quote, but couldn't quite recall what was exactly said. It was a paraphrase of a quote, not my own opinion. As I said, what I saw of it, and what I recall, was hilarious. The man was a genius.

            Me woke? I think Graham Lineham is also a genius and what's happened to him is awful.

            I suggest that when you're in a hole - stop digging. You got it wrong. Hoisted by your own prejudices.
            You were "paraphraising"? So which word did the BBC use that made you think "offensive"?

            As for digging? Not me, I've asked you to defend your use of the word "offensive" and you come back with nothing but excuses, and insults.

              So the word "offensive" was inserted by yourself on a whim, not knowing that by using the word you instill a context that wasn't actually meant?

              I'd get that bias checked, it's making you look a chump! Either that or you genuinely are thick.

                  Is your intellect really so low that you have to post rubbish such as that to join a conversation?

                  What next, "I bet you're real fun at parties"?
