Whenever this is the subject of conversation I'm always reminded of some retrospective 70s comedy show I saw on tv once 

They were on about how you could get away with a lot more close to the bone racism back then 

One of the people being interviewed was the writer of one such show, who said 

"Well I'm not offended by the word paki, but then again, I'm not a paki"

Well yes. The people using the word Gammon are usually the ones offended by…. Well anything. 
I’m with Ricky Gervais and Roy Chubby Brown and Bernard Manning etc. etc. etc.

Eh? You wrote just a bit ago, "Another who works on the BBC apologising for anti Israel tweets. They’ve got form them lot."

 

And you said “they have fuck all to do with it” Which they don’t. I’m just stating another high profile person that works within the organisation has had to come Out and apologise.

Jesus. I'd just literally googled it. Maybe you have to be plugged in to all the right wing outrage pages for this kind of thing to enter your sphere of consciousness? 

Now I understand the reference - I'm even more entrenched in my position that it's utter shite! 😁

Like I said. It's not the subject matter - or the dark material. It's just objectively unamusing. 

That’s ok. We don’t all have the same sense of humour. 👍

She doesn't work within the organisation. She is not paid by the BBC so you are wrong.

The Vicar of Dibley was produced by Tiger Aspect and basically sold to whatever TV channel decided to take it up, like most programmes these days.

It's utter unfunny shite. How he can call himself a comedian is beyond me.

See Michael McIntyre and he got some prime time gigs 

Most comedians I've seen make me laugh at least once 

Not him though

Well Let’s just say she stars in many programmes that are aired by the BBC.

I’ve not seen many people who star in ITV shows having to apologise. Must just be a coincidence hey.

I'm not sure Dawn French's personal opinions count as 'current events' 😉

[royal white]

The “thickos” are having to do a lot of explaining tonight.

She tried to be funny to the ‘left wing’ types. She got called out and has been ridiculed and has had to apologise. It’s all over social media. Unfortunately, in this day and age, that’s ’current events’

I mustn't be a 'left wing type' then. It's completely passed me by. I feel personally attacked as one of our resident yoghurt knitters 😁

She starred in some programmes that was shown on the BBC many years ago. Her most recent ones were shown in ITV and Sky.

So what has the BBC got to do with Dawn French again?

Brilliant. Not even released yet. Good bit of googling.

One day you might just hold your hand up and say, "I was wrong".

But being filmed……after she had made the tweet. Like I said, just a coincidence hey. 
 

Oh and she’s been on plenty of other BBC shows in more recent years. Sometimes it’s better off to google, and it’s free 👍
