Little Britain has been pulled off Netflix apparently. We really do deal in hollow gestures now don't we? Bang pans for paramedics and stop watching little Britain, a tremendous year's work for any freedom fighter.

Taken off i-player as well. Me and my missus must be racist, we went to see Little Britain at the Empire years ago.

I was watching John Oliver last night and I said to Mrs Turdseye that it’s amazing how nobody has shot him yet in a country with so many guns in it. 
 

Carlson I mean, not Oliver. Our John was fighting back the tears towards the end of his show this week. 

John Oliver was absolutely superb this week.  Literally everyone should watch it.

Fucking stupid decision.  You'd be hard-pushed to make an argument that it's a racist show. If you want to go down that line, for consistency's sake you'd have to crank up your Offence-o-matic for its depiction of gay people, disabled people, transvestites, the working class, obese people and Denis Waterman.

Responding to a call about a trespasser, officer Frank Hernandez, 49, hit a man on the head, neck and body more than a dozen times while screaming expletives. A bystander caught the incident on camera.

 

Hernandez?? 

 

 

Could be of French/Spanish background. See World Cup winning left back.

Deffo going to be Williamson and his pet tarantula.

 

As for Bo Selecta and Little Britain, did anyone actually complain about them or did they both just get cold feet and do it themselves, because I don’t think I’ve ever actually seen anyone complain.

Keith Lemon publicly apologised for including black characters and said he wouldn't do it now. I'm not sure anyone actually complained, I think the most significant complaint was from Craig David who said he didn't want people singing his name whenever he's mentioned.

 

I don't think there has been anything at all publicly about Little Britain, that looks like a BBC decision. It looks a little bit like 'ITV have done this pulling a series, we have to pull a show so we can do something too'.
