I'm just sticking around to see if Ed provides the correct spelling for any of the named performers he cites. Although I suppose it is a form of Googleproofing.

The poll would be futile because it'd be dozens of forgotten options, a big fight, and then a 25-vote landslide victory for Borat once all the Americans turn up.

Andrew Sachs probably does not want publicity or employment any more than your grandfather does.
People who want to privatize the BBC and destroy PSB are bad and sinister.
Ross and Brand are scum who degrade this country's public culture and they should not employed by the BBC.

Plenty of offensive jokes are made in pubs and on messageboards.
But when they are published in mass market circulation newspapers then isn't it the newspapers who should be censured?

yes. that'll be why he's agreeing to do phone interviews with arsehole celebrity DJs, etc.

Ah yes, Ant & Dec with their hilarious "blacked up" "Rich Arabs" "wind-up" "routine." Most fitting for the nation's favourite Chiswick-dwelling Tory-voting professional Geordies!
Sachs I think still relatively busy on the voiceover/audio books front.

"Using make-up sticks we transformed our white reporter Tras Duprez, into a black man to see if the law would treat him any differently. Within five minutes, he'd committed a pocket theft and by mid-afternoon, he was attacking passers-by with violent muggings, and fleecing them viciously on the cobbles."
