Is this in any way based on an old gag? It seems familiar.

I thought it was kinda funny too.

Sounds like I am in the minority but I genuinly laughed, the pure shock element slapped me right in the face.

Ps have you got ginger hair, glasses, previously worked on a bbc panel show and now have your own show on channel 4?

Wife Beating lessons on the NHS?

Hair-trigger temper men across Britain awoke to the news that they may soon be able to hone their partner bruising skills for free, via a new Government incentive scheme. Police chiefs had recently reported the amount of officer hours wasted on domestics that were little more than 'slanging matches' was rising, keeping officers from attending real crimes like people spitting in public, or kids shouting on buses.

"The NHS has recently come into possession of hundreds of empty baby units in hospitals across the country, providing a perfect training scenario for dad to give mum a good whack in the eye over the little 'uns cot. We will be concentrating on facial bruising impact maximisation, developing language skills for more colourful spouse abuse, and advising women on plausible excuses for having a face like a drop-kicked watermelon. Also, we will be selling a competitively priced 'winter sunshades' collection for perfecting that just-had-my-eye-socket-destroyed look for those mouthy missys", commented Esther Rantzen, the initiative co-ordinator.

Sooty's definitely used that punch line before! The punch line's good, but been used before, by Sooty.

And I agree that you should never self censor, always leave that to someone else.

Bob, I have seen lot's of this behaviour on 'Cops n Camera'.

Think humour would improve if the women had drank 'Cidra' or a made up kind of

'Stella', like 'Man Beater'... a massive fight to follow! guys could fall asleep in the cots! bit more realistic stuff.
