Quote: Park Bench @ May 2 2011, 10:40 AM BSTI like Amanda too, but without going too far off topic, a woman, who could use a bit of toning, doing the splits, is not going to win. But then, what do I know.
Is Fern Briton on it then?
My first stab at writing material Page 2
Cheers.
I hear Fern has done a deal with the major utility companies. In an effort to level out power usage, when people get in from work, at teatime, and put the kettle on, the balance is restored by turning the TV off.

She's lovely, slim or otherwise so for me that one doesn't work!
Replace 'Fern' with 'Eggheads'
Actually PB I think the Belle has a point, by targeting people you run the risk of alienating some of your audience. Not sure what the current thinking on this issue is. SootyJ will be along to update I fancy. I guess current affairs type comedy it is the norm.
Good Point. I don't usually mention individuals at all, but BGT has been ruined. Oh wait, I did have a joke about 'Loose Women', guess I'd better can that. Most of the stuff I write tends to be self derision or observational comedy.

Up yours!
Basic rules are as follows
1 Some people will laugh more if you target specific people.
2 Some people will laugh less if you target specific people.
The more you push this the more rules become true. So Roy Chubby isn't on telly becuase jokes about rape, fannys and p***s are out.
He's the riches comedian in the UK because millions of others will see him make those jokes live or on DVD.
There you go

Is he? Weird... He's a bit like Frankie Boyle, but without the talent or intelligence... I suppose he's been going for a while, but still, he can't be one of the top earners?
He's a big earner
