Luvvie Moran, 41, begged her Twitter followers to donate £320,000 to a crowd­-funding page to make a third series of Raised By Wolves.

Has TV given up on working-class comedy?

So she's right basically, Caitlin Moran is right. So are the 3,000 people that have backed a third series of Raised By Wolves after it was axed from Channel 4. They haven't backed it because it's a perfect show, but because that's what a lot of people want.

We've made progress sure but it's still progress and we've still got a long way to go.
