Will assume this has some relevance to stuff that Katherine Ryan mentioned on Louis Theroux's programme..

Very much so..

there are some right creeps that are hiding in plain sight that are being protected by folks wanting to climb the ladder and not risk their own careers by calling stuff out.

Comedy I’m this country will be much better off with a big purge!

Apparently not been confirmed what it's actually about so far..

If it's about comedians Newy definitely won't be featuring.

Brilliant. Let's get rid of all the people who made us laugh. Shall we start with Vic and Bob, the league of gentlemen, skinner and baddiel and the mighty boosh for blackface?

Timed to coincide with a splash in the Sunday papers I’m led to believe

Rumour going round that’s it’s about the me too movement

Sexist and racist comedians from 80s, well colour me shocked. Next week on Dispatches we uncover a PPE scandal that will blow your mind

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Hmm this or the Football League Show

Interesting to see a reply from Fern Brady to someone asking if she knows who will be outed

I don’t think it’s that like.. it’s already been addressed.. well not in the case of Little Britain.. but in other comedies

That link says 'men and women' - so maybe a few surprises in the programme....

 

[FabioPorkpie]

Please let Russel Brand and David Walliams be among those exposed

 

[Pak_Doo_Ik]

Please, please, please let the creator of Mrs Browns Boys be outed as not funny!!!!

I've a sneaking suspicion this will be a damp squib. They'll "expose" a couple of people we already know about, and then the rest will be the shocking revelation that professional entertainers use cocaine.

 

[Sheriff_John_Bunnell_ret]

It's just so depressing to see people rubbing their hands with glee.

Have to say I thought the same, but then thought how wrong it is for people in power to abuse that privilege, hence the whole schadenfreud thing.

If people have used their position and influence to abuse or break the law then they need calling out and prosecuting.

After all the common person would not be in a position to hide it.
