BOTS Jimmy Saville joke

[BigBuk]

That joke was terrible, it's wasnt even funny either, he's dead, he was a paedophile so don't think he'd touch up vicky, the joke was just wrong on so many levels. Is he a comedian? If so he's obviously going down the shock value route and failing, the funniest thing about was no one laughed.

[Marcus.]

i was like oh dear

[BigBuk]

It was just so bad...

[DanaC]

I missed it, what did he say? And who was it anyway?

[Ryan57]

He's just a bitchy twat.

[Jack_]

I laughed...Jesus it's BOTS not Question Time what do you expect?

Patrick Strudwick isn't a comedian either, he's a (very good might I add) journalist/columnist

[BigBuk]

I missed it, what did he say? And who was it anyway?

They were talking about Bruce & Vicky sharing a bed and he said "she couldnt look more horrified if she was sharing the bed with Jimmy Saville". It was along those lines, can't mind exactly what he said. I dont know who he was.

[Scotty07]

Just got it on in the background so not taking much notice. If you are talking about the bald guy guest who turns up on there from time to time, I can't stand him anyway so.:idc: Never seen the other one before.:idc:

I know it's not Question time but even for BOTS standards it was bad.
It wasn't funny, it was just in bad taste imo.

Risque, but not all that offensive.

[BigBuk]

I don't think it's offensive, others might but all I'm saying there was no need to bring a paedophiles name up just to be funny... which it wasn't.

[reece(:]

Jimmy Saville banter is so last year.:idc:

[chuff me dizzy]

I find paedophilia a lot worst taste,. this vile pig of a "man" was covered up for too long ,a lot of innocent lives was ruined, just because he was a pervert ,may he rot in hell

[Vanessa]

I thought it was in very bad taste to be honest.

[chuff me dizzy]

Poor Jimmy :idc:

[flamingGalah!]

Patrick Strudwick is an annoying twat :idc:

[Shaun]

because Question Time is the only programme where you're supposed to show respect

You've got it all wrong Im not defending Jimmy Saville, I'm saying for him to use a paedophiles name to get a few laughs is wrong, I hope he rots in hell too.

Anybody that watches Bit On The Side should know what to expect...crass jokes, innuendo...it's hardly the pinnacle of intellectually stimulating TV

And I really don't think using Jimmy Saville as an example in what was an off-the-cuff joke means he 'lacks respect' either. And having read and followed Patrick's work that's the last thing he could be described as

[DanaC]

God, BigBuks why d'ye have to love pedophiles so much? Huh?




:-p

[LukeB]

Be quite stop being a grumpy old fart it was hilarious

[user104658]

It was offensive. But not because of the controversy. Just because Jimmy Saville jokes are old... and even if they weren't... it was a really bad Jimmy Saville joke and out of context.

If it had been Courtney in the bed it might have been funny. ish. A year ago.

I could watch your sig for hours :laugh:

And he's a fool.

Okay, you continue to judge him on a few BOTS appearances knowing nothing about anything else he does :)

I've read his tweets, I've heard him on radio 5live...I suspect I know more about him than you...the guy is a reactionary cock.

[flamingGalah!]

I have read his columns in the Gay Times & Attitude & think he's a twat.

He is even worse on TV & tries too hard to be outrageous & controversial :idc:

REACTIONARY?! :joker: he's the very opposite, in fact that's exactly the kind of attitudes he opposes wtf

[Videostar]

He called that ITV comedy Vicious "homophobic" after only one episode, im sorry but that was stupid and reactionary...he is one of these so called "righteous" people who labels anyone who disagrees with his views on anything as an "phobic" of some kind or another...can't stand bozo's like him.

[Colbert-Bump]

Patrick Strudwick comes across as such a creep, I've seen Serial Killers with more warmth.

Feels like he tries too hard to be controversial all the time and seems more interested in getting a reaction than being actually funny.

It's made worse by the fact that when he says something 'outrageous', he has that self-satisfied look on his face, a bit like a toddler who has just pooed himself and thinks "I know it's wrong but i did it anyway, look how naughty i am!"

[CaudleHalbard]

I think he feels intellectually superior.
