Great idea for a thread Cit

My first though was how one defines 'comedian'. One who makes me laugh, or one who the BBC consider funny. Strange how those who have made their name on the BBC for really being funny have nearly always been initially dismissed by the producers until the public showed them how wrong they were. Almost like they succeeded by accident.

One who definitely does not make me laugh, and is considered humorous by the Beeb is Sandi (the N in Cut) Toksvig. She actually makes me feel sick, and I'm sure her credentials will show her to be EXTREME left-wing.

I am going to expand this thread to name the Whole Program That has Left-wing Comedians and Bias.

definitely got to add Radio 4's "The Now Show" which has a comedy take on topical current affairs, that is a totally Left-wing comedy take on current affairs

I was waiting for the Balance.
