Ok, but what about the people who go to these comedians shows, and they end up complaining about something they've said or done.
Frankie Boyle or Jimmy Carr for example, surely its blatantly obvious isnt it what their style of comedy is, so why do people still go and see them in the first place, if they're 'easily offendable' ?.

Was anyone at Japanese whispers the night he walked off because he couldn't handle the heckling??
Aar used to luv him missen. Allus med mi laugh.
The PC lot get confused. The go to these Islington Comedy Clubs to watch these right on "cutting edge" comedians who are worshipped fo swearing and telling the same kind of jooaks. Even Saint Julie Walters took the p1ss arta elderly waitresses wi Mrs Overall.
We all ev different tastes and senses of humour.
The difference SB is that Julie Walters was using a characature of a fictitious person where Roma's example was Manning taking the pyss out of someone actually there He had the microphone & used it like the ignorant bully that he was How would it sit with you had the woman been your mum or missus?
It would have been great if the woman's son was in the audience & just feckin decked him. See if he thought that was funny I would have thought it was hillarious

I blame Ardsley House/BFC fo booking him. They and the audience knew exactly worri wo like and I bet the place wo rocking. Ardsley House edda duty of care (am sarnding like the much missed Kerr here ) to the elderly waitress and shudda warned her to expect sum strong p1ss taking and given her the chance to work behind the scenes if she wanted. It was part of Manning's act to tek the p1ss arta people walking past the stage.
It's like going to a Frankie Boyle do nardays and expecting Bible readings.

I think we live in an age where people are P.C. However, it really offends me when someone who isn't even an acquaintance but knows me feels the urge to point out, "bye you've put some timber on". I want to turn round and say,"who the hell do you think you are".
There aren't any do gooders putting an arm round me. I've got to get on with it. Man up, so to speak.
The same goes for Bernard Manning jokes. If you like that sought of thing buy a ticket. If you don't, don't. It does exactly what it says on the tin.
