I only use that example because there's a 28 year old bloke in my local who thinks Benny Hill was s e x ist but finds Micky Flanagan hilarious.
I can give you his phone number if you want to cross examine him.
Mellow, I have to concur with the 28 year old bloke, I think Micky Flannigan provides great viewing. His shows portray a totally different angle from that of your average stand up comedian. He tells a story of life and how he grew up, not just one liners.

He casts your mind back to how it was then, followed up by up to date modern challenges to the audience. One main thing I like about the man, is that he says when he's run out fresh material that's him done. He doesn't believe in 'doing the circuit' feeding his paying customers repeat drivel like some other famous comics and we know who they are.

He uses expletives but in a subtle way not as direct nasty swear words and I for one don't find this offensive, as it's all part of his storytelling act.
