I’m glad to finally see which scene in particular has been getting everyone’s knickers in a twist. I actually thought Nan’s scene with Charlotte Church scene was a bit darker that the mother-is-like-the-daughter bit. Nevertheless, I like Tate’s stuff and have no problem with it - in fact, I’m glad it’s here, in this post-911 world of heightened sensitivies and hidden agendas.

Catherine Tate has lost it for the moment. She was so good to begin with. Hope she gets back on track.

What I didn’t like was her use of an Asian man as a punchline. He walked in the room and the audience laughed like something out of the 1970s, then she said ‘there’s an Asian in my living-room’ and I switched over. Naff. Lazy. Old-fashioned. Boring. I’d rather watch Bernard Manning (I really would, at least he was funny, in a nasty way).

Fuck-a-duck.

I once interviewed a rugby team and spent the beet part of night singing songs about “finger f*ck a duck”, “lick out a trout”, “gang bang an orangutan” etc. each verse ending with the honoured and hideously drunken “fuck a wallaby”
