MEET Mr Rude. Bonjour, Mr Rude.
Mr Rude is French. Mr Rude is, as the Sun reports, “impolite, ill-mannered and smelly”.
Mr Rude invites people to pull his finger which acts as a trigger for his breaking wind. Mr Rude has a French accent. Mr Rude has large nose.
A spokesman for the French ambassador says Mr Rude is “unlikely to improve Anglo-French relations”.
Happily, Mr Rude is being broadcast on Channel Five, meaning only a few of us will watch it.
Says a spokesman for the UK’s thirty-fifth channel: “The fact Mr Rude has a French accent is meant to be light-hearted and tongue-in cheek and no offence to the French.”
Had offence been intended, Mr Rude would have been set in occupied France in the 1940s…

I find it quite incredible that Mr Rude could have been based on a Frenchman. After all, for years, indeed centuries the French have been our friends and allies. We have fought together - although not always on the same side. We have occasionally married each others royalty - although sometimes we have been forced to execute them. Indeed we even share part of or language including words like chauffeur, entrepreneur, chef and collaborator. Sacre bleu I can hardly believe I said that. Oh oui, Je can.
