These gammons are always getting offended these days and complaining. So sensitive nowadays. Ready to take offence at anything.

When I was a kid male private Emery, Danny la Rue, the Two Ronnies, Les Dawson and Roy Kinnear, half the cast of It Ain’t Alf Hot Mum, and ditto the cast of Colditz were in drag on prime time TV every week. It’s called entertainment fellas.

What are they worried about? Do they fear that they have latent homosexual desires and the sight of Gauka Marques in tights is going to make them want to go out and have filthy sex with the nearest policeman?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

As an 80s child, Saturday Night TV could only have been camper if Larry Grayson and Iván Campo had erected a tent in the Camp Nou and Campo had whispered, ”Si Señor, I will help peg your guy rope”.

Yet there has still been enough procreation in this country to have increased the UK fertility rate since the 80s, so it can’t have done any harm.

Mind you, the Brexiteers / Millwall fans will attribute the increasing fertility rate to foreign born migrants. To be fair, dear old Larry did warn you to “Shut that door!”.

Not forgetting Liberace and John Inman. It was certainly ok to be overtly gay in " the good old days" (Not the show The Good Old Days which was also camp as Christmas), but a man in a dress, that's just wrong. Lily Savage has gone straight and now fiddles with dogs.

Mind you, it was mostly from the era when the Black and White Minstrel Show, Alf Garnett and Love Thy Neighbour ruled the airwaves. All good clean fun, but a man in a dress and dancing is just beyond the pale.

Larry Grayson and the rest of his generation of entertainers were camp as hell and funny with it without the modern day need to ram it down your throat and say "I'm gay, deal with it" which seems the want these days.
Those entertainers came through shining in an era where there was actually a very hostile atmosphere directed at them and they had to work bloody hard to win over a huge percentage of their audience.
People can bang on that the country hasn't moved on about race and sexuality issuses but anyone around in the the 60's or 70's will tell you it damn well has.

They were all moaning about the Vicar of Dibley coming back at Christmas with a BLM sermon the other day.

“I will never watch it again!” say the people who probably didn’t watch it in the first place.

That happened years ago. Do keep up.

Complaining is the only spectator sport allowed during lockdowns.

I used to think Billy Dainty was a great Panto Dame. Just cannot remember where I put the wig.

I forgot Panto dames. Another great British tradition.

Did you mean to say that?  

I don't mind homosexuals being on the telly but I'm not having it rammed down my throat.
