[anotheoldgit]

I have heard of satire, but this was a deliberate Lefftie attempt to belittle the next President of the USA.

You are mistaken AOG, you must have missed the episode where Roy Hatterlsey was replaced by a tub of lard.

HIGNFY has spent hours ridiculing Boris when he has hosted the show.

[ummmm]

Oh on HIGNFY the MP (can't remember her name) was replaced with a handbag :-D

[mikey4444]

Ummm .....Woy Hatterley was replaced with of lard, and he was a Labour Peer at the time!

[hc4361]

That was Nicky Morgan, ummmm :D

[ummmm]

It was funny. Paul Merton and a handbag :-D

I know that you constantly side-up with our Mikey, but don't let his rude and offensive remarks wipe off on you, but then again one can't blame Mikey all the time, perhaps he may have caught such thing from you.

No matter how much you dislike certain celebrities, criticise if you must, but please stop the deliberate name calling there is no need for it and it adds nothing to the debate.

[ummmm]

Childish, yet again, AOG

[Islay]

The Lib Dem MP with glasses (looks like he should be a Tory) always gets ripped to shreds the whole show.

Yes AOG believe it or not I have seen BOTH shows and did not see an issue I also watched Rich Hall's program again very entertaining!

As a matter of fact, no I didn't, but the whole show was not about that particular tub of lard or even the politician it portrayed.

[mikey4444]

Actually, I agree with AOG here.

Trump certainly needs no help from me, or anyone else, when it comes to making a fool of himself. After all, he seems to be managing that without outside help and assistance.

Jack Dee did a similar show for Brexit with for and against - was that wrong too?

I admit that I didn't see that particular show, but if it was all aimed at those who voted to leave or all about those who voted to stay, then yes both would have been wrong.

[Islay]

But wrong because you say it is wrong, fortunately the viewing figures are not dependant on your puritan ideals.

Anyone in the public eye, are, and always have been, fair game for comedy shows on TV, such as HIGNFY, Mock The Week, Charlie Brooker, etc even back to Spitting Image, and past presidents such as Bush GW, Bush Snr Clinton and Carter ribbed too, so I think just harmless fun.
Can't be serious all the time.....and whether it's Leftie, Rightie or Upsidedownsy, it's funny.
