David Jason's "racist" joke...

[AlexKP]

Apparently absolutely no complaints have been received at all, yet this is still somehow newsworthy?

And is it really an offensive joke?

[fido]

No, but it's a cr8p unfunny joke.

[Invisible man]

FFS!! and WTF is an 'Absolute Spokesperson'?

[him_over_there]

That's not racist.

To me, racism implies malice or judging someone based on their race. This was plainly neither!

No complaints received, however now they will be swamped with an avalanche of complaints from people that just like to whinge, and never caught the original broadcast.

[DamoLLb]

Nobody has taken offence. So why the apology?

[sleep envy]

he deserves censure, not because it's racist but because it's a ste joke

[Sheets Tabuer]

I didn't hear the comment and indeed I read it was never broadcast but I'd like to register my disgust at this tasteless and insensitive racist joke.

It's a play on words, on someone's name.

Goodness, gracious, me.

Well, I'm glad the BBC thought this was more newsworthy than the savaging Winky got the other day.

Tossers.
