The female panelist is Aimee McDonald and I find her very funny indeed. It has always been a debate if she was acting or not, but playing up the "Oh Darling, he cant say that can he". I remember her at the time as a child and found her very nice to watch as well.

As already said, he did work with many of the women on the panel, but he did not like women except Hattie Jaques and him mum Lou. His diaries show he despised most women and men, that he pretended to be be friends with.

On the broadcast point by the BBC, its just a thought as debate goes on as to why they broadcast in a seemingly random order.

I can't see why they shouldn’t (or wouldn't) broadcast it. His jokes were not *that* gross, and you find jokes on in that same vein on shows like QI today. To be a bit edgy is part of the british humour, in my opinion.

Personally, if I were BBC I'd have more problems airing the episodes with that female panellist who sound like a caricature of a dumb blonde, without being funny at all. She's just... Dumb.
Boy, times have changed since then, and it's not all for the worse. :)

(all in my humble opinion, of course)

Hi perradox77 and all readers,
I agree with you 100% about Kenneth and it was this that made him funny and sad at the same times. But my point seems to have been lost somewhat. I was suggesting that the BBC and other are not going to broadcast these episodes again in today's climate of being PC, just like they would never broadcast the Black and White Minstrels show (they may show the odd still picture). So I think we mayne never hear these again on the BBC.
Thanks Wayne
