I just Rosie Jones on something talking about taking a first date to a posh restaurant and then seeing Greg, Alex, and Tim Key at a table, and her being torn about wanting to give her attention to her date but also really wanting to be on Taskmaster. I'm glad at least one worked out.

Maybe you know something I don’t, but I’m not aware of horrendous comments towards large demographics from Davies

horrendous comments towards large demographics from Davies

When did Tosh do that?

And why wasn't that in your first comment about why you wouldn't want him?

If that's what you're calling his response to one specific person who was heckling him...

Greg has said much more wide sweeping things directed at demographics just on Taskmaster.

Those were jokes, just like I'm sure Tosh wasn't legitimately saying it would be funny if a woman in his audience was actually being raped.

I do understand why you don't like Jimmy Carr now, just not sure why you like any British comedy

I was asking what Davis said on that level. Saying a woman should be raped is a statement towards a large demographic.

Davis is also an actor, and is playing a roll. He makes awful statements on Alex Horne’s behalf, but we know it’s in jest.

I was raised on British comedy - satire in particular. Tosh’s retort wasn’t satire. I don’t know why you’re being such a simp for a guy who went out of fashion ages ago.
