I liked the second comment from the top, from “Alcuin”:
If I wanted the opinions of people who think like this, I would go to the Guardian. I do not pay my licence fee to get soft Left metropolitan discourse, and I object to your correspondents spending time that I am coerced into paying for in blogging their opinions.

It’s curious that’s they’re showing it, given that its author, David Baddiel, has said:
“The BBC has become very morally concerned about anything that might offend so it became clear that they weren’t going to [produce the film].”
