Did she look anything like Little Miss Jocelyn, then?

her attitude was very similar, but she was not amused when I got her
to watch that show. "What do you think I am, an A to Z?" was one
of my favourite lines.

A shame they took it off the air. Many clips are still available on
youtube, though.

It was incredibly offensive (to blacks, I thought) and some episodes
scarcely had a laugh, others were very good.


Why should a white person feel uncomfortable or even offended by a
black person making jokes about black people?

You can take political correctness too far.

This, surely is one of the "joys" of the ardent Guardiansti hard core
Socialist. You are there to "feel the pain" of the "less fortunate", but
only if they belong to a "minority group".

If you're white, straight and pay lots of tax you can go f*ck yourself
as you deserve no compassion whatsoever, regardless of what calamity may
fall on your head. Indeed, you probably deserve it.


Little Miss Jocelyn was both intelligent and hilarious - in my
opinion, one of the funniest comedy programmes of recent years!

However, the novelty wore off. The first series was nominated for a
BAFTA but the second series didn't attract such a big audience despite
being moved from BBC3 to BBC2. It got some poor reviews. Perhaps
there was too much carried over from the first series and not enough
new material.

Thank you. My only regret is that I omitted the word "champagne" between
"hard core" and "Socialist" from my description of the "feeler of pain".
