From what I remember from things she's said, she had a real problem with people making jokes or comedies out of punching down at minorities or people who are different.I didn't see it happen, but how do you give someone a sarcastic standing ovation? Surely unless everyone is looking right at your face, it just looks like a standing ovation? And the thing about those is that once one person has done it, other people join in. So, did she give Ricky G a standing ovation to... protest him getting a standing ovation?
fair enough but if i had the time would prompt a deep dive into her. i didnt know she did standup and if what she's mostly known for acting others words, its easy for her to feel in a position to judge others. I am not defending Gervais or his humour and tbh idohave issues with a lot of what he takes a dig at but he's not even funny when he does it imo so maybe i'm not the best to comment as an expert hereFrom what I remember from things she's said, she had a real problem with people making jokes or comedies out of punching down at minorities or people who are different.
For example: trans, gay, obese, disabled, women in certain circumstances, those deemed to not be attractive by others etc. Case in point in this case: Afterlife, The Office, Derek, jokes from his stand up shows etc.
She always had plenty of male admirers in KUA.My Grandad used to have a liking for Ms Routledge, he used to say she was a “handsome” woman every time she was on TV.
Granny was not amused, although she did have more than a whiff of Hyacinth about her.
Not Emmett though, sadlyShe always had plenty of male admirers in KUA.
I mean... she's not wrong.From what I remember from things she's said, she had a real problem with people making jokes or comedies out of punching down at minorities or people who are different.

Not just when it comes to writing, the Lemonade video was lifted from someone with the bare minimum changed but she got the credit. It's at the point that there are online articles from people about how much she 'borrows' but gets called original and a trendsetter.She's very much a 'change a word, get a third' singer.
Um yeah? She's been in loads, including Ghosts which is fantastic and doesn't punch down like that sweetcorn-toothed looking cunt Gervais.Heard of the "comedian" Lolly Adefope anyone? No didn't think so.. i am not the biggest fan of Ricky Gevais and his comedy but i swear sometimes these ppl only do that kind of thing to get their name out there for some cheap publicity. Only time we hear those names from those who haven't made a name for them by doing comedy - ie their job
Like Ricky retweets praise? Afterlife is a sitcom where the only good thing is the dog and the repeated use of the word cunt is the height of the comedy in it.I’m really glad she made sure to let everyone know what a wonderful person she is.
Yawn.
She's hardly the only one, but she is by all accounts one of the worst offendersShe's very much a 'change a word, get a third' singer.
This lady is 96 years old and still acting up a storm. Most might know her from the 80s sitcom Roseanne where she played Roseanne Barr's Mom. I saw her onstage in Tony Kushners A Bright Room Called Day in NYC in last 2019 and she was amazing.
Saw Patricia Routledge on TikTok earlier, 95!
Former NFL player Vontae Davis has also died, he was only 35Not really a celebrity but the columnist Sarah Whiteley from the Metro has died suddenly. Only 39. Most of her stories were about her two young children. I couldn't relate to them but it's no age to go and will be an awful time for her partner.
Yeah I don't doubt her reasons for doing it, I'm just saying in a physical sense: how do you give a sarcastic standing ovation? How does anyone know it was sarcastic? I'm not even saying it can't be done, I'm just wondering what happened.From what I remember from things she's said, she had a real problem with people making jokes or comedies out of punching down at minorities or people who are different.
