6 Jul Roy Chubby Brown and Film student Saffron Kershaw-Mee “I tell Rolf Harris and Gary Glitter jokes - I'm not a paedophile though,” he said.
Description:He's not political in any way, he says, but the key to comedy is, as the old showbusiness adage goes, tragedy plus timing. I said, well its me. Although if you're aware of the foul-mouthed, helmet-wearing comedian's work, the biggest shock is not the swearing - some of which is so old-fashioned it's almost endearing, like a saucy postcard - or the racism, but when, later in the interview, he has the cheek to describe other comics' jokes as "not funny" but "very, very offensive". He can walk on and say nothing and the laughter starts. Those are the people I entertain. He'd be scary, if you didn't know he was wearing a patchwork jacket and trousers. But as famous, funny, successful and wealthy as he is, TV audiences have rarely seen him on the box.
