It makes a change to hear about a DM story which isn't bashing the Beeb.
Because it's a promo for a twee programme made by, and for, middle class white people. The only kind of programming the Daily Mail thinks the BBC should be making, made by the only kind of people the Daily Mail thinks the BBC should employ.
It's from the DM Online, and the more articles I see from that the more I'm convinced that it's just fluff and written just to attract web traffic. There's no real news content. I was going to say it was written by monkeys. But I think that's an insult to monkeys.
Nothing that the Mail ever claims to be hilarious - their favourite and most over-used word - is ever remotely funny, to me.
While we're about it, I don't see why you have to be considered to be a miseryguts if you disagree with what someone else finds funny, either. I find millions of things amusing, it's just that maybe my sense of humour lies in another direction to some others.
I'm also probably the only person in the universe that can't bloody stand bloody Mary bloody Berry!

Out of a sense of wonder I suppose - to see just how awful it can be!
I don't think you would literally split your sides as you would probably be in hospital now if you did. I think you mean metophorically.
AND? If you both know what's coming why bother to click this? Well, other than to bitch & moan.
Where did either of us say we knew what was coming?
Ya think?
You have my sympathy, It's always a jolt to discover that humour is subjective.
I often feel that way when I venture onto the Politics forum.
Thank you for that Mr Logic. Beep boop.

What makes you think it's Mr? - Beep boop.
Incredible technique. Tekkers (meaning technque/skills) is a slang word popularised by the TV programme "Soccer AM".

There's a character in Viz called Mr Logic. Your post was similar to something he would say. That was the joke.
Oh sorry, I didn't know about a Mr. Logic. My apologies.
Mary Berry out-ranks BBC bashing on the DM PLU scale.
They do, but I think they do it deliberately, as it does automatically wind up a number of their commenters.
As for this video, it is actually one of the more amusing 'hilarious' things they have posted....
No worries

Now, if this advert had featured a non PLU or even, god forbid, Jonathan Ross - then it would have gone down like a cup of cold sick.
