Joan Rivers , Sarah Silverman , Larry David in Curb your Enthusiasm wrote a whole episode which had a holocaust survivor and a tv reality show contestant arguing about who had faced the bigger challenge ( in a funny way not nasty) .
I don't watch curb your enthusiasm because I don't find Larry David remotely funny. Sarah is a shock comedian and Joan's joke was tasteless. No worries, I know Anti Semitism is on the rise in the UK. As this thread and the others excusing him prove. Good job he didn't make a Crusader joke... |

So none then. Btw, I missed the part where Biggins was Jewish. Where he was on stage or on tv making a joke. This idea that telling someone Jewish to watch out for the gas chamber was remotely funny.

As I have said it is all about context not what a tabloid might say and in order for anyone to make an informed judgement you would need to hear exactly what was said and how it was said and he did apologise . Katie Wassel denied even knowing why Biggins had been removed in her TV interview in ITV ( one has to ask was that due to an exclusive with The Sun later which to me is equally bad if money took precedence over the subject Anti Semitism ) , he was if you believe press reports not removed for that joke/comment either but was warned , Katie herself said nothing until after he had an interview then she blasted him as nasty in her interview. Personally my feeling would be Biggins is not an anti semite, given the number of Jewish friends he has I cannot see them accepting him if he was. |

And you heard him say that ? Katie Wassell has stated she did not know why he was removed so he obviously did not say what the fake transcript said he did on that occasion
