Bruce Forsyth needs to keep a lid on it

Well its finally happened Bruce Forsyths brain has dropped into his chin, rendering him an utter buffoon with a severe case of verbal diarreah .

The racial 'gaffe' Anton Du Beke made in calling fellow strictly partner Laila Rouass a highly derogatory term was bad enough without Forsyth wading in to add his 'Brucie Bonus' two cents.

The octogenarian whom its rumoured the BBC consider a bit past it to put it politely further fuelled the situation by stating on of all places Talk Sport Radio, random but Idigress that we the public should have more of a sense of humour about the whole thing digging more of a hole by going on to say:

"We used to have a sense of humour about this. You go back 25, 30, 40 years and there has always been a bit of humour about the whole thing. At one time the Americans used to call us 'limeys' which doesn't sound very nice, but we used to laugh about it. Everybody has a nickname.'

Good god let me slap him now! need I remind you Mr Forsyth that you are from the generation of comedians who believed Bernard Manning racist bigot extraordinaire was funny, Alf Garnett was likely thought normal and people on TV blacked themselves up as minstrels and danced around like a bunch of oafs for the viewing public's light entertainment!

I do believe being seen as politicaly correct these days goes to far, but this is just too much.

Now I don't think Bruce is racist one bit but the old man needs to brush up n oh what say 30-40 years of societies progression and stick to the shows script or get out.
