I am useless at telling jokes and I have one joke I am able to remember. What do you call a donkey with three legs? Wonkey. Boom, boom.
I might be rubbish at telling jokes but I appreciate humour. I grew up watching Victoria Wood, French and Saunders, Julie Walters and have always liked the more satirical , current affairs programmes like Spitting Image, Have I got news for you, Drop the Dead Donkey. However there is a programme which makes me laugh so much I cry. It’s a bit of a guilty secret but I adore You’ve Been Framed! I never laugh like this in real life but I crack up and laugh myself hoarse when I watch it. I’m as much of the entertainment for my children as the clips. I put this down to being a healthy release from the stress of everyday life. Everybody needs to laugh and as I’m useless with jokes I find my laughter in silly video clips.

You’ve brought back some memories! I had the spitting image songs, on vinyl! The funniest thing about You’ve been framed, for me, is watching my son crack up x
Children just love it don’t they, I think it’s the slap stick. Spitting Image was a very clever programme, i remember the chicken song but there were some v satirical and poignant music too.
