Andrew Man111 Not sexist in the slightest, I think you’ll find that most of those criticizing her or belittling her talent seem to be of the male persuasion. But... some of her most vocal supporters are also male, those who’ve actually watched her shows and listened to her words. And who says you’re in the majority? Just because you don’t know about something doesn’t mean you outnumber those who do. The Emmy awards might give a hint that she’s pretty good. Killing Eve won loads last year and Fleabag this year. Not bad going for someone who you don’t rate. Anyway, off you pop, there’s probably some Jackass reruns on somewhere.
