He never said anything about Belinda Emmet except their name. They did that deliberately because Belinda Emmet deserved the praise she got when she died.

I wasn't aware of any Monty Python skit where these people were made fun of. The reason for that is they had too much style and class to stoop so low. I never stated that they "copied" a Monty Python skit, I stated "This is a crude imitation of Monty Python" it was a comment about the style and I stand by it, it is a crud imitation.
@shihadrocks15 жыл бұрын
Authors description is not QUITE right. Should have said "sure to offend just about everyone who has satire go right over their heads". This was the Chaser at their best. Its delivered in such a jaunty camera-winking tone that I cannot believe people didn't see the satirical intent behind it and just saw it as dead celebrity bashing. Love it, take a bow Chaser lads. You are spot on.

Give it a couple of years for the rest of the world to catch up with the genius behind the Chasers and the likes of TT and ACA will be running a special on how groundbreaking and billiant they were. It happens with all the best of comedy... they are slammed as despicable and offensive but given enough time it magically transforms into the stuff of legends. Examples-MontyPython, FawltyTowers, RichardPrior, EddieMurphy, LittleBritain, GrahamKennedy, DAAS.

She didn't spend 11 months on holiday plus she spent a huge amount of her time doing charitable work all over the world. As a result she is still the moat recognisable advocate for land mine victims, she did more for charity than anyone else in the Royal Family. BTW although i disagreed with what she did in her personal life it would be stupid to define her legacy bases on her personal life.

It's funny and what you expect from the Chaser. No-one was offended until the predictable bunch of radio jocks, the commercial TV (so called) curent affairs shows and Howard and Rudd beat it up. All that did was to give the Chaser more publicity. They probably couldn't be happier.

Actually, they did a tribute song for him as well. Of course, it wasn't anything to do with him at all, and it was more along the lines of "Why can't all of the shitty singers die instead?" but that's besides the point. And anyway, saying mean stuff about Michael Jackson would have made for an unoriginal joke.

Chris Taylor wrote this. Andrew's just the showman for this particular one. In fact, I saw this several months before it went to air at the 'Dead Caesar' production at Wharf2Loud. It was clever and I didn't find it offensive there, even though it was worse. For example, there was no siren and Kerry Packer was called a cunt. (Which was true). I personally thought it was great. Besides, its not like the dead peopl can get pissed about it. Coz... they're dead.
