BBC let something slip through today

In 'Mr and Mrs Smith' on R4 at 11.30 someone said something really
sceptical about anthropogenic global warming. Or was I dreaming?

Are you sure ? You don't need to get your head examined, do you Bill ?

I didn't pick up on that, but I have to say it's the first situation
comedy on the Home Service that has made me laugh in a good while.

Most of them are embarrassingly dire.

I don't think they understood it really.

Eh? Like Old Harry's Game? Bleak Expectations? Clare in the Community?

Had it done mate! They said it was all in the mind. So that's all right
then.

That Golden Years one is very good. The only thing that spoilt the last
episode was that when a character made a deeply sexist remark (intended
as a joke because the thing is based in the middle class 1930s and the
central joke of the programme is the values of that era) a section of
the audience booed. This showed that they had totally misunderstood the
was the comedy worked, and reminded the rest of us what a deeply
intolerant lot the left/liberal people can be.

I have this odd thing that moments in programmes take me back to where I
was when i first heard them.
Claire in the Community: The Barlboro' junction on the M1, just leaving
the southbound and going onto the roundabout.
Old Harry's Game: the services on the M74 somewhere well north of
Carlise, just parking in a corner near some machinery.
Bleak Expectations: my office.

Nice to hear you acknowledge that such remarks belong in the past.

Perhaps it was a joke.
