Quality of the joke aside, what did it need to be relevant to? Plenty of the jokes in that montage had nothing to do with anything.
Nish’s “joke” about Jesus not being white - I mean, talk about misreading the room. Why was it relevant?t

Because it didn’t make any sense. The montage was different comedians doing jokes and skits about being in isolation etc. I don’t understand why it needed to end with Nish telling people that they were stupid for not realising Jesus wasn’t white. It was just odd.

The everlasting irony of comedians fighting racism by bringing colour into absolutely everything.

The Little Britain stuff was also so blatantly unfunny. Without that programme's casual sexism, racism and bigotry it's nothing really is it?

Would have been an editorial decision to include it.

I think that was the joke really. Both of them have spoken many times about how they couldn't do stuff now they got away with then.

Exactly. They even mentioned that in the “I’m a Lady” sketch last night (Matt Lucas saying “I don’t know if we should be doing this...”) Personally I found the Little Britain skits last night quite funny - each was just long enough to avoid getting repetitive (which was always my criticism of the original series) and the homemade costumes made it more entertaining than it should have been.
Overall the whole production was all quite well put together. Some sketches didn’t quite land (I’m looking at you Miranda!) but contributions are always hit and miss even in regular Telethons.

Most of them had nothing to do with isolation. (Including the words "before the lockdown..." in the joke doesn't count).

It really stuck out, it was almost like it had been extracted from some other production or he’d been given a brief for something completely different.

It was extracted, I thought straight away I'd seen it before, I think it was just taken
from The Mash Report a couple of weeks back. Quite why they chose to use that clip is anyone's guess.
