They could have started with a close up of Davina telling a bad joke and then saying "it wasn't that bad surely" as the camera zoomed out to show emptiness and wind sounds.

I loved the comedy wind sounds over the no-crowd shot into the break.
They should have put a tumbleweed there too.

I just want to make a point here and dont slag me off for saying this because it's true. Fifty years ago Irish people who came to Britain were reffered to as ''Paddys''. Now whats the difference in calling Shilpa a ''Paki''. I think both these terms are derogatory and well plain wrong. So here I think that people saying that Is this the society we live in today? are wrong... we have lived in it for a long time.

Fair point, actually I was going to say what was different but it's not really.
I suppose the difference now is that Paddy is used in a more jokey, friendly way. teh majority of people who use p**i use it in a nasty way & until it changes in the same was as paddy, Yankee, Jock or Taff then it will still be taboo.
BTW I can't be the only one who dislikes it when Asians call each other p**i or black people call each other n****r. I don't call fellow white people h*****y so why do they call each other that???

Too little too late IMO. She has been a vicious little bully. Too late to back peddle out of her nasty venomous comments i'm afraid. Crocodile tears don't wash with me.

It's called 'reclaiming' it's suposed to be empowering. some gay guys have done the same with queer and fag...
