Dispatches on Saturday night

Post by CEB »

Rumours that there’s an explosive episode of dispatches airing on Saturday night in advance of a big story on Sunday.
I’ve heard speculation that a certain comedian might be about to be VERY #metoo’d, but how reliable that is I don’t know.
Any one heard anything?

Is it likely to be a big story in Little Britain?

I'm just hoping that none of the nation's favourite comedy lines are embargoed. Fingers crossed that 4 candles, Triggers broom, Two copies of Panda, "don't tell 'em Pike" et al are safe.

Have to stress I have no idea if this is an accurate guess but there's certainly been plenty of smoke over the years.

I’ve got my fingers crossed for a certain long haired beardy comedian turned cult leader/conspiracy theorist . There’s been a whiff around him for a while

Hope so, could never understand what the fascination was about him. That Walliams got away with murder for too long also. Terrible show he had.

Though if what I’m hearing is true, by Sunday morning he might be one of the least cancelled comedians… apparently there’s a LOT of careers about to end

Definitely gonna stock up on biscuits. I saw the odious Toby Young saying the Sunday Times were working overtime on a big weekend scoop, assume this might be the same thing then?
