Good point, I'm not claiming this is definitely the main reason but if most comedy show commissioning editors (especially at the Beeb) are more likely to be left-leaning Guardian readers and very sympathetic to the woke agenda and terrified of the cancel culture social media mobs then perhaps...
In the interests of diversity and inclusivity, it would be nice if more truly 'alternative' comedians could be found, encouraged and given a chance. After all, the lefty liberal comedians have been the comedy establishment for decades.
The only character that has had any real satirical bite in my view is Titania McGrath but 'she' would never get commissioned by any mainstream channel.
The liberal left, Guardian reading, woke set should be comedy gold for any self-respecting non-pc comedian as they are so far up their own backsides even colonic irrigation couldn't extract them.
Hopefully, something better will replace this very average and predictable show.
