Yes it was.
In that case I retract and slap myself on the back of the hand.
Not that it matters a jot either way of course.

Maybe she gives the most incredible blowies?
Or, more likely, the judges thought she was funny.

From what she said last time I heard her that's probably not far off the truth.
A total role model for Charley.

I'm not usually this bitchy, but, I'm watching Jenny Eclair, now, on 'The Late Edition', and I'm just wondering, how the FUCK did she ever win the Perrier prize?

She's one of those infuriating all girls/guys/gays/vampires together. Who use faux chumminess to excuse pretty nasty low grade material, and naked prejudice. She's as nasty as Bernard Manning, but less funny.
She's a sort of comedy vacume, in that you actively want to laugh less after watching her.
The ASDA of satire.
"Thoughtcrime was not a thing that could be concealed forever. You might dodge successfully for a while, even for years, but sooner or later they were bound to get you." Which is exactly what happened to Winston Smith. His rebellion was not one that was foolish and too outspoken. He silently tried to defeat the Party for his personal happiness, and in the end it cost him everything he had fought for, and his love for Julia. He had learned to love Big Brother, which was his ultimate fear when trying to live a life of individuality. The Party had defeated him.

Putting the merits of her comedy to one side, I think she's really morphing into Sue Pollard tinged with Judy Finnigan skincare - or lack of it.

Thats a bit unfair, you wouldn't call RIki Gervais tubby. Her unattractive looks, have nothing to do with how unfunny she is.

Ummm, I think that I have seen the occasional jibe at Ricky's physique from uncouth persons. Just here and there.
I'm no fan of Jenny Eclair. But I don't think I'm in her target audience anyway.

But at least if she was fit she'd be watchable.
No, you're right, it's sexist.
