Comedians should not play with peoples emotions because everyone has feelings. Yes it was slightly over the top and Jonathan Ross and Mr Brand should know better.

I think this whole thing is silly…they’re both comedians and thats what they do..there are so much bigger and more important things to worry about its sad to see what gets attention..The target audience were not offended..its just a bunch of whinny old gits with nothing better to do who are doing the complaining!! Get a life!!!

Wasn’t the show broadcast after the watershed along with a warning of what the show might contain (bad language, content of a sexual nature etc…) , i’m suprised that some of Russell Brand’s audience complained, we all know what he’s like by now.

He did apparently sleep with her anyway so it’s not like it’s a fraudulent claim it’s the truth.

I do think they can go a bit too far sometimes but I still watch them and listen to them both as they also ask things others are too scared to ask.

TV / Radio would be quite boring without these two.

Well, guess we now all know what happened. Both deserved the punishment that came their way. My only worry was Mrs Douglas who had no connection with it but resigned. I wouldn’t-

But dont you think PM should comment its just the world we live in now. Being a PM has some celeb status now and thats why we are not in love with Gordon and would rather have David Cameroon as PM

So Gordon must show that side of him knowing what happening. There is no running from the fact that PM or president is a celebrity role now

I totally agree, these guys are employed to be offensive and the element of danger is an essential part of their comedy. They do worse than this all the time and it is the job of the producers to judge what is acceptable for broadcast. To make these guys into scapegoats doesn’t achieve anything even though I think what they said crossed the line a bit. I say sack the producers.
