Real working class, not Oxbrige who studied what working class is
25 March 2019
I live in the south of England and I can still recognise the situations in a cr ap club, but it's still a brilliant club as a local social meeting place. I had a feeling the writers were real working class, as so much comedy on TV is taken over by Oxbrige ex footlights people, so it's good others have a chance and can show real is better than studying for years what working class people are supposed to be like. I envy how good the northerners are at bringing humour to everyday situations. They aren't stuffy and find it easy to laugh things. The bouncy castle reminded me of a real viral video where children were unknowingly sliding out of a part that looked rude, so made me laugh extra loud when something similar was brought to the show.
