Anyone watching comic relief?

[Whisky2014]

I put it on because I thought it woukd be entertaining but actually, its pretty boring and flat. (Not talking about the causes sections)

Mermaids is the organisation supporting kids who think they are trans - unfortunately, as one of DD's friends showed - they might not actually be trans, it just seems to be more socially acceptable/trendy than coming out as a lesbian...in Germany, no mermaids and so the parents let her be gender non-conforming for a year and she then decided she wasn't trans after all. She might have been an exception, and I do think that kids need support, no question - but breast-binding, puberty blockers and hormones have consequences (see Jazz Jennings). Transgender Trend give a counter argument/opposing view.
I think teachers should have the right to discuss LGBT issues in a supportive fashion - I certainly do not want the likes of fecking clause 28 making a return but I think impressionable kids should be given facts to make informed decisions and that everyone should be taught they don't have to fit into a box or have a label or wear x,y,z or like this colour or that any preferences means they are this gender or that gender. Don't be a sheep in other words, let your freak flag fly and like your body how it is, in all shapes and sizes.
Caveat: I do not suffer from gender dysphoria. I do think though that vulnerable kids, especially ASD kids, need protecting from any bandwagon/trend/ideology that - despite claiming gender to be fluid - seems intent on forcing kids to change bodies like it's biology picknmix as opposed to destroying body parts.
That would make me a terfy transphobe as opposed to an open-minded person, who embraces anyone.

Barrie Humphries narrating Australian Natural history on BBC2 is much better

Comic relief needs a 5 year rest

I, too, am waiting for 4 weddings but I am going to give up and watch Queer Eye if they don't blooming hurry up with it.

I also have a big problem with the single use consumerism of red noses and shite fancy dress

and the anti women, anti gay ethos of some of the 'charities' supported (Mermaids)

Watched about 10 minutes of it a dit was cringe worthy dross.

4 weddings is on now

Oh dear, a bit try-hard and relying on Rowan Atkinson, who I never found funny. No duckface and RIP Charlotte Coleman.

Oh dear.....

Who are these two? I do know and can't think

What a let down. Gutted

The two women getting married I mean

That was a damb squib, no? And humour based on man-wife 'jokes' when it was a lesbian couple getting hitched
Am off to Netflix. Night x

Damn missed it.

That was proper shit. And yes who were those actresses.

Kenandbarbie dont worry. It wasn't funny.

That ham-tastic.

So much hype....it’s awful and unfunny. Lenny used to be spontaneous, but he’s wooden now. What’s happening

One was Lily James

Very lazy. Richard Curtis loves to roll out the minorities to show how right on he is. Smacks of tokenism.

*that was ham-tastic.

Lily James and Alicia Vikander.

Lenny Henry has always been unfunny.

It's doing better than the last one, that was terrible!

Lily James and Alicia Vikander

Just to clarify, my comments were about the show in general not four weddings and a funeral ...
