She made a joke about Ashley Banjo's penis

Did she? Confused I thought she was talking about his muscular physique

The80sweregreat · 13/05/2018 21:15

Soup, I thought that too!

BumpowderSneezeonAndSnot · 13/05/2018 21:15

Her comment was very base smutty innuendo about him. Unacceptable the other way round so why should it be ok for her to make comment like that?

SoupDragon · 13/05/2018 21:16

I did not for one single second think she was talking about his penis. And I’m good at base smutty innuendo

I disliked her before this show. Worse now, she's making me cringe she's so unfunny and embarrassing. Her comment about Ashley Banjo was appalling.

wonderstuff · 13/05/2018 21:20

I love her.

AuntyJackiesBrothersSistersBoy · 13/05/2018 21:20

She’s looking fabulous!

Sparklingbrook · 13/05/2018 21:22

I presumed it was because he had a good physique too. Nothing to do with his penis because that would be really strange.

Puffycat · 13/05/2018 21:22

Big fan of funny, intelligent women.
Sue Perkins, Victoria Coren-Mitchell, Sandy Toksvig...........

BumpowderSneezeonAndSnot · 13/05/2018 21:28

I also assumed it was about his physique. But why does that make the comments any better?

overnightangel · 13/05/2018 21:29

She’s painfully untalented.
Actually, she’s just painful full stop

The80sweregreat · 13/05/2018 21:32

So glad The Rio documentary has an award!

Geordiegirl1988 · 13/05/2018 21:33

She is not funny at all ! Even the audience was cringing

Hepzibar · 13/05/2018 21:33

I didn't really have an opinion of her until this evenings BAFTA's; but I've really liked her

LipstickHandbagCoffee · 13/05/2018 21:34

TeamSue? That’ll barely muster a five a side footy team

Graphista · 13/05/2018 21:42

More than 5 #teamsue here I think.

I love her. And I've enjoyed her tonight too. Though I watch so little 'real' telly now I've barely recognised many of the shows let alone the actors!

Sparklingbrook · 13/05/2018 21:44

Yep, a quick count it seems there's enough for an 11 a side. Grin

TheToldYouSoDance · 13/05/2018 21:47

Just starting watching; she’s dying on her arse. Should have got Mel to do it.

LipstickHandbagCoffee · 13/05/2018 21:47

11 eh,as many as that
Who’d have thunk it

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 13/05/2018 21:51

OMG forget Sue, I’m getting misty eyed at Kate Adie (Great LadyGrin) big when I was little...

Brokenbiscuit · 13/05/2018 21:54

Didn't watch her tonight but I bloody love her. She is intelligent and empathetic. Sometimes the jokes fall flat but I really don't care - I still want to be her best mate!

JaneJeffer · 13/05/2018 21:56

*why does everyone presenting an award need to make crappy jokes

just present the bloody award*

Well exactly!

I like Sue but I didn't like the bits of this that I saw. Too much anti-men stuff. Imagine if it was the other way around.

augustusglupe · 13/05/2018 22:04

Can’t stand her and I wish the Beeb would stop shoving her on everything!! Ditto Sue and Mary!
Watching Eddie the eagle on ch4, it’s brill.

MediocrePenguin · 13/05/2018 22:12

Oh I thought she was referring to how 'hard' he was!! Clearly a dirty mind 😂
