What possessed her to end her routine with that really dire and patronising jibe about the North.

So old, so fucking annoying. Not funny, just rude.

I didn’t watch it. What was the jibe?

That if you went to Sunshine beach in Australia it would be wonderful, sparkling sands and seas.
If you went in the UK.......she then launched into her impersonation of a Northern person complete with mock cig hanging out of her mouth, going "Are yer aw reet love".

I'm so sodding sick of people who were born with privileges, taking the piss out of working class Northerners.

It's old, it's boring, it's discriminatory and it's crass.
