Anyone else sick of Victoria Coren Michell slagging off Roald Dahl on ONLY CONNECT?

Just that - anytime a question has anything to do with Roald Dahl Victoria is doing her best to put the boot in (it has happened at least 4 times now). I think if she dislikes him so much she should not have any questions which are to do with Dahl. I am surprised she is allowed to do this TBH.

(realised I misspelt Mitchell but can't edit it!)

If you were Jewish and you heard who could've been one of your favourite childhood authors describing your race as inherently unpleasant or unsympathetic or whatever anti-Semitism he spouted, you probably wouldn't like him either.

He fought in the war - he was a pilot, he risked his life

Doesn't stop him being anti-semetic, does it?

It becomes more nuanced when you know his legacy saved your child’s life.

You do know that Hitler fought in WW1, FFS?
