I saw Manning on my 21st birthday. Ro took me to Wolverhampton Civic Hall as a treat.
He was very funny as it happens. So much so, in fact, that I can't remember a single joke or funny comment.
;D

How long 'til the text message jokes start doing the rounds, d'ya reckon? For once, I eagerly await them! (And who the hell sits and comes up with them? Is there some guy sat in a room writing all manner of jokes ready for every celeb's death/jailtime and every conceivable disaster?  ) |

He said what others were too scared to say.

He said what others were too scared to say. Must admit, I'm indifferent on whether he was racist or not (having watched comedy channels in the US, I can assure you it goes both ways - as indeed it should, as long as it's not purely spiteful), but I just didn't think he was particularly funny. Just so my side's aired  |

There's being un-PC and there's being downright racist. I didn't like him but I'm sure loads of people did. RIP anyway

Bernanrd Manning was old school, and a lot of people of his generation make racist and bigotted comments, funny in small doses, but his appeal is far too crass for me. RIP Mr Manning.

Being from what the sun would describe as a "loony lefty household" (presumably in the sentence before they call for me to be fostered), I was never that big a fan. But I can appreciate he helped bring an edge to the comedy world that is refined - but still visible - in the comics of today.
