There are plenty of celebrities with children I have never heard of, he wouldn't make a joke about someone's kids if they weren't in the media - what would be the point? And whose fault is it if Harvey appears in the public eye? His mum's - the TARGET of the joke.

Channel 4 is not a public service channel - it is paid for by advertising.
I just bought a tv licence - it pays for the BBC only.

A previous poster asserted that Harvey would be "ridiculed" beacause of the show - my point was to show how ridiculous that claim was.
Even if he was the butt of the joke (personally i still think it was aimed at his mother for placing him in the limelight) it was a JOKE.
Lighten up ffs.

So I can be offensive as I like about anyone in regards to their sexuality,race,religion,gender,height,disabilty but as long as I claim it is a joke that excuses me from any litigation or responsibility?
Nice world you live in.
