The BBC has removed 11 sketches from That Mitchell and Webb Look after deciding they no longer “work today”. The cuts reportedly include sketches involving blackface, a burka and a “tribe” in a garden centre. Comedian Dom Joly has criticised the move as “censorship”, while the BBC says it selected the sketches that still work for modern audiences. Julia Hartley-Brewer interviews comedian and broadcaster Steve N Allen. #BBC #MitchellAndWebb #Comedy #Censorship #BBCiPlayer #DavidMitchell #RobertWebb #BritishComedy #ComedySketches #UKNews Have you got a story?
