Daily Mail readers get their knickers in a bunch. Again
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vbqN9bB1MI Specifically about the last bit with Phil Glenister saying "The bird prancing about in her underwear". Apparently this is sexist. I mean come on, this is from a guy who plays a character who routinely comes out with things like this little gem - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYeNu...eature=related I think some people seriousyl need a sense of humour transplant.

Obviously Britain is a land run by fascist socialists (or is that socialist fascists, cypress_z help me out here ) and you should revolt.
Or at the very least stage a protest.

![]() This is just a silly instance of people getting riled about someone being politically incorrect. As we all know, political correctness is as stupid a concept as ever existed. I've always thought it a good thing that some people are offended by your statements - it means you're probably telling the truth, and they don't like it. Besides - you can't please everyone, and trying to just leads to bland lies and stagnation. There's always going to be some idiot who complains whenever you say something true, interesting, or in a direct manner. My view? Say the truth, without maliciousness, but whether or not they like it, whenever it's most opportune and frankly, fun.

The people who are complaining obviously haven't watched "Life on Mars" or "Ashes to Ashes" then.
Even then, what the hell did he say that was so offensive.
