Reflecting on the joy of comedy, the entertainer told Marr: “It’s easy to dismiss comedy when we see all the terrible things going on in the world, but as I get older, I actually think the opposite is true.”“So, the role of something that actually brings a little joy to your life, it’s not just fairly important, it’s crucial, actually.
Labeling the discharge of raw sewage into the UK’s waterways “shocking” and “a disgrace”, Whitehouse adds: “The main protagonist and the villain of the piece here, in many instances, is the policy of the water companies.”
