It had to happen, didn’t it? When our only escape is having a giggle at something good on the box, the fun police decide to get involved. Latest to fall victim is the brilliant BBC show The Royle Family, which now has to be screened with a ‘woke warning’ that it contains discriminatory language.

Written, of course, by the late, great and hugely talented Caroline Aherne, who also starred in the show. Aah, but she also crafted the line where grouchy Jim – played by Ricky Tomlinson – calls the host of Changing Rooms a ‘nancy boy’. Maybe it’s this?
