Go on then I'll bite - what is the 3-second rule?

I'm sure that is not applicable chez Red where I'd be more than happy to eat off the floor let alone pick up cutlery.

Gypsy women inherit a cleaning gene Ralph, it's like a form of carbolic fuelled tourettes.

If it's nailed down, wash it. If it's not nailed down, take it outside and wash it.

This looks terrible, and there is a lot of obvious hate thrown at Gypsies in the World, but I do hate the cut off straight after.  It feels like he could be making some point, but we don't know what it is without the context of what came before and after.  It is entirely possible he is just making some offensive joke, and that is it, and if it was, he should be condemned.

I watched the show - the cut off was just before. He started that section by talking something like it's not worth going to see "edgy" comedians if they're not "edgy" so here are all the career enders.

Conceputally that seems fine - but a bunch of his "edgy" jokes like that rely on people still finding it funny anyway.

To be honest it was a disappointing show, I was used to his asides on game shows but if that was representative of his normal standup career then I think his material and the structure of his show is several decades out of date.

I saw the entire show, that joke was one of a set that he calls his 'career ending' jokes.

I like Jimmy Carr and I laugh when he makes jokes about other people so I can't complain too much.

I know a lot about the true Horror of the Holocaust and I'm a Gypsy. Perhaps I'm just too close to be objective.

Clarkson announced his new Grand Tour show with, "We will travel so much we will be like Gypsies, except our cars will be insured".

I laughed at that.

That's fabulous.

Is it just me or does anyone else find this utterly fascinating?

I wince at lots of jokes that are close to the bone; I did at this one.  I don't think you are too close; my first thought on seeing it was a section marked 'career ending' jokes was so why do it?  He seems to be more than capable of making good jokes without getting so offensive. 

Anyway top work from the kid in the parrot film, doesn't look the easiest terrain to retrieve a go pro from.

I just assumed it was an old film and not that recent.   Feels like he wouldn't make the same joke with the Gypsies mentioned first and the Jews second.
