I go back and forth on him. I find him quite funny and interesting on the radio but his books are some of the most self-indulgent twaddle I have read, and I have never seen a man more incomprehensibly in love with himself. He's a bit like Stephen Fry in that he clearly fancies himself as an avant-garde outsider kicking it to the man but is as establishment as they come.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

What could be wrong with portraying a child of mixed race as a monkey?

He saw the original image, put it in a tweet, typed the words to go with it and pressed "post".

4 opportunities to think to himself that it would be unwise to post this. And he still went ahead and did so.

I suspect it’s a doing a racism issue.

The thought hadn’t crossed my mind originally, and maybe it didn’t his either. Nevertheless, the turds will hit the fan.

Danny Baker isn't known for racist views. Simple mistake IMO... which the media and twitterati will no doubt jump on.

Agree with you on most apart from that I love Stephen Fry and think DB's radio is very good.

His audio books are a shocking. I've not got half-way through one of them. May even get my refund from Audible.

His radio is very good. Mrs H and I love the Saturday fooling.

Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me. Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing. Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial. Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid. Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

It's almost as if the actions of a person in the past should be taken into account, to see if there is a pattern of behaviour. Wouldn't you agree?

No, that's what I'm saying. It's easier to believe that a person isn't racist and has made a genuine mistake if, like Danny Baker, they don't have a history of making racist statements or gaffs.

Erm. The relationship between Miss Markle and Mr Hewitt had sparked a lot of public coverage about race, hadn't it? Maybe it's just my perception, but I recall quite a lot of news stories making a great deal about her being a POC and marrying into the royal family.

For Baker D to not have noticed seems odd to me. Not that I find him important, funny or relevant in any way (sorry).

There's nothing odd about it. You, and other people, are overthinking.
