YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn an interview with Mariella Frostrup on Times Radio, comedian Dawn French said impact of cancel culture means we could be losing the "edgy people" from comedy.
She went on: "I want those edgy people there challenging us all the time and making us laugh.
"The kind of laughs you have when you think that’s one of the naughtiest things I’ve ever heard, or there’s a person inventing a character who is everything awful.
"But now I just don’t know if you’d ever be able to do that because you’d just have so many haters on your back and I don’t know how we explore it anymore. I’m quite glad to be my age, in a way."
