I used to enjoy the late night comedies on radio 4 extra. Maybe it the type of comedy at this current time, but I don't find it as funny. They play the occasional Mary Whitehouse or Victor Lewis Smith but these days it's very occasional

Me too. On the Hour which was a precursor to The Day Today and Brass Eye were good. I used to enjoy repeats of The Navy Lark which used to be on very late at night too.

Think comedy is going to struggle in this new era of political correctness, I'm not enjoying it so much these days.
