“There are limits to my comedy. There are things that I’ll never laugh at. The handicapped. Because there’s nothing funny about them. Or any deformity. It’s like when you see someone look at a little handicapped and go ‘ooh, look at him, he’s not able-bodied. I am, I’m prejudiced.’ Yeah, well, at least the little handicapped fella is able-minded. Unless he’s not, it’s difficult to tell with the wheelchair ones.â€

This is the poem Slough, by Sir John Betjeman. probably never been here in his life.Come friendly bombs and fall on Slough! It isn't fit for humans now, ..........(right, I don't think you solve town planning problems by dropping bombs all over the place, he's embarrassed himself there, next.) In labour-saving homes, with care Their wives frizz out peroxide hair And dry it in synthetic air And paint their nails......(They wanna look nice...does he like girls?)And talk of sport and makes of cars In various bogus-Tudor bars And daren't look up and see the stars But belch instead. (what's he all about? what, he's never burped?)Come, friendly bombs and fall on Slough To get it ready for the plough. The cabbages are coming now; The earth exhales. (He's the only cabbage round here.)And they made him a knight of the realm........overrated.
You grow up, you work half a century, you get a golden handshake, you rest a couple of years and you’re dead. And the only thing that makes that crazy ride worthwhile is ‘Did I enjoy it? What did I learn? What was the point?’ That’s where I come in. You’ve seen how I react to people, make them feel good, make them think that anything’s possible. If I make them laugh along the way, sue me. And I don’t do it so they turn round and go ‘Thank you David for the opportunity, thank you for the wisdom, thank you for the laughs.’ I do it so, one day, someone will go ‘There goes David Brent. I must remember to thank him.
