Russell Brand v Nigel Farage on BBC Question Time: what to expect [tonight] =D As the revolutionary comedian and the Ukip leader prepare to square off on BBC1this evening, this parody imagines how their joust might go… Michael Deacon [Parliamentary Sketchwriter for The Telegraph] has had some fun here and the result is hilarious! DAVID DIMBLEBY: I’m afraid I’m going to have to stop you both there because I’ve just woken up. Our next question comes from a lady. There she is, lady with the nose. RUSSELL BRAND: Interesting, isn’t it, that Nigel here talks about toast – yet for some reason he’s forgotten to mention that the last Ukip manifesto pledged to ban marmalade on the grounds that it’s “a bit gay”. NIGEL FARAGE: Well, look. As I’m sure Russell is only too well aware, we disowned that manifesto years ago. It’s ridiculous to say we want to ban marmalade because it’s gay. I’ve been very clear about this: marmalade is a perfectly acceptable citrus fruit preserve, enjoyed by millions of normal, red-blooded British men. Lemon curd, on the other hand, is deeply questionable – and if the metropolitan liberal elite want to stick their heads in the sand and pretend that this issue is going to go away, they’re even more out of touch than I thought. DAVID DIMBLEBY: I’m afraid that’s about all we’ve got time for this evening, but do join us next week when we’ll be in Melton Mowbray with Chuka Umunna, Su Pollard, Oswald Mosley, the late Thora Hird and Ivor the Engine. Good night. Read more below..
