Mandy - starring Diane Morgan (Philomena Cunk)

[lolly]

In a relatively short period, Diane Morgan really has gifted us three iconic comedy characters, hasn't she? I can't imagine ever not wanting to watch her in something. I even get excited by her voiceovers in adverts.

‘I’ve not got a problem with making myself look disgusting’: the wild rise of Diane Morgan

From Avon lady to TikTok superstar, Diane Morgan has become a global comic darling. As her raucous comedy Mandy returns, she talks about why she almost asked the BBC to pull it – and why she pretends to be a robot for an hour a day

The thought of coming home to Mandy and Only Connect will hopefully make tomorrow feel a lot more tolerable.

Another glorious 2 hours!

If only Mandy was ON Only Connect. It’s the collaboration we need!

Without knowing what it is, it sounds like right wing censorship probably something to do with Trump. If any of that is remotely close to the truth then that's ridiculous.

Also it probably won't be on until next year, which is also mental.

 

[Tisch]

I'm reading it was filmed ages ago in January, so yeah I can only assume there's some jokes in there that won't fly now. And it can't be a simple one-liner they could have just edited out either.

That or its JUST SHIT.

If it was just shit they'd put it on on Christmas Day evening when they think everyone will be too pissed to care

Hello Amandaland

 

[Soldi]

I liked Amandaland

 

[Shirley]

It was all right but that scheduling and Jennifer Saunders don't fill me with ANTICIPATION

 

[Agneeta]

I liked Amandaland

I think most of us enjoyed it.

 

[lolly]

Yes, I enjoyed Amandaland a lot. And am looking forward to seeing Jennifer Saunders in it.

 

[ManicKangaroo]

Well that sucks

 

[PGCMc]

Disappointed about Mandy. Amandaland is good but nowhere near as good as Motherland.

According to the latest Popbitch newsletter

It’s expected to go out - with edits - in early 2026. But this time it’s not jokes about Trump causing headaches for the Beeb. The actual reason for it being pulled was a sequence in which Vladimir Putin gets bludgeoned to death.
