Just for the record, it wasn't a mate's comment per se: I'm just repeating, pretty much verboten, things he's said in the past (about Julianne Hough, about Robert Downey Jnr and other things) I don't think anyone's suggesting Bacup Nutters ought to be banned, but I do think you'd end up hearing precisely that were they to become more prominent: eg performing at the Royal Festival Hall, appearing on the X Factor or something. There was morris dancing featured in the 2012 Olympics opening ceremony shenanigans. Can anyone really imagine the BBC would have let blackface morris be featured?
