There are plenty of ways to identify a person within a television studio audience. By row or column seat positioning, or attire. There's never been reference to audience member by "white man" so no need to do it with "black man".Zambo wrote: ↑Sun Oct 08, 2023 2:33 pmUtter bollocks.
If dear Fiona had said something prejudiced or derogatory about the black guy, then by all means put her in the stocks, but she used the term to point out who had the floor, like bald man, or the woman with the wig on. Totally innocent until the Mary Whitehouses started to froth.
Fiona Bruce had apologised for her error, and rightly so. The gammons are just looking for another martyrdom to champion.
