He & the Festival are being criticised for mocking Tourettes.

It's the age we're living in now and we should continue to refuse to subscribe . As Billy Connolly said " Anything's fair game when it comes to humour "Quote:

Personally I think it's a load of ball-bags and as a joke it's barely worth a quick snigger, I think the bigger story should be "Edinburgh fringe festival yet again fails to bring anything funny to the table".
Exactly, if it's said in jest and not directly at someone who could personally be hurt by it then where's the harm.Quote:

I fail to see how that is anyone else's problem but your own.
