    "His scrotum isn't used to strangers
    There are no condoms on his shelf
    When his tones caress and soften
    When he asks, 'D'you come here often?'
    He is talking to himself."
    God, I miss this woman so much.

    What was so wonderful about her, and what set her apart, was that, however clever her songs were, she never seemed to be saying "look at me, aren't I clever?". There was a great humanity about her humour, which invited us all to share in it. She was very special. R. I. P.

(She's my favourite comedian) When I woke up the day after I just wanted to stay in bed because I was so upset! (Yes you might think that's sad) 62years of age and no one knew she was ill… I just can't get over the fact that she's died! Been watching her sketches and comedy ever since I found them, and will continue to do so… only now it will be bittersweet knowing she's no longer shining her light in this world, but another one instead, and that we only have the fantastic comedy and hilarious memories left :( 💔 xx

    Look at her face at 1:09 after dropping 2 racial slurs in her first 2 lines- she was a comic genius! The reason people get in trouble for 'non-PC' jokes isn't because we're all too sensitive- it's because it's incredibly hard to do well, and lazy comedians try to get the shock value without earning it with an intelligent payoff. What a legend.

    The world has just got a little sadder and a little darker.
    A comic genius who found the humour in everyday things without ever being cruel or nasty. RIP Victoria .

      Haha what a typical and boring comment. 'Nothing like this will ever be shown these days'. It really is a shame that we can't racially abuse people on TV anymore isn't it? You absolute moron.
