            Borat - or SBC in general - is simply offensive anyway. Yet to see him produce anything humorous that doesn't rely on insulting people who aren't in on the "joke".

            Bit like most modern soi disant comedy, come to think of it.

              He should do a skit where someone runs up shouts Allen Akhba and cuts his head off.

              Should bring a few laughs.

                There's many layers to SBC's comedy.
                Because you scratch the surface and find another layer you think that's it.
                The way you describe it he's no cleverer than Jim Davidson. You've missed much.

                caveat: Grimsby was a bit crap.
