I spotted that too. It’s very poor and serves to fuel the division (on many fronts) that is so apparent in this episode of Question Time.

I had a cassette tape of Elton’s greatest hits in my first year at university that I played non stop. At the time, 18 year old me thought that the songs on it were ancient. That was in 1984, only 11 years after this song was released. Now I feel like the 1990s were just 10 years ago.

I am aware of the joke in question. Perhaps you would like to explain that one? There is a character limit on Bluesky which prevents a dissertation on the history of comedy.

The premise of the joke is that Jimmy Carr is (purportedly) an edgy comedian who is/will be performing in Saudi Arabia. His name could be misheard as “did you make her”. Hopefully, if you replace “Jimmy Carr” with “did you make her” in the original post, it makes sense of the joke.
