Did she look anything like Little Miss Jocelyn, then?

her attitude was very similar, but she was not amused when I got her
to watch that show. "What do you think I am, an A to Z?" was one
of my favourite lines.


A shame they took it off the air. Many clips are still available on
youtube, though.


It was incredibly offensive (to blacks, I thought) and some episodes
scarcely had a laugh, others were very good.



Why should a white person feel uncomfortable or even offended by a
black person making jokes about black people?

You can take political correctness too far.

Little Miss Jocelyn was both intelligent and hilarious - in my
opinion, one of the funniest comedy programmes of recent years!

However, the novelty wore off. The first series was nominated for a
BAFTA but the second series didn't attract such a big audience despite
being moved from BBC3 to BBC2. It got some poor reviews. Perhaps
there was too much carried over from the first series and not enough
new material.
