Good god, those pearls are getting a right good clutch from the "even in the 1970s this didn't happen" crowd. Sheesh. Get some perspective. We've had camp drag since before Shakespeare, it's not some new thing for crying out loud.
Maggie Thatcher was a big fan of the unfeasibly smutty Kenny Everett... he of the "Let's bomb Russia" conservative party conference speech fame. Here's his smutty drag persona, Cupid Stunt. On prime time television in the early 80s. A family show, believe it or not.
The American General: Closet Commies, Pinko Subversives, Progressive Liberal Faggy Ideas... Bomb The bastards!Mr Angry of Mayfair: Switch off those effeminate TV johnnies!Any country that clutches its pearls over an adult-only drag act that's intentionally smutty but harmless, but doesn't have a problem with the rampant body-shaming and sexualising of minors that goes on in THIS peculiarly American nonce-fest needs a good dry slap.
