Ricky Gervais has said the UK public are now too willing to complain about the slightest offending remark. "For years and years people have said that in Britain political correctness has gone mad, and I've always said, 'B****cks, no it hasn't!” The comedian - who recently received flak for claiming England was “full of losers” - told Heat magazine. “But in the last six months, I've begun to think maybe they've got a point. When I hear about the things people are getting in trouble for saying on the radio or on TV, I think, 'Listen to our podcasts!' We say outrageous things. [If asked to change a script because it was deemed unsuitable to be broadcast] I wouldn't change a word," he added. "I'd say, 'Stand by us, or you don't work with us on this any more.' I'd just shake their hand and say goodbye."
