I’m really sorry to have to reveal this but a video has been uploaded on Tree’s page. It features a screenshot of a joke made by
@Birdie and that being the reason for her being blocked.
Those who reacted (myself included), were then put on blast for laughing. I can only speak for myself here but it’s really sad I feel the need to defend myself. Humour is subjective, we all know this.
One of my favourite jokes from Gavin & Stacey, was when Nessa was talking about not seeing her best friend Carol:
“For all I know she could've been sex trafficked out of here. I doubt it mind, she was bigger than me.”
That line always made me chuckle and was why I found the joke referred to, as funny. I think it’s absolutely insane to insinuate the joke, should in any way be taken as literal. If they had a genuine grievance, why not reach out privately? Posting publicly feels like selective outrage and virtue signalling.
We’ve always had dark humour in CC, many of us
and those who’ve left, have made funny jokes - often
very close to the edge. Should we take those as literal also or did we all enjoy a comedic lenience, that now seems to be misplaced?
Many of us have wished them all well and spoken of our upset and hurt over this split. We haven’t been digging through comments to react after the fact or spin some strange narrative.
I can’t believe it’s gotten to the level of making social media posts about CC. It sounds like she may be dedicating a video to each of us, about being blocked but I could be wrong. It’s a shame she couldn’t just reach out and talk to us
This was sent to me by someone else, as I am of course blocked. I won’t be revealing the source but I fear they may soon be blocked also. It’s possible they might have been set up to see this, by remaining unblocked and feeling pressured to pass it on.
