Political correctness has killed this type of thing off. I for one am saddened and yet at the same time glad I was old enough to enjoy this when it came out and therefore experienced it first hand without some nanny state interference.

Very much of its time.
His radio shows are often repeated on 4Extra, and they are cringeworthy IMO. His more whimsical and surrealist standup material is good, but there's precious little of that. It's mostly his unflattering characterisations of people we'd describe nowadays as neuro-diverse. Most of his sketches simply end with the oh so zany character ranting nonsense to a crescendo and lack any greater point or purpose.
The decency bar was *a lot lower* in the 80s. People were a lot crueller because they didn't know any better.
@TBL Political correctness doesn't have agency. The 'nanny state' has been mostly Conservative for the last century, so it is odd that they should have pushed so hard for the things they actively campaign against...

Meant to be taken light-heartedly and not over analysed. But whatever floats your boat

Are you sure you're analysing enough?

Well yes, comparing past attitudes with the present mores usually favours the present.
Nostalgia is the opposite of that process.

If the simple answer doesn't work.
Make up something clever sounding.
