After having watched Nigel Latta's The Politically Incorrect Guide to Grown-Ups (Sundays, TV One, 7pm) which was supposed to shed some light on why "even really smart people choose to believe in wild and outlandish stuff without a shred of evidence", I'm even more confused than I was before I watched the thing.
I don't, for one thing, have a clue what was politically incorrect about it. Are jokes about aliens and anal probes politically incorrect? Perhaps if you are an alien MP.
Also, I thought Latta was a psychologist. He appears to now be a stand-up comic.
I wonder what the aliens and ghosts - the existence or otherwise which cannot be conclusively proved or disproved - would have made of this very odd outing, much of which involved Latta standing on a stage in some soulless (and presumably ghostless) auditorium packed with people who had given up a good night at home with the ouija board to watch him giggle at his own jokes. If I was an alien, I'd have turned around and gone home, shaking my three green heads at what passes for enlightenment, and, or, entertainment, on Planet Earth.
And why bother, really? Ghosts don't exist. Aliens? See above - they're not interested; the telly's very strange indeed.
