I vaguely remember a sketch show from the 90s with guys dressed as conservative women using "it's political correctness gone mad" as a refrain. But I couldn't find it on youtube.

harry enfield? little britain people? I dunno

Busom Buddies was in the 80's....but I dont know if it dealt with political correctness or not.

Edit: Oh sorry, not really related.

I was so down out until I received a wonderful Valentine from SG. WOW!! I was kind of down and hadn't even checked my personal mail in a week. One of my officers picked up my mail and brought by the court. That's where I opened. Even the judge said I had the biggest shit eating grin!! SG - thanks for brightening my world!!

I am happy at present because we have a fancy dress day coming up at school. On World Book Day we dress as a character from any book (ideally a favourite, but of course staff work with the parameters of their year group's knowledge).

I thought my vampire dress (my costume in 2008 when I went to see Jeremy Dyson) was a black dress with a red insert. But no! It's red with a black insert so will work perfectly for my Queen of Hearts costume. Along with the red wig I already have from a Red Nose Day before I became a Dwellar. And I plan to add gold cardboard hearts with velcro as I am an untidy seamstress.

I admit I've bought a crown. But it was a cheap one (cardboard) and I will be adding a heart. I also want to make a hitting stick with a heart on the end - think gold papered heart-topped wand. I don't think it's really a hitting stick, but that gets the point across - I was raised on pomp and circumstance and believe me, it's not a sceptre.

There are some characters I'd rather be, but the class did the Queen of Hearts nursery rhyme earlier this term. And even if I had the money to hire/ buy a Disney Princess costume my pride and prejudice would simply not allow it. Given my druthers I'd be Death from Neil Gaiman's The Sandman. I'd look more like Nessa from Gavin and Stacey though. Without even the added sexiness of being Welsh.
