The main character in Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy is a black face, but do people honestly say any face painted in black is racist? Noel is clearly using a black face in his show for artistic reasons and isn't racist in the slightest... IMO.

In particular the one that frustrates me frequently is Mitchell and Webb. Why in **s name did they have to lean on blackface?
