The Comic Strip was great back in the day. I think the film "Whoops! Apocalypse!" was spawned from the Comic Strip - I wouldn't recommend it highly, but it's amusingly of it's time.
The Jimmy Savile thing is deadly serious, and I take it so, but I couldn't help laughing at this vid made by somebody in 2009 (long before the mainstreaming of his worst activities). It doesn't make fun of child abuse, just of the high weirdness involving the meeting of Savile, Frank Bruno, and the Yorkshire Ripper in Broadmoor. If Jerry Sadowitz's outrage counts as comedy, which it does, then so does this.
