For those of you who missed it, Richard Herring covered disability in this week's edition of Objective.
The subject was brilliantly handled, the tone was non-patronising and it was really sweet in places.
Most of all it was funny.
Like I've been saying for, well, forever; disability and comedy can mix. But the jokes should be about attitudes to disability, and not be mere pot shots at disabled people.
The show will be available on Listen Again for a few more days. Give it a go. You'll even get to hear my freakish Dr Girlfriend voice:
