Graham Linehan - COWARD Bill Bailey Threw Me Under the Bus

from The Daily Heretic · host Andrew Gold

He created Father Ted, The IT Crowd, Black Books and Brass Eye — but now Graham Linehan is known as the most cancelled man in Britain. In this explosive episode of Heretics, Andrew Gold sits down with the comedy legend to reveal how his friends, colleagues, and even fellow comedians — including Bill Bailey — turned their backs on him when he refused to stay silent on gender ideology. 👉 Subscribe to Heretics Clips for more fearless, unfiltered conversations: https://www.youtube.com/@hereticsclips/videos Graham Linehan has faced the full force of cancel culture. Once a household name, he’s been deplatformed, blacklisted, and vilified — not for anything he wrote in comedy, but for daring to speak out about what he calls the “medical scandal of our time”: the push to transition children under social pressure. In this gripping interview, Graham opens up about the human cost of standing up for biological reality in an industry terrified of offending the mob. He recounts the betrayal he felt when supposed allies like Bill Bailey and other comedians refused to defend him — and how that moment became a symbol of Hollywood-style hypocrisy within British entertainment. But this isn’t just a story of loss — it’s also one of defiance and redemption. Graham reveals how, after losing his marriage, his career, and his public reputation, he’s rebuilding his life with renewed purpose. He talks about why he continues to fight for free speech, women’s rights, and truth, even when it means standing completely alone. Expect raw honesty, humour, and uncomfortable truths as Andrew and Graham discuss: The shocking cowardice of the entertainment industry How cancel culture destroys art and creativity Why silence enables extremism within activism The role of J.K. Rowling and others in shifting the debate And how Graham found strength in being the last man standing This is more than a personal story — it’s a warning about what happens when comedy, truth, and courage are sacrificed for conformity. 🎧 Watch the full Heretics episode here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtliX5oSvGk&t=3214s #Heretics #AndrewGold #GrahamLinehan #BillBailey #CancelCulture #Comedy #FreeSpeech #GenderIdeology #TransDebate #JKRowling #CultureWars #WokeCulture #TruthPodcast #HereticsClips Learn more about your ad choices.
