Meanwhile, Tate’s character Katja is a smart Dutch woman with a PhD in intersectional feminism, who is both head of the city’s Chamber of Commerce and a brothel owner.
Back in 2022, Tate claimed cancel culture was waging a war on comedy: “Things can be, and often are, willfully misconstrued,” she told the BBC.
“I don't think there should be a war on jokes, I don't think there should be a war on comedy - I don't think should be a war on culture.
The line was famously coined by Catherine Tate while playing her surly schoolgirl character Lauren Cooper, who featured on her self-titled sketch series from 2004 to 2007.
The series stars American comedian Denis Leary (Rescue Me) as an obnoxious US Army Colonel who is punished by being decamped to the least important army base in the world, in the Netherlands.
