Article about Ben Elton (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1228571/Ben-Elton-launches-sick-foul-mouthed-tirade-royal-family-plugs-new-book-Australian-TV.html)

QuoteBen Elton has launched a foul-mouth tirade against the Royal Family as he shamelessly tried to plug his new book during a tour of Australia. 

QuoteThe 'comedian', who has just announced he will be moving to Australia to live, made the outrageous comments on an Australian TV comedy quiz show called Good News Week - similar to Mock The Week in Britain - on Monday night.

Australia you have my sympathies.  Furthermore you are welcome to him.  I always felt Ben Elton was overrated, and his ego to big for Britain.  Hope a continent is enough to substain his arrogance.

Elton has dual citizenship so he can live in both the UK and Australia.

It took British TV a long time before he was eliminated from the airwaves. And even longer for him to try his luck in Australia.
