Linda Biscuits’ firing caused outrage from the live studio guests and fans but despite this, the comedian did not change his mind.
The four-legged assistant had a wee on the set, with Joe telling her: “Linda Biscuits, this is not the sort of behaviour I will tolerate from a crew member. No, it is unprofessional.
“There is a code of conduct and p*ssing on this set is definitely overstepping the mark. We sacked Carlos the sound man for the same thing, I can’t do double standards.Linda, you’re sacked.”
