Humour is probably the hardest commodity to export. Jokes that make one country laugh out loud are likely to leave another nation confused and silent. But humour can also be very revealing, if not always funny. After all, jokes are often just another way of expressing anxieties, fears and even prejudices.
In Britain, one of the most enduring types of humour is satire. This is the art of making fun of people in positions of power--politicians, celebrities and even royalty--in order to draw attention to their faults.
While satire is not uniquely British, it does have a special appeal in Britain, and one of the best examples of this is the success of the satirical magazine Private Eye.

A. the readers of Private Eye
B. the powerful people satirized by Private Eye
C. the British public
D. the common people exploited by those in power
