Cosby has ‘wonderful time’ on return to stage

Bill Cosby said he had a “wonderful time” and got a standing ovation from polite Canadian fans at his first show following a string of cancellations in the wake of sexual assault allegations from more than 15 women.

Outside, however, protesters braved below-freezing weather to shame the ticket-holders as they streamed in and were likely to do so again at the second of three performances in Ontario last night.

Cosby’s show in Kitchener was his first since November when the entertainer saw at least 10 performances get cancelled on his North American tour.
