As for me, born in Wythenshawe just south of Manchester and brought up in Moss Side where blacks to white ratio was something like 15:1. My parents had sense and moved out of there otherwise I might have been in prison by now. Getting back to the point, yeah, he was racist, but only in his shows. Furthermore, he attacked anyone verbally in the crowd. He didn't care if they were yellow, white, black, brown, Irish or a yid. He did jokes about them all and they all laughed. All those in the audience knew what his content would be and they still went. The only ones who complain are a) fannies and b)people who don't have a sense of humour and auto-derision.
Back on topic for racist tv shows:
"Mind your language"
"Til death do us part"
"In sickness and in health."
"It ain't half hot mum."
"Love They neighbour."
All racist as anything, but it made for good entertainment and it took racial tension off the streets. Bring them back so we can have a good old laugh again.
And are we going to ban a film that was a true story about Sir Barnes Wallis and his bouncing bomb?
yeh ok.............The topic never had anything to do with blabbering on about the racist tv shows you can find and your childhood, it's a pretty simple challenge. I don't get what's so difficult for people to comprehend about this.
It's about trying to find the TV shows which haven't been accused of racism. So yeh, nothing to do with just listing shows that are very well known as being fairly racist.
I can think of at least a couple of sitcoms, something like "My wife and kids", which always depicts white people as inferior or stupid. It was clearly trying to show a stereotype.
