O/T:- Babies and Bathwater

Gone with the Wind has now lived up to its title.
This is becoming an absolute revisionist madness and puts me in mind of that classic phrase that adorns US 'bathrooms' - 'sanitised for YOUR PROTECTION'.

Ironically the first Afro-American Oscar winner was Hattie McDaniel for her performance in Gone with the Wind. But they're trying to make it as hard to see as a copy of Mein Kampf. Bizarre.

So, you're not from 'up north' then.

Did the numbers of men overboard go up when you were on duty Sinbad?

I spent a lot of time in The Hippo which was on Bridlesmith Gate.

Me too. My favourite Nottingham club of all.

League of Gentleman was great, as is Inside No 9. I’m all for bringing down statues of slavers etc, not sure how I feel about cultural obliteration. But then again, I’m not a transgender taxi driver from a small town up north.

We need a local taxi driver for local people Tubbs

I remember someone telling me that the owner was into his kinky s3x. Later I heard he'd died, a golf ball played a huge part in his demise apparently.

Never seen demise used as a euphemism before.

Well, you have now.

Apparently it’s not for the German thing. It’s supposedly for some unfortunate references to black people by the Major. These were edited in 2013, but some places are still playing the unedited version.

Ok cheers, still getting a bit ridiculous though like Sid is saying.

I'm the offending episode he referred some people as "w*gs" and I can remember the episode still being played on Gold not long back

Guess Quentin Tarantino will have had it then . Django Unchained makes Gone With The Wind look like Thomas the Tank Engine by comparison.
