“Dinna Bring an Arab Hame Tae Me”

[Yeats 62]

I would say they are brilliant acurate forms of art at the time they were created.

I chuckle at them. Thon Boab maybe a dee but he is a funny one. Mind he played in a fans derby a few years back and fell right on his puss after running ten yards with excitement.

Written today it might cause some eye winks, but hardly worthy of pointing out.

Agree. If folk are offended by that , might not want to listen to "Scotland the brave" There are coloured folk, wummin we gingerish genitalia etc etc...……

Bernard Manning, Love thy neighbour , rising damp , Jim Davidson (chalkie) all had their day, and looking back, it is out of order. (Black and white minstrel show anyone?)

In this current climate, I think we should be trying not to stoke fires and try and unite. Maybe just me , but ,always a dreamer. Hey ho...……….

Little Britain removed by the EBC and other networks today.

Aye, about 400 years of benefit.

I know, sh*te eh! To think Arabs, Muslims, Romans etc had the benefit of thousands of years and us pale faces only 400 hundred, reckon it’s about time we asserted ourselves properly as we’ve some catching up to do.

I think its been removed because of the portrayal of a black woman.

It was because they were blacking up. I think we've got past the days of the black and white minstrel show, but reading some of the stuff on here maybe not...
