You can still see it here on Tibb via YouTube. And you won't be charged for it like Netflix charges you not to show it.

It's not on Netflix it's on iPlayer, which is free (well, not really, since you're supposed to have the BBC stealth TV tax to use it).

In all seriousness, it's almost unbelievable that this was on telly not all that long ago and no one thought anything of it :joker: ... I mean, it was on for years. Can you imagine if this appeared for the first time in 2022? Twitter's servers would simply implode.

I also wonder how they can justify taking out the blackface, but keep in Andy. I guess Learning-disability-face is further down the hierarchy of Wot Is Concerning.

And also the Thai ladyboy :joker: and the gays etcI don't think the Thai character is meanti to be a "ladyboy"? I think it's a "Thai bride" (I.e. He bought her off the Internet) situation.

So the joke isn't on trans people so it's fine. Apparently "Thai face" is allowed, and also... Errrrr... Making light of sex trafficking... :think:

:joker: I'm almost certain the character was a ******, weren't there scenes where Mr Dudwey caught Ting Tong standing up to pee and shaving etc?

Apparently "Thai face" is allowed,
It's because literally the only race ever to have been enslaved is black people, and also Hollywood has absolutely zero instances of white people using makeup to appear Asian.

Am I the only one that thinks it's silly to censor a Show that was made in 2003 because of the views held in 2022? And besides if people don't like the Comedy (which they're entitled to) then just don't watch it.

This censorship business is a slippery slope, nobody should be supporting this because eventually they'll censor Shows for other reasons.

A good Michael Jackson joke Alf, I like.

I don't mean to make anyone feel Bad (I guess it's just Human Nature) but people really need to grow thicker skin when it comes to content on TV, especially older TV Shows where like it or not they had opinions of their time that are by today's standards outdated.

And I know some people will say that Little Britain was only 2003 not 1953, but it's still 19 years ago now and society has changed a lot in that time period, and in some ways for worse.
