Marsh. 17-02-2018 10:28 PM

Duke was like a Tesco version of 50/50 man.

Marsh. 17-02-2018 10:29 PM

Oh wait, not 50/50, I mean Get Your Own Back!

Tracy giving her the art set at the end is the 'kind gesture' that resolves the episode too. If it had finished with her laughing and shouting 'BOG OFF' again as she walked out the door, then it might've been different.

Most if not all children's TV shows have underlying moral lessons they're trying to teach kids. I mean the show itself was set in a care home and tried to show kids in care in a positive light. So no, I wouldn't call it racist really.

Who knew you could write an essay on Tracy’s beaker as well! You could write about anything for days :laugh:

Marsh. 17-02-2018 10:30 PM

Yeah, we know it's a moral lesson but we prefer to think of this dear girl as the one who paved the way for gals like Shilpa.

OMG I just remembered these accounts im in tears






Morgan. 17-02-2018 10:33 PM

Hayley :love:

Ant. 17-02-2018 10:33 PM

I'd love to say it isn't racist but "you've got the biggest nose I've ever seen!!! :o" is treading on dangerous ground

ugh Shirley was one of the best caretakers but she's no Mike! Remember when Shirley returned for Season 5 :flutter:

gaaah @ Tracy screaming down sufia's ear as if she's deaf

And poor Sufia not getting credited for her work and having it poached by someone less talented. A very realistic story!

Im pretty sure ha drawing appeared framed in season 5 and Tracy appeared for a total of 5 minutes so who got the last laugh?! Sufia ha impact!
