Totally agree, I mean what's the matter with everyone? I mean if Brian isn't a good swimmer, then pointing that out can NOT be considered as racism.
I couldn't agree more here.

Why did Dermot then say it's racist? It isn't racist at all because Brian can't swim. What I do find offensive is the fact that Dermot called it racist.

I think you've all either not watched it or do not understand what I meant by the first post. I wasn't calling it racist to call Brian a bad swimmer. I think that's a pathetic thing to say, which is why I'm annoyed/confused why Dermot would, and DID call it racist.

Dermot could be seen as being racist for bringing the word racism into something completely unrelated to the colour of the person.
