just like many gritty urban dramas deliberately cast ethnics to portray a hard hitting innercity slab of modern life, MM has a right to portray a more white, middle-class slab of life.

I don't watch it btw.

Nah I dont watch it either but I think it's a fictional location that is supposed to be your typical English village, it's not that unreasonable to expect other races nowadays even if most are predominantly white. I dont expect them to have to employ a large number of ehtnic minorities, but I dont see why it's imperative for the cast to be exlcusively white. Describing it as the "last bastion of Englishness" was never going to go down well either
