Rolling back the years

Was going to go out and see Chelsea v Arsenal but hermit day meant i-player day. I saw Harry and Paul and i was horrified; no laughter track as people weren't laughing. It was every racial stereotype you can think of; was like a Canning Town pub in the 80's. They had a Japanese saying lingo instead of Ringo, an African traffic warden, guys with boot polish on their face..a la the Black and White Minstrels. Harry Enfield is not funny anymore and they wheeled out.. Lenny Henry; talk about the blind leading the blind. It wasn't making ironic fun; it fuels the ideas of the lowest common denominator, it draws attention to skin colour which in this day and age should be transcended. This comes where making fun of India has been incessant especially by the West re the Commonwealth Games; the press coverage has been nothing but negative..colonial conotations about superiority. The latest BBC bias is towards Kara Tointon on Strictly as she is from Eastenders pedigree. She is at the front of every ident and the judges have clearly been under orders to mark her up; 'falling flat on your arse? Not a problem with us'. Matt Baker looked pretty good.
