    [News] Fawlty Towers episode removed from UKTV

    It seems to me it's mainly unacceptable racial slurs and black face comedy that's now a no-no. Harsh but fair IMO. I can honestly say I'm gonna miss Trading Places and Vic and Bob's Otis Redding stuff that's for sure. There's gonna be some collateral damage with a few fringe cases that probably...

    [News] Fawlty Towers episode removed from UKTV

    Why is it uncalled for? I don’t understand the reactions from some people on this thread. I can only assume that they are unaware of exactly how racist this episode of FT actually is. I see some posters that were fine with pulling down the statue now saying removing an old racist episode of a...

    [News] Fawlty Towers episode removed from UKTV

    I knew exactly which episode this would be and why when I read the thread title. If you think it’s still ok to air an episode where one of the white characters uses two of the most offensive racist slurs that exist for referring to people of African descent you need to give your head a wobble.

    [Politics] Brexit

    It is a novel solution to the problem. Just tell the thickos that we've left by throwing a big leaving party, banging on Big Ben a few times and minting some commemorative 50ps. Then actually subtly stay in economically, while paying contributions but now having no say in how it's run. Keep it a...

    Snap shot current level of toxic chat on NSC -virus edition

    The irony of one of NSC's most toxic posters complaining about the amount of toxic posters wasn't lost on me. This is textbook troll-like "look at me!" behaviour. Luckily I only ever have to read his shit when he puts it in his thread titles. The ignore function is a powerful tool.

    Trump

    He forgot to hold the book back to front and upside down. I guess it's hard to be as thick as Trump even when you are deliberately trying to do so.

    [Politics] Brexit

    It’s so obvious that before the end of this year there’s gonna be an announcement that “due to Covid 19, we didn’t have time to negotiate a comprehensive trade deal. We’ll try again next year.”

    [Football] Gut feeling - Albion saying up or going down?

    Working on the logic that we're capable of beating the likes of Norwich and Newcastle and that most of the good teams we have to play will likely have nothing to play for (also in empty stadiums) by the time we play them, I think we'll stay up.

    Shameful

    There's some real trolling on this thread. Blatant poking of the bee's nest just to see what reaction they can get. Mods need to step up.

    [TV] Ricky Gervais - After Life - Series 1 and 2

    I feel that this is exactly what Stephen Merchant did with their collaborations, which were much better than Gervais' solo stuff. I still like Afterlife but the series feels a bit rushed and less refined when compared to The Office, Extras and Life's Too Short.

    China After This Crisis

    [Albion] Barber, Ashworth, Potter Out !

    Even a meager 5% pay cut from a PL payroll for ONE WEEK would pay for a large number of the YEARLY salaries of a PL team's non-playing/coaching staff.

    Main Coronavirus / Covid-19 Discussion Thread

    Ebola and SARS were not pandemics. If this "runs it's course" in the way that Spanish Flu and The Plague did, we will looking at between 100 and 200 MILLION people dead. I don't think it will be that bad but it'll still be enough for me to treat overly flippant opinions on the matter with the...

It turns out...

    The Political Response

    Spending on the NHS under Cameron and May was at it's lowest level since the NHS' inception. Boris has promised to spend more but it still won't be anywhere as much as it was under New Labour..... Source: https://www.bbc.com/news/health-50290033
