Quoting Warren Mitchell on talking about playing Alf… ‘We were taking a break from filming and I was sitting down on a bench. An old man passing by recognised me, turned around and said.. “Well done. It’s good to see someone making fun of coons. Bloody lot”…
‘I replied ... I AM not making fun of black people. I am making fun of people like you’.
@charlieiscool1000 To many do gooders out there I have black friend and we constantly rip the pish outta eachother with racist and other remarks. Its a joke. There just words.
@Smurfboy1982 Words lead to discrimination, violence and inequality- as well as potentially depression, self abuse and suicide in the victim. Though the context sometimes matters, the past impact of the words combined with their continued meaning mean they are never acceptable.
I came on here tonight to learn about Archie Bunker's forefather, whose time on the air started before Archie and ended after. From seeing clips of Til Death and In Sickness, it seems Alf and Archie both mellowed out- going from racist to prejudice but well meaning. This is one of the funniest clips I ever saw of any show- us Americans can take a lesson from British comedy writers. I've watched this about 7 times now, understandy?

Aborigines are primitive creatures. The scientists are not even sure if they're Homo Sapiens Sapiens. They're intelligibly inferior and do not belong in a civilization.
in sickness came after till death do us part same actors only his wife was confined to a wheelchair. she was in a bad way, but carried on playing the role till she died
The BBC have confirmed that they will be releaseing In Sickness & in Health series 3 - 4 on DVD in 2009. series 1 - 2 are NOW on DVD. And the Christmas Specials are on DVD on November 03rd 2008.

Yep, the late great Arthur English. He used to live down the road from me in Aldershot. A very nice, unassuming man, despite his fame.

Stuff this predictable can only be resurrected by inspired delivery, but Warren Mitchell's a distinctly average comic actor.
