Also, like Love Thy Neighbour, it has the black character of that show, Philip, played by Don Warrington, running circles around Rigsby, being far more educated, intelligent and sophisticated than Rigsby ever could. Simply this IS racist but it's reputation is constantly wheeled out by the do-gooders completely out of context. DVD transfer quality is excellent despite the age of the content, so top marks for the team that did the remastering. So, these comedies, in my view, aren't "racist", but rather portray ignorant white characters who are gotten the better of because of their racism and ignorance.

Its comic spin on racism, politics and general childish antagonism was loved by millions and remains a firm favourite to this day. So refreshing to watch a comedy from my childhood, without the crude rude swearing and disgusting jokes of nowadays, without gratuitous sex or violence.If you look at another TV show of that period, Rising Damp, it also portrays Leonard Rosseter's character, Mr Rigsby, as ignorant more than racist.
