Granted the humor was different back then, but these sitcoms were fucked up. It portrays blacks and South Asians are lesser or cultural aliens to the white man in Britain. If anything it perpetuated racism. I’m blessed to be living in this time than the 70s and 80s could only imagine what people of color went through in England.

I'm of British Caribbean background. Born and bred in London from 1964. We grew up on this and we loved it. My dad understood that it was possible to make fun of each other without it being hatred. That's the problem today. People don't understand that working class people of all races at that time proudly called themselves British. Things were not perfect, but in many ways, race relations has now gone backwards. My dad taught us assimilation, today parents practice and teach division.

[@keithcoker5261]

Fine Actor. 'Lord of War' particularly good film. His roles are all serious now, but Marigold and his role in 'One foot in the Algarve' , shows a great talent for comedy. Wish he'd do more

Lovely to hear comments that reflect the comedy and the way the characters work together, it's just comedy at its best, comedy is comedy, it's not demeaning, each character gives as good as they get, why have times changed so much where the laughter has gone

You should really examine the state of race relations in those days before making silly comments. Only white people think it was better. Or try to pretend it was so they can bring back the old racist days.

[@softshallow7435]

I’m Indian and found these so funny when growing up 70’s 80’s even now. That’s how people were talking in those days. So the sitcoms reflected the sign of the times.

[@steinwaygrande3971]

What a brilliant man was Alf. Upsetting the PC society and taking the piss out of everybody. No one was exempt , but those were the days when comedy was comedy

[@punkoid76]

Steinwaygrande PC society didn’t exist back then, it was about another twenty years until the right wing media coined the term to brainwash people like you into thinking there’s some grand scheme behind doing right and doing wrong. Ask yourself, would you racially abuse someone to their face? You wouldn’t, the Alf Garnet character is a parody, a manifestation of what lurks within the minds of people like you, that’s why it’s so funny. They always showed him getting his comeuppance in every show, reinforcing that his attitude is wrong, before you go off on a “libtard, snowflake, leftie” rant I’ll just point out that I love Alf Garnet and Love Thy Neighbour, hilarious comedies that had a PC attitude before the right wing media invented the term, they made racists, homophobes and male chauvinists look stupid, week in, week out.

[@U2QuoZepplin]

Used to love watching "In Sickness and In Health." Winston was a real favourite in our house and he was one of the first black people I saw on TV along with legends like Lenny Henry and Floella Benjamin . I'm not old enough to remember Til Death Us Do Part but I never saw Alf Garnet as much of a hero. More like a grumpy angry old man. Can't say the same for actor Warren Mitchell though. He's more like a comedy hero for bringing us a comedy monster like Alf Garnet to laugh at.

[@sueblackwood6843]

Love watching this makes me lough bring it back on tv the old ones are the best loved him and sadly he died the same day as my mum
