Warren & Johnny would understand but sometimes despair at how Alf was laughed with and not at by certain viewers. As Warren was the complete opposite of Alf & just summed him up as a shouter. When Johnny died , Warren quite rightly decided not to do Alf anymore.

@James Henderson Oh no, not another idiot who sees racism everywhere. Alf Garnet was an ignorant, misogynistic racist bigot and was always made to look like the idiot he was in ever programme. It was very funny and there was absolutely nothing racist about it.

[@MrBoybergs]

@James Henderson The point of the programme was to satire/ridicule racism, not pander to it. Warren Mtchel and Johnny Speight (the writer) were both perfectly clear when asked about this. Speight once said "I didn't create Alf Garnett. Society created him. I just reported him. I'm a grass" The fact that many bigots saw Garnett as a hero is a sad reflection on them and not the creators of the show.

[@coconuciferanuts339]

He was right about top of the pops with J.Saville !

Absolutely brilliant writing by Johnny Speight thee way he brings Mary Whitehouse into it, Alf praising her whilst in reality she wanted Alf banned.

[@synchronguru]

There's a German version of this series. Not a dub, but a full blown spin-off, with German actors, German jokes and German themes. It's called "Ein Herz und eine Seele" (literally: One Heart and One Soul") and has since become a staple of German television. Alf Garnett became Alfred Tetzlaff, aka "Ekel Alfred" (Nasty Alfred), a narrow minded, conservative tyrant, who's modeled after Adolf Hitler. His daughter dates a boy from the GDR (It was the 70s after all) and he always butts heads with him, about themes like the chancellor (at that time, a man from the socialdemocratic party) or how everything was better when he was in the Wehrmacht. The most iconic episode of the show is undoubtedly "Der Sylvesterpunsch" (The New Year's Eve punch), where Alfred tries to make punch on sylvester, but his wife constantly confuses it with bole, eventually making him go nuts with rage. Another aspect of this episode, which shows the connection between it and its british origin: Alfred insults his wife as a "dusselige Kuh", which is basically a literal translation of Alf's "you silly moo".

[@danielfisch389]

Satire at its best. I remember my dad thinking it was hilarious and I was thinking this sounds just like my dad. It was a great way to not only show what the attitude of people was in that generation, but also demonstrate how wrong it was by using this character. We find him funny, but one only has to look in the mirror to see part of him in yourself. Fortunately a lot of people are far more tolerant thesedays, but sadly I know some people who are still exactly like the character. Perhaps showing some more of the Alf Garnet comedy would make them think again at how ridiculous they are.

[@loritabarber-iw3fy]

We watched him in oz,we loved the whole series,wish they would rerun on the networks,it would break all records !😇😇😇😇

In 2021 we know, without doubt, Alfred was utterly correct and now we have to live in a dystopia created for our good.

[@colinwestwood921]

Only one would needed. BRILLIANT..👍🙋‍♂️

[@sydneycully3613]

Fantastic!

[@martinsmith1538]

Please bring this back on DVD Network. Really want to get a copy of the complete set. Missed it last time when I wanted to order I was too late. Hope it will be available soon.

[@illaveyoubutler3588]

[@bernadettemurray8260]

The first sentence was soooooo apt!!!!!!

[@chrisevans5259]

In the days when comedy was expressive and without boundaries,.....and hilariously funny.....not like the bland pc rubbish disguised as comedy today....miss them golden days of comedy

[@debragreiff1102]

But this programme was made to show up racists like Alf Garnet. It isn't a racist programme, it's the opposite.

[@debragreiff1102]

@James Henderson well not amongst people I know. We were intelligent enough to understand who the butt of the joke was.

[@debragreiff1102]

@James Henderson because people started to lack discernment and judgement. We were stopped from being able to make informed choices, and the lowest common denominator was assumed to be the whole.

[@debragreiff1102]

@James Henderson I don't know about most people, though I would think unintelligent people.

[@debragreiff1102]

@James Henderson oh give up. And the abuse stopped once the series was not being shown did it? Or abuse doesn't exist now as the show hasn't been on for however many years? Children will always be "abused" (I used to call it bullying myself), for some reason, people have never needed a TV show as an excuse.

I learnt how to swear like Alf when I was 12 years old. It had just started on the TV and we were not allowed to watch it. Incidentally, at 12 years old I was learning how to operate a lathe, pillar drills and an oxy-acetyline powered forge. No goggles or safety protection, and the best of all, the original Swafega for cleaning your hands. Yes 1967 was a great time.

[@andrewbalfour9373]

Great stuff my friend 👏

[@thomasrichards2034]

Dave that just brought back memories of the 'Heady' smell of slurry on nearly all the cutting machinery. Have you managed to get rid of the Swarfega fragrance from your hands yet!!

[@missp5152]

Ha Ha Davey - teen memories waiting ages to go Saturday shopping in the West End while boyfriend fixing the car outside ... and that smell of Swarfega 🥫👐which came with us to the shops after 6 washes.💃🕺🛍 🤭 😂

[@neilpiper9889]

Una Stubbs. Amazing.

[@MacOne53]

Alf was a great character. Unforgettable. ❤❤❤

[@stevegiller1331]

“And that middle aged peroxide albino clunk clink ponce they got in charge of it” ...And everybody laughed! 😔

[@jackRansome-p7r]

very funny programe watched him live once he was great inbetween takes he sat and talked so posh and was very freindly 😊

[@nervo6321]

I have turned into Alf Garnettt...and proud of it !

[@danw1374]

I think we all do eventually.

[@martinsmith1538]

Now you can't get this on DVD. It has been removed, would love a copy as well.

[@illaveyoubutler3588]

Go to Amazon, the box set of remaining tv and audio episodes on Network DVD, available now, along with ‘The Thoughts of Chairman Alf’, and the ITV spin off, ‘Till Death.....’, and the feature film

[@danw1374]

@@illaveyoubutler3588 I'd love to get these on DVD. I hope they haven't been edited otherwise the whole point of the show would be meaningless.

[@illaveyoubutler3588]

@@danw1374 Not edited....full episodes.....even have full episodes on audio only, where they lost the picture, so Alf’s opinions are there in their full glory....Enjoy
