Why should they need to put up a warning? These shows are CLASSICS, and ones which we were bought up on

'It Ain't half Hot Mum' - racist, homophobic
'Faulty Towers' - racist
'On The Buses' - misogynist
Danny La Rue - gay
Frankie Howerd - gay
'Carry On...' - Sexist
'Love Thy Neighbour' - racist
'The Black and White Minstrel Show' - racist

Admittedly, most people here have got me pegged as the person who is going to be fighting for equality, but come on - these shows/people are from an age of innocence

To quote 'Doctor Who': "You cannot rewrite history. Not one line"!
