While I was looking for that, I came across a
Monty Python sketch about the Philosophy Department at The Australian University of Australia.
All the tutors were named "Bruce" & they were welcoming a new "pommie bastard" who they decided to also call Bruce to avoid confusion.
I was going to post it (very funny) until .... there was a short bit with an aboriginal person which could/would have been construed as "black face". Just a fleeting unnecessary moment which could easily have been excluded ...
Then a reference to the Philosophy department "rules", three of which were "no poofters".
That sealed it be me.
Not going to go there!
Interesting, isn't it, how a Monty Python sketch, which would have been considered so funny at the time, can now be so offensive, to some?
Actually, if anyone
should have been offended by it, it would have been Australians, for the stereotyping!
But we would have laughed at ourselves & the silly way we were presented (by pommies) , I'm sure .
Funny, that.
