I've just seen a few clips from last nights "Love Thy Neighbour", it's about a black family moving into a small village, some cringe-worthy comments were being made. I shall be watching it over the weekend on 4 on demand

I ordered this yesterday, a bargain at £7.49 and I'm looking forward to it arriving. One of the best comedies the BBC did in years in my opinion.

Indeed .... I suspect that most youngsters would not "get it" .... You had to have been there, done that, to appreciate that it is only a slightly exaggerated version of corporate life.
