Leslie Phillips - 'Good morning, how are you'?

Ronnie Barker - 'I've been on the WT all morning, sir'

Leslie Phillips - 'I'm so sorry to hear that, hope you get better soon'

Ronnie Barker - 'That's the Wireless Transmitter, sir'

I recall a pop group with a similar name in the mid nineteen hundred and eighty period.

The 'singer' would affect a headband sort of affair.

Were they from the North-East or thereabouts?

One can't be sure.

Poking fun using racial and cultural stereotypes. So Bernard Manning, Charlie Williams, Love Thy Neighbour, Rising Damp, On The Buses, It Aint Arf Hot Mum, The Black and White Minstrels etc etc... Sadly poking fun at some sterotypes still remain, eg, Irish, Polish, Scousers, Brummies, Aussies - though in a few years, maybe even these will be thought of as from another time....

Something most other sane countries are doing  We must also not forget the mad relative in the attic.  Brexit.  Something which contributed massively both to the black hole and to the foreseeable future lack of growth  (this is something starmer has also bizarrely tied himself to. Presumably in an attempt to placate the media/loons who think it was a good idea but which will fail in both aims)
    • Ah, so unforeseeable events didn't add to the "black hole"  Gotcha
