Because it would provoke a tirade of screeching protest from the PC mob who think that Michael Bates' superb performance as Rangi Ram was racist and degrading; that Windsor Davies' treatment of Don Estelle was shortist; and that Melvyn Hayes character was a stereotype and therefore demeaning to gays.
I still think it's funny though; as did my Asian neighbour in Derby years ago! |

Neither does Matthew Bannister. I wonder why the standin don't and Jeremy can play them. I'm guessing Richard isn't playing the music? I don't know about Matthew, but a former BBC controller he should be trained up on the workings of the desk. |

How hard can it be? It's only reading out loud; he's mastered the out loud part, now he just has to get his head around reading. |

Come on, easy mistake - didn't Bobby the traffic girl once start reading her personal phone number by accident. |

Exactly, Nick; he did correct it and said it was inevitable, the guy's only human! |
