Inspector Clouseau calls his man servant Kato, my little yellow skinned friend, is this also rascist?

[iluvmargie]

Probably!!

[jno]

Clouseau is supposed to be an idiot; of course he's a racist.

[johnny.5]

eerrrmm what was the name of Guy Gibson's dog ?

not anymore !

[Hopkirk]

Don't forget Peter Sellers sang 'Goodness Gracious Me' with Sophia Loren.

You won't hear that on Radio 2 now.

[andy-hughes]

Like so many other issues of this type, it wasn't considered demeaning or hostile or disrespectful at the time.

The important words in that explanation are the last three.

[Hopkirk]

As Matt used to say, on Simon Mayo's drive time show "different times".

[Old_Geezer]

Would have thought it was merely accurate. But I guess that means it's racist these days.

[New Judge]

It's actually "Cato" with a 'C', played by the late Bert Kwouk, who was born in Warrington.

[david small]

Why do we succumb to this ridiculous farce of restrictive speech? Racists of the world unite.....I refuse to bend the knee, except for when I pick thing up.

jno - // Clouseau is supposed to be an idiot; of course he's a racist. //

That connection means that every racist is an idiot which of course they are, but more importantly, not every idiot is a racist.

Clouseau is far too stupid to be a racist!

[douglas9401]

No, it's comedy.

[venator]

What's a rasc?

[dance2trance]

Yes the film must be destroyed immediately. Because Peter Sellers is a jew pretending to be a christian French person as well. In fact we should destroy all his films as punishment to him. So now!
