Richard Ayoade is probably the whitest person in the world, and he's half Nigerian.

how is it that that episode is literally several tiers of quality above the entire rest of the program's run, and I say that as someone who likes the show? It's one of the best 25 minutes of British comedy of the past 20 years, literally Fawlty Towers tier.
>>
>>63359019
British society is divided primarily by social class, not by race, i.e. all the posh cunts act and talk the same way regardless of their ethnicity, and all the chavs act and talk the same way regardless of their ethnicity. It's kind of a caste system and forms part of the absolute foundation of our culture stretching back to the Norman invasion, which gave us parliament, the justice system and the army amongst other things. The words for animals today came from the native folks at the time, e.g. "Sheep", "Cattle" etc., whereas the words for the meat are all of Norman origin e.g. "Mutton", "Lamb". This is because the ruling Normans mostly knew the animals as meat, while the oppressed native folks of the time (a mish-mash of different types) mostly knew them as the things they were raising for the rich to take away and eat whilst they ate disgusting grey bread and vegetables.

My point being that it really does feed into every aspect of the culture here in one way or another, far, far more than race does today.

Also don't forget that a lot of Welsh people are naturally practically black or at least "foreign-looking", albeit without some of the other racial dimorphisms such as skull shape, despite having no closer history with Africa than the rest of Britain. The picture is a lot more blurred here racially than it is in the heavily ghettoised USA.

The IT crowd was always super uneven.
For every "Moss is a Countdown genius" plotline, you'd get a "roy rides a window cleaner bike with a super predictable punchline" and a "Jen sneaks into Douglas's aerobics thing" plotline. And those are all from the same episode.

If you want more consistent brilliance from Linehan, watch Father Ted instead.
If you want more consistent brillance from Matt berry and a Father Ted writer, watch Toast of London instead.


(and you're wrong about the best episode of the IT Crowd "The Speech" is the best episode)

Yes, fair, I'll agree to that caveat. Really what I'm talking about applies to those who are at least second or third generation British, for example the kids of the Jamaicans who came here in the 1970s. Yeah?

Pic related is Welsh football manager Chris Coleman. He's white.

It's a widely recognised phenomenon, it extents across the entire western half of England too, to a lesser extent, making a lot of people from Birmingham, Manchester, Midlands etc. look like they're of Middle East descent when they're actually totally white genetically. Nature can be pretty bizarre.

It's called a script sperglord.

They're these things written by people, and like people have different cultural backgrounds and different influences so do the things they write. Use your brain, expand on your sources and stop being a dumb nigger.

I actually have a Welsh friend who has been stopped by airport security because they thought he was middle eastern and was travelling under a gaelic name that seemed unlikely or some shit.

He was on Utopia as well.

This desu senpai, the only black people I know are professional mathematicians and programmers earning more money than I do with the exception of a couple who are physically disabled, and it's all because they come from rich as fuck families who've been in the money for over a century, whereas I'm white and I'm literally the first person in my bloodline ever to go to university because we've been lowly farmers and bakers since time immemorial. Class is the defining aspect of culture in Britain, not ethnicity. The people you'd label as niggers purely from their speech and behaviour here are predominantly white people in most areas of the country, looting small business-owners during protests, stabbing people for pocket change, half-slurring, half-shouting in unintelligible street-talk like they have an IQ of below 66 etc., all white.

Hell, even Christian Bale and Colin Farrell were olive-skinned right from the start, they're not just Hollywood-tanned.

Now, what this doesn't explain is Matthew "Tangerine Dream" McConaughey. what the fuck.

Blacks in UK were actually educated and post slavery were mostly treated like real people.

America got the dumbest, lowest thinking violent blacks they could snatch from Africa for cheap numerous labor. UK picked out some of the good ones that could be servants.

The Welsh where originally white until they got banged out of existence by the Moores
>>
>>63364046
Yeah, we didn't need as much of the dumb muscle slaves, we already had the Irish navvies for that, kek.
>>
>>63364054
The Moores invaded the west coast of Ireland. If anything the black genes in Wales are theorised to have hopped over from Spain pretty early in human history, not during the Moorish pillaging.
>>
>>63364079
There's also a server difference from northern american blacks and southern american blacks. I spent most of my life up north and never really found black people all the intolerable, I had black friends, black teachers, black co workers who all were intelligent well thinking people. Move to the south and suddenly you see what people mean when they scream nigger.

great example OP, a 'black' man with obvious white ancestry.
>>
>>63364054
>>63364120
You both have it wrong.
Genetic studies have shown that the Irish and Welsh are genetically closest to Basque and Galicians in Spain.

This actually suggests that the native people of the British Isles looked and were the same as the people of Northern Spain. What you think is a "foreign" look is not a foreign look, its the otherway around.
>>
>>63364721
The majority of black people in the U.S. have white ancestry.
So what?

Because it wasn't and you're a cunt. The fire at the sea parks episode was insanely better.
